Suitable extinguishing media Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.

Special protective equipment for fire-fighters Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary.

 

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions Wear respiratory protection. Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas. Ensure adequate

ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Avoid breathing dust.

Environmental precautions Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains. Discharge into the

environment must be avoided.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up Pick up and arrange disposal without creating dust. Sweep up and shovel. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

 

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Precautions for safe handling Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols.

Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed. Normal measures for preventive fire

protection.

Conditions for safe storage Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Store in cool place.

 

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face particle respirator

type N99 (US) or type P2 (EN 143) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the

respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator. Use respirators and

components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN

(EU).

Hand protection Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique (without

touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves

after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands.

The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the

standard EN 374 derived from it.

Eye protection Face shield and safety glasses Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate

government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).

Skin and body protection Complete suit protecting against chemicals, The type of protective equipment must be selected according

to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.

Hygiene measures Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Wash hands before breaks and immediately after handling the

product.
