FIRST AID MEASURES
General
advice Consult a physician. Show this
safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.
If
inhaled If breathed in, move person into
fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Consult a physician.
In
case of skin contact Wash off with soap and
plenty of water. Take victim immediately to hospital. Consult a physician.
In
case of eye contact Flush eyes with water
as a precaution.
If
swallowed Never give anything by mouth to
an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water. Consult a physician.
5.
FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
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.
