FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing products:
• Suitable extinguishing product : foam, extinguishing powder, sand, earth, CO2
• Unsuitable extinguishing products: high jet water
Specific hazards relating to the substance
• Avoid contact with oxidizing agents
• Combustion products: smoke, CO, CO2. Acrolein may form at high temperatures
Instructions for firefighters:
In the event of a fire, quickly isolate the scene by evacuating all persons in the vicinity of the incident.
Firefighters must wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus with the entire face in positive pressure mode. Firefighters' clothing, in accordance with European standard EN 469, will provide a basic level of protection against chemical incidents.
MEASURES TO BE TAKEN IN THE EVENT OF ACCIDENTAL RELEASE
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Same safety precautions as with chemicals. Do not touch or walk on broken material. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.
Precautions for environmental protection:
Prevent the product from spreading on roads and drains by using sand, earth or suitable materials.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning :
• Small spill : Stop spill if safe to do so. Remove container from spill. Dilute with water and mop up if water soluble. Alternatively, or if not water soluble, absorb with dry inert material and make available to appropriate waste disposal personnel in a suitable container.
• Large spill : Stop the leak if it is safe to do so. Remove the container from the flow area. Avoid spreading into sewers, waterways, basements or confined spaces. Wash the spill without an effluent treatment plant or use non-combustible liquid-binding material (sand, earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth) and make it available to authorized waste collection personnel in a container according to local regulations.
HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling
• General occupational hygiene advice : same precautions as for a chemical product. It is forbidden to eat, drink and smoke in the places where the material is handled, stored and processed. Workers must wash their hands and face before eating, drinking or smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering a catering area.
Safe storage conditions:
Store in original container protected from light in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, away from incompatible materials and food and drink. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready to use. Containers that have been opened should be carefully resealed and left upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabeled containers. Use appropriate containment to prevent environmental contamination.
EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Parameter control: Not applicable.
Exposure control
• Individual protection measures:
- Hygiene measures: wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemicals and before eating, smoking or using the toilet and at the end of the work day. Proper techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing.
- Eye protection: safety glasses
- Body protection: select personal protective equipment for the body approved by a specialist according to the task to be carried out and the risks involved before handling the product.
- Hand protection: Wear chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard at all times when handling a chemical if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary.
- Skin protection: select appropriate, specialist-approved protective measures for footwear and skin based on the task to be performed and the risks involved before handling the product.
- Respiratory protection : Use a properly fitted artificial respirator conforming to an approved standard if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. The selection of respiratory equipment should be based on knowledge or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the limits of safe work.
- Environmental exposure control : verify that emissions from ventilation and industrial work equipment comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation.
