Specific hazards : May form explosible dust-air mixture if dispersed. This material is toxic to aquatic life with long
arising from the lasting effects. Fire water contaminated with this material must be contained and prevented
chemical from being discharged to any waterway, sewer or drain.

Special protective : Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if there is
actions for fire-fighters a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. Move
containers from fire area if this can be done without risk. Use water spray to keep fire-
exposed containers cool.
Special protective : Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus
equipment for fire-fighters (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure mode.
Environmental precautions : Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains and
sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution
(sewers, waterways, soil or air). Water polluting material. May be harmful to the environment
if released in large quantities. Collect spillage.
Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in a segregated and approved area. Store in
Conditions for safe storage, : original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, away
including any from incompatible materials (see Section 10) and food and drink. Store locked up. Eliminate all
incompatibilities ignition sources. Separate from oxidizing materials. Keep container tightly closed and sealed
until ready for use. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright
to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabeled containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid
environmental contamination. See Section 10 for incompatible materials before handling or use.

Appropriate engineering : Use only with adequate ventilation. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other
controls engineering controls to keep worker exposure to airborne contaminants below any recommended
or statutory limits. The engineering controls also need to keep gas, vapor or dust concentrations
below any lower explosive limits. Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment.
: In some cases, dust collection, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will
Environmental exposure be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.

Conditions to avoid : Avoid the creation of dust when handling and avoid all possible sources of ignition (spark or
flame). Take precautionary measures against electrostatic discharges. To avoid fire or
explosion, dissipate static electricity during transfer by grounding and bonding containers and
equipment before transferring material. Prevent dust accumulation.
Incompatible materials : Reactive or incompatible with the following materials: oxidizing materials.
Hazardous decomposition : Under normal conditions of storage and use, hazardous decomposition products should not be
products produced.
