6. Accidental Release Measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Wear protective equipment. Keep unprotected persons away.

Environmental precautions

• Use neutralizing agent.
• Ensure adequate ventilation.
• Do not flush with water or aqueous cleansing agents

Methods and materials for containment and clean up

• Absorb with liquid-binding material (sand, diatomite, acid binders, universal binders, sawdust).
• Use neutralizing agent.
• Dispose contaminated material as waste according to item 13.
• Ensure adequate ventilation.
• Do not flush with water or aqueous cleansing agents

• Protect from heat and direct sunlight.

8. Exposure Controls / Personal Protection

Exposure Standards

Engineering controls

• Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed.
• Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing.
• Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.
• Store protective clothing separately.
• Avoid contact with the eyes.
• Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.

Personal protective equipment

Eye and face protection

• Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
• Tightly sealed goggles.

Skin protection

• Protective gloves .
• The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation.
• Due to missing tests no recommendation to the glove material can be given for the product/ the preparation/ the chemical mixture.
• Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation.
• Material of gloves
• The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. As the product is a preparation of several substances, the resistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance and has therefore to be checked prior to the application.
• Penetration time of glove material.
• The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.

Body protection

Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.

Respiratory protection

In case of brief exposure or low pollution use respiratory filter device. In case of intensive or longer exposure use self-contained respiratory protective device.

Other adverse effects

• Water hazard class 2 (Self-assessment): hazardous for water
• Do not allow product to reach ground water, water course or sewage system.
• Must not reach bodies of water or drainage ditch undiluted or unneutralized.
• Danger to drinking water if even small quantities leak into the ground.
• Also poisonous for fish and plankton in water bodies.
