TYPES OF HAZARD / EXPOSURE	ACUTE HAZARDS / SYMPTOMS	PREVENTION	FIRE FIGHTING
FIRE	Combustible. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire.	NO open flames.	Powder, water spray, foam, carbon dioxide.
EXPLOSION

EXPOSURE
Inhalation		Avoid inhalation of dust.	Fresh air, rest.
Skin		Protective gloves.	Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.
Eyes		Safety spectacles.	First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.
Ingestion	Dizziness. Drowsiness. Tremors. Uncoordinated movements.	Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Wash hands before eating.	Induce vomiting (ONLY IN CONSCIOUS PERSONS!).

SPILLAGE DISPOSAL	PACKAGING & LABELLING
Sweep spilled substance into containers. Carefully collect remainder, then remove to safe place. Personal protection: P2 filter respirator for harmful particles. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment.	UN Hazard Class: 6.1 UN Pack Group: III	Do not transport with food and feedstuffs.

EMERGENCY RESPONSE	STORAGE
Transport Emergency Card: TEC (R)-61GT7-III	Separated from food and feedstuffs.

IMPORTANT DATA
Physical State; Appearance COLOURLESS CRYSTALS OR BEIGE POWDER. Chemical dangers On combustion, forms toxic gases. The substance decomposes on heating. Occupational exposure limits TLV not established. MAK not established.	Routes of exposure The substance can be absorbed into the body by ingestion. Inhalation risk Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a nuisance-causing concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly on spraying. Effects of short-term exposure The substance may cause effects on the nervous system.

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES	ENVIRONMENTAL DATA
Melting point: 144°C Density: 1.54 g/cm³ Solubility in water, g/100 ml at 20°C: 0.061 Vapour pressure, Pa at 20°C: negligible Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 0.57	This substance may be hazardous in the environment; special attention should be given to birds, crustacea, fish and honey bees.

NOTES

Other melting points: 136.4°C and 143.8 °C depending on crystal form.
If the substance is formulated with solvents also consult the ICSCs of these materials.
Carrier solvents used in commercial formulations may change physical and toxicological properties.
