TYPES OF HAZARD / EXPOSURE	ACUTE HAZARDS / SYMPTOMS	PREVENTION	FIRST AID / FIRE FIGHTING
FIRE	Combustible. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire.	NO open flames.	Use water spray, powder, alcohol-resistant foam, carbon dioxide.
EXPLOSION	Finely dispersed particles form explosive mixtures in air.	Closed system, ventilation, explosion-proof electrical equipment and lighting. Prevent deposition of dust.

EXPOSURE		PREVENT DISPERSION OF DUST!
Inhalation	Cough. Sore throat.	Use local exhaust or breathing protection.	Fresh air, rest.
Skin	Redness.	Protective gloves.	Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.
Eyes	Redness.	Wear safety goggles.	Rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible).
Ingestion	Sore throat.	Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work.	Rinse mouth. Give one or two glasses of water to drink.

SPILLAGE DISPOSAL	PACKAGING & LABELLING
Personal protection: particulate filter respirator adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Sweep spilled substance into covered containers. If appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.	Marine pollutant. EC Classification Symbol: T, N; R: 23/24/25-33-50/53; S: (1/2)-28-36/37-45-60-61 UN Classification UN Hazard Class: 9; UN Pack Group: III; UN Pack Group: II GHS Classification Signal: Warning May be harmful if swallowed May be harmful in contact with skin Toxic to aquatic life

EMERGENCY RESPONSE	SAFE STORAGE
Transport Emergency Card: TEC (R)-90GM7-III. NFPA Code: H2; F1; R0.	Provision to contain effluent from fire extinguishing. Separated from strong acids and oxidants. Store in an area without drain or sewer access.

IMPORTANT DATA

Physical State; Appearance
COLOURLESS CRYSTALS WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR.

Physical dangers
Dust explosion possible if in powder or granular form, mixed with air.

Chemical dangers
Decomposes on heating and on burning. This produces toxic fumes including nitrogen oxides. Reacts with strong oxidants and strong acids.

Occupational exposure limits
TLV: 10mg/m³ as TWA; A4 (not classifiable as a human carcinogen); (ACGIH 2006).

Routes of exposure
The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation, through the skin and by ingestion.

Inhalation risk
Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly.

Effects of short-term exposure
The substance is irritating to the eyes and respiratory tract.

Effects of long-term or repeated exposure
The substance may have effects on the kidneys. This may result in impaired functions. The substance may have effects on the blood. This may result in anaemia.

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES	ENVIRONMENTAL DATA
Boiling point: 302°C Melting point: 53°C Density: 1.2 g/cm³ Solubility in water: very poor Vapour pressure at 20°C: negligible Relative vapour density (air = 1): 5.8 Flash point: 153°C c.c. Auto-ignition temperature: 634°C Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 3.5	The substance is toxic to aquatic organisms. It is strongly advised not to let the chemical enter into the environment. The substance may cause long-term effects in the aquatic environment.

NOTES

Technical product may contain a carcinogenic impurity (4-aminobiphenyl).
