Safety Data Sheet / Multicrop Multiguard Snail & Slug Killer 2
Hazards from combustion products Under fire conditions this product may emit toxic and/or irritating fumes and gases including carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Specific hazards arising from the chemical This product is non-combustible. Decomposition temperature
150°C Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters Fire fighters should wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) operated in positive pressure mode. Fight fire from safe location.
Section 6 – Accidental Release Measures
Emergency procedures Increase ventilation. Evacuate all unprotected personnel. Wear sufficient respiratory protection and full protective clothing to prevent exposure. Sweep up material avoiding dust generation or dampen spilled material with water to avoid airborne dust, then transfer material to a suitable container. Wash surfaces well with soap and water. Seal all wastes in labelled containers of subsequent recycling or disposal. Dispose of waste according to the applicable local and national regulations. If contamination of sewers or waterways occurs, inform the local water and waste management authorities in accordance with local regulations.
Section 7 – Handling and Storage
Precautions for safe handling Avoid inhalation of dust, and skin or eye contact. Use only in a well-ventilated area. Keep containers sealed when not in use. Prevent the build-up of dust in the work atmosphere. Maintain high standards of personal hygiene (i.e., washing hands prior to eating, drinking, smoking or using toilet facilities.) Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, out of direct sunlight. Store in suitable, labelled containers. Keep containers tightly closed. Store away from incompatible materials. Ensure that storage conditions comply with applicable local and national regulations.
Section 8 – Exposure Controls and Personal Protection
Occupation exposure limit values No exposure standards have been established for the mixture. However, over-exposure to some chemicals may result in enhancement of pre-existing adverse medical conditions and/or allergic reactions and should be kept to the least possible levels. Biological monitoring No biological limits allocated. Control banding Not available. Engineering controls Use with good general ventilation. If mists or vapours are produced, local exhaust ventilation should be used. Respiratory protection If engineering controls are not effective in controlling airborne exposure, then an approved respirator with a replaceable dust/particulate filter should be used. Refer to relevant regulations for further information concerning respiratory protective requirements. Reference should be made to Australian Standards AS/NZS 1715, Selection, User and Maintenance of Respiratory Protective Devices; and AS/NZS 1716, Respiratory Protective Devices, in order to make any necessary changes for individual circumstances. Eye and face protection Safety glasses with side shields, chemical goggles or full-face shield as appropriate should be used. Final choice of appropriate eye/face protection will vary according to individual circumstances. Eye protection devices should conform to relevant regulations. Eye protection should conform with Australian/ New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 1337 (series) – Eye Protectors for Industrial Applications. Hand protection Wear gloves of impervious material. Final choice of appropriate gloves will vary according to individual circumstances, i.e. methods of handling or according to risk assessments undertaken. Occupational protective gloves should conform to relevant regulations. Reference should be made to AS/NZA 2161.1: Occupational Protective Gloves – Selection, Use and Maintenance. Thermal hazards No further information available.
