| [Fire Fighting] Use any means suitable for extinguishing surrounding fire. In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode. | |
| [Fire Potential] Not considered to be a fire hazard. | |
| [Ingestion] Give several glasses of water to drink to dilute. If large amounts were swallowed, get medical advice. | |
| [Inhalation] Remove to fresh air. Get medical attention for any breathing difficulty | |
| [Skin] Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse. Get medical attention if irritation develops. | |
| [Eyes] Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting upper and lower eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention if irritation persists. | |
| [Storage] Keep in a tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Protect against physical damage. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product. | |
| [Ingestion] Extremely large oral dosages may produce gastrointestinal disturbances. | |
| [Inhalation] Hazard is principally that of a nuisance dust. Coughing or shortness of breath may occur in cases of excessive inhalation. | |
| [Skin] May cause irritation with redness and pain. | |
| [Eyes] No adverse effects expected but dust may cause mechanical irritation. | |
| [Hazards] Fine dust dispersed in air in sufficient concentrations, and in the presence of an ignition source is a potential dust explosion hazard. | |
| [Personal Protection] Wear protective gloves and clean body-covering clothing. Use chemical safety goggles. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area. | |
| [Respirators] If the exposure limit is exceeded, a half-face dust/mist respirator may be worn for up to ten times the exposure limit or the maximum use concentration specified by the appropriate regulatory agency or respirator supplier, whichever is lowest. A full-face piece dust/mist respirator may be worn up to 50 times the exposure limit, or the maximum use concentration specified by the appropriate regulatory agency, or respirator supplier, whichever is lowest. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-facepiece positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING: Air-purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres. | |
