[Fire Fighting] Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. Water runoff can cause environmental damage. Dike and collect water used to fight fire. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Will burn if involved in a fire. This material in sufficient quantity and reduced particle size is capable of creating a dust explosion. To extinguish fire use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or chemical foam. Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. | |
[Fire Potential] May burn but does not ignite readily. | |
[Ingestion] Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. | |
[Inhalation] Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid. | |
[Skin] Get medical aid if irritation develops or persists. Wash clothing before reuse. Flush skin with plenty of soap and water. | |
[Eyes] Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid. | |
[Storage] Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Store protected from moisture. | |
[Handling] Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use with adequate ventilation. | |
[Inhalation] May cause respiratory tract irritation. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. | |
[Skin] May cause skin irritation. | |
[Eyes] May cause eye irritation. | |
[Ingestion] May cause irritation of the digestive tract. May cause muscle tremor and impaired motor function. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. | |
[Hazards] Containers may explode when heated. | |
