Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water, offer small amounts of water to drink, do not induce vomiting, contact poison control center or physician promptly
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, alcohol-resistant foam, or water spray
Hazards from Combustion: Combustion can release toxic fumes such as nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide
Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus
Special Procedures: Cool containers with water spray to prevent overheating, avoid contamination of runoff from firefighting with waterways
Personal Precautions: Use personal protective equipment including gloves, goggles, and suitable respiratory protection
Environmental Precautions: Prevent further leakage or spills, avoid discharge into drains, surface water, or soil
Clean-Up Procedures: Sweep up and place spilled material in suitable containers for disposal, ventilate contaminated area, wash residual material with water and detergent
Safe Handling: Minimize dust generation, avoid contact with skin and eyes, wash hands thoroughly after use, use with local exhaust ventilation, never handle without suitable PPE
Storage Conditions: Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location, protect from direct sunlight and incompatible materials
Incompatibilities: Strong oxidizers, strong acids, strong bases; avoid prolonged exposure to air and humidity
Occupational Exposure Limits: No OSHA, NIOSH, or ACGIH limits established; handle with caution as low-level toxicity data available
Engineering Controls: Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls
Personal Protection: Wear appropriate chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile or neoprene), safety goggles, laboratory coat, and in cases of dusty operations, approved respirator
