Eye Contact: Gently rinse eyes with clean water for several minutes, lifting eyelids occasionally. Immediate medical attention recommended.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth; do not induce vomiting. Seek immediate medical evaluation. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically and provide supportive care for mucous membrane irritation or allergic response.

5. Fire-Fighting Measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, dry chemical, CO2, foam
Unsuitable Media: Avoid direct stream of water on burning chemical mass
Specific Hazards: Emits toxic gases such as nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide/chloride vapors under fire conditions
Protective Equipment: Firefighters use self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear
Special Procedures: Approach fire from upwind, minimize run-off to waterways, cool exposed containers with water
Explosion Data: No sensitive properties reported; dust buildup may create risk in confined spaces

6. Accidental Release Measures

Spill Cleanup: Evacuate area, ventilate contaminated space, wear chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles, and NIOSH-approved respirator if dust is generated
Containment: Prevent spread using inert absorbent material such as sand or vermiculite
Cleanup Procedures: Collect material in sealable containers for disposal, wash spill area with water and detergent
Personal Precautions: Avoid direct contact, prevent inhalation of dust, remove all sources of ignition
Environmental Precautions: Keep out of drains and open bodies of water, notify authorities in event of significant spillage

7. Handling and Storage

Handling: Use in chemical fume hood, avoid skin and eye contact, never handle without appropriate personal protection
Hygienic Practices: No open food or drink in lab areas, thorough hand-washing after handling, segregate from incompatible substances
