Other Ingredients: No known hazardous preservatives or additives
Inhalation: Move person to fresh air, seek medical attention if symptoms like wheezing, coughing, or chest tightness persist
Eye Contact: Rinse eyes with large quantities of water, hold eyelids open, remove contact lenses, consult physician if irritation develops
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing, wash area thoroughly with soap and water, watch for signs of irritation or allergic reaction
Ingestion: Drink water to dilute, seek medical attention if large amounts are swallowed or if lasting discomfort occurs
Symptoms of Exposure: Redness, itching, watering of eyes, respiratory discomfort
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam, water spray
Hazards from Combustion: Fine powder can form explosive mixtures in air, carbon oxides and nitrogen oxides possible during burning
Special Protective Gear: Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes
Advice for Firefighters: Approach fire from upwind, avoid breathing smoke, cool unopened containers with water spray
Personal Protection: Use dust mask, safety glasses, disposable gloves; avoid direct contact with powder
Environmental Precautions: Do not release into drains or watercourses; contain spillage to avoid environmental contamination
Containment: Sweep up without creating dust, use wet methods if possible
Clean-up Methods: Store collected material in tightly closed containers for disposal, ventilate area, wash surfaces with water
Handling: Use in well-ventilated areas, minimize dust generation, avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing
Storage Conditions: Store in cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, keep container tightly closed
Incompatibles: Strong acids, oxidizers
Special Requirements: Label containers clearly, avoid moisture exposure, use secondary containment for large quantities, keep separate from food and beverages
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation where dust is produced, general room ventilation helps reduce airborne particles
Personal Protective Equipment: Safety glasses with side-shields, latex or nitrile gloves, laboratory coat
Respirators: NIOSH-approved dust mask for routine use, high-efficiency particulate filter for large spills or accidental releases
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands thoroughly after handling, remove contaminated clothing before leaving work area, avoid eating and drinking in work area
