Methods for Cleanup: Sweep up spills and transfer to suitable container for disposal; avoid creating dust clouds; wash spill site after material pickup is complete
Decontamination Procedures: Flush area with water after mechanical cleanup
Handling: Keep containers closed when not in use; minimize dust generation; use local exhaust ventilation; avoid inhaling, ingesting or contact with skin/eyes; practice good hygiene
Storage: Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated area; keep away from incompatible materials such as acids; store in tightly sealed containers
Special Requirements: Protect from moisture and heat; avoid storing near strong oxidizers, bases, or reducing agents
Exposure Limits: No established occupational exposure limits for this compound; treat as nuisance dust (OSHA PEL for particulates not otherwise regulated: 15 mg/m3 total dust, 5 mg/m3 respirable fraction)
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation or work in fume hood to reduce airborne concentrations
Personal Protective Equipment: Safety glasses or goggles for eye protection; gloves for skin protection; dust mask or respirator for handling large amounts or prolonged exposure; lab coat or protective clothing as appropriate
