Emergency Overview
upper respiratory tract. Dust suspended in air in critical proportions and in the presence of an ignition source
may present an explosion hazard.
Section 4. First Aid Measures
Check for and remove any contact lenses. Flush with running water for at least 15 minutes. Do not use an
Eye Contact
eye ointment. Seek medical attention.
After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. Gently and thoroughly wash the contaminated
Skin Contact
skin with running water and non-abrasive soap. Be particularly careful to clean folds, crevices, creases and
groin. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. Wash
contaminated clothing before reusing.
Allow the victim to rest in a well ventilated area. Seek immediate medical attention
Inhalation
Do not induce vomiting. Immediately give two glasses of water, a little at a time. Never give anything by
Ingestion
mouth to an unconscious person. Call a physician. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, lower head below waist
to prevent fluid from entering the lungs.

Special Remarks on Explosion As with any dry material, pouring or allowing to free-fall or to be conveyed through chutes or pipes can
Hazards accumulate and generate electrostatic sparks, potentially causing ignition of the material itself, or of any
flammable materials which may come in contact with the material or its container.
Section 6. Accidental Release Measures
Put spilled solid in a waste disposal container. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated
Small Spill
surface and dispose of according to local and regional authority requirements.
Evacuate area of nonessential personnel. Use safety glasses and gloves. Respiratory protection is required
Large Spill
only if a dust is generated. Scoop or shovel spilled solids into containers. Avoid creating a dust. Prevent
spilled product or contaminated wash water from entering drinking water supplies or streams.
Section 7. Handling and Storage
Keep container dry. Keep in a cool place. Ground all equipment containing material. Keep container tightly
Storage
closed. Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place. Combustible materials should be stored away from extreme
heat and away from strong oxidizing agents.
Prolonged storage above 110 F will initiate chemical changes resulting in loss of purity.
DO NOT breathe dust. Do not ingest. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. DO NOT use in presence of
