First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Move subject to fresh air.

Skin contact

Wash affected skin areas thoroughly with soap and water. Consult a physician if irritation persists.

Eye contact

Flush eyes with water. Consult a physician if irritation persists.

Ingestion

If swallowed, give 2 glasses of water to drink. Consult a physician. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

carbon dioxide, dry chemical, water spray

Unsuitable media

DO NOT use a solid stream of water. A solid stream of water directed at this material may create a potentially explosive airborne dust mixture.

Specific hazards

Dusts at sufficient concentrations can form explosive mixtures with air. The minimum ignition temperature of dust layer is 343C/649F. The minimum ignition temperature OF DUST CLOUD IS 443C/829F.

Instructions

Use water spray to control heat.

Firefighter Protection

As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus (pressure-demand, NIOSH approved or equivalent) and full protective gear.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Keep spectators away. Eliminate all ignition sources. Floor may be slippery; use care to avoid falling. Avoid breathing dust. Use water spray to keep dusting to a minimum. Transfer spilled material to suitable containers for recovery or disposal.

Environmental

Keep spills and cleaning runoff out of municipal sewers and open bodies of water.

Cleanup methods

Transfer spilled material to suitable containers for recovery or disposal.

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Avoid high concentrations of dust in air and accumulation of dust on equipment. An airborne dust of this material can create a dust explosion. When handling and processing this material local exhaust ventilation may be required to control dust and reduce exposure to vapors. To prevent dust explosions employ bonding and grounding for operations capable of generating static electricity.

Storage

Store away from excessive heat (e.g. steampipes, radiators), from sources of ignition and from reactive materials.

Fire prevention

Store away from sources of ignition. To prevent dust explosions employ bonding and grounding for operations capable of generating static electricity.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Use explosion proof local exhaust ventilation with a minimum capture velocity of 150 ft/min. (0.75 m/sec.) at the point of dust or mist evolution. Refer to the current edition of Industrial Ventilation: A Manual of Recommended Practice published by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists for information on the design, installation, use, and maintenance of exhaust systems.

Hands

Cotton or canvas gloves.

Eyes

Use chemical splash goggles (ANSI Z87.1 or approved equivalent). Eye protection worn must be compatible with respiratory protection system employed.

Respiratory

A respiratory protection program meeting either EU requirements (see EU Directives 89/656/EEC and 89/686/EEC) or OSHA 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use. None required if airborne concentrations are maintained below the exposure limit listed in 'Exposure Limit Information'. For airborne concentrations up to 10 times the exposure limit, wear a NIOSH approved (or equivalent) half-mask, air-purifying respirator. Air-purifying respirators should be equipped with NIOSH approved (or equivalent) HEPA filters.
