First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

If breathing has stopped, perform artificial respiration and obtain medical assistance immediately! If breathing is difficult, provide fresh air and call physician.

Skin contact

For skin burns from arc radiation, promptly flush with cold water. Get medical attention for burns or irritations that persist. To remove dust or particles wash with mild soap and water

Symptoms: skin burns from arc radiation, dust or particles

Eye contact

For radiation burns due to arc flash, see physician. To remove dusts or fumes flush with water for at least fifteen minutes. If irritation persists, obtain medical assistance.

Symptoms: radiation burns due to arc flash, dusts or fumes

Immediate Medical Attention

Call a physician immediately. Call emergency physician to the scene of the accident. Obtain medical assistance immediately for inhalation. See physician for radiation burns.

Medical Treatment

Call emergency physician to the scene of the accident. Call a physician immediately.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

No specific recommendations for welding consumables. Welding arcs and sparks can ignite combustible and flammable materials. Use the extinguishing media recommended for the burning materials and fire situation.

Specific hazards

Not applicable

Firefighter Protection

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus as fumes or vapors may be harmful.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Environmental

Refer to section 13.

Cleanup methods

Solid objects may be picked up and placed into a container. Liquids or pastes should be scooped up and placed into a container.

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Handle with care to avoid stings and cuts. Wear gloves when handling welding consumables. Avoid exposure to dust. Do not ingest. Some individuals can develop an allergic reaction to certain materials. Retain all warning and identity labels.

Storage

Keep separate from chemical substances like acids and strong bases, which could cause chemical reactions.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Ensure sufficient ventilation, local exhaust, or both, to keep welding fumes and gases from breathing zone and general area. Use respirator or air supplied respirator when welding or brazing in a confined space, or where local exhaust or ventilation is not sufficient to keep exposure values within safe limits.

Respiratory

Use respirator or air supplied respirator when welding or brazing in a confined space, or where local exhaust or ventilation is not sufficient to keep exposure values within safe limits.

Stability and Reactivity

Chemical stability, hazardous reactions, and incompatible materials

Stability

Stable at normal conditions

Reactivity

Non Reactive unless gets in contact with chemical substances like acids or strong bases could cause generation of gas

Hazardous reactions

Not applicable

Avoid

This product is only intended for normal welding purposes.

Incompatible

Not applicable

Decomposition

When this product is used in a welding process, hazardous decomposition products would include those from the volatilization, reaction or oxidation of the materials listed in section 3 and those from the base metal and coating. Fumes are normally not generated in submerged arc welding, provided that a sufficient flux bedding is used to prevent the arc from burning through. If the arc burns through the flux bedding, reasonably expected fume constituents of this product would include fluorides and oxides of metals such as Mg, Ca, Na, Al, Fe, Mn, Si. Reasonably expected gaseous products would include carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides and ozone.
