Wash skin with soap and water.

Symptoms:

May cause physical abrasion in contact with skin.

Eye Contact

Irrigate with eyewash solution or clean water, holding the eyelids apart, for at least 10 minutes.

Symptoms:

May cause physical abrasion in contact with eyes.

Ingestion/Swallowing

Wash out mouth with water and give 200-300 ml (half a pint) of water to drink.

Immediate Medical Attention Required

Obtain immediate medical attention if ill effects occur. Obtain medical attention. Unlikely to be required but if necessary treat symptomatically.

Medical Treatment

Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment

Engineering Controls

Provide adequate ventilation. Atmospheric levels should be controlled in compliance with the occupational exposure limit.

Hand Protection

Wear suitable protective clothing and gloves.

Eye Protection

Wear suitable eye/face protection. If dust is likely to be generated: Goggles giving complete protection to eyes.

Respiratory Protection

A suitable dust mask should be worn if exposure to levels above the occupational exposure limit is likely. The selection of a suitable mask will depend upon the likely atmospheric concentration and the performance data of the mask. A suitable dust mask or dust respirator with filter type P may be appropriate.

Skin/Body Protection

Wear suitable protective clothing and gloves.
