First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
If dust from the material is inhaled, remove the affected person immediately to fresh air. Call a physician if symptoms develop or persist.
Symptoms: Coughing
Rinse skin with water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
Do not rub eye. Rinse with water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
Symptoms: Irritation of eyes
Rinse mouth. If ingestion of a large amount does occur, call a poison control centre immediately.
Medical Treatment
Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Use fire-extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding materials.
Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.
The product may form dust and can accumulate electrostatic charges, which may cause an electrical spark (ignition source).
Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials.
Firefighter Protection
Selection of respiratory protection for firefighting: follow the general fire precautions indicated in the workplace. Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Avoid inhalation of dust and contact with skin and eyes. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. For emergency responders Use personal protection recommended in section 8 of the SDS.
Environmental manager must be informed of all major spillages.
Collect dust or particulates using a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter. Do not use compressed air when cleaning.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Avoid inhalation of dust and contact with skin and eyes. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash hands after handling. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Avoid dust formation and dispersion. Periodically clean work and storage areas to prevent dust accumulation. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Take precautionary measures against static discharges when there is a risk of dust explosion.
Keep in original container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Store away from incompatible materials. Read and follow manufacturer's recommendations.
Wash hands after handling. Observe good industrial hygiene practices.
Take precautionary measures against static discharges when there is a risk of dust explosion.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Provide sufficient ventilation for operations causing dust formation. Follow above occupational exposure limit values for dusts. Ventilate as needed to control airborne dust. Use explosion-proof electrical equipment if airborne dust levels are high.
For prolonged or repeated skin contact use suitable protective gloves.
Risk of contact: Wear approved safety goggles.
In case of inadequate ventilation or risk of inhalation of dust, use suitable respiratory equipment with particle filter (type P2).
Wear suitable protective clothing. It is a good industrial hygiene practice to minimise skin contact.
Contain spills and prevent releases and observe national regulations on emissions.
