First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

If breathed in, move person into fresh air. If unconscious, place in recovery position and seek medical advice.

Skin contact

First aid is not normally required. However, it is recommended that exposed areas be cleaned by washing with soap and water.

Eye contact

Remove contact lenses. Protect unharmed eye.

Ingestion

Do not give milk or alcoholic beverages. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If symptoms persist, call a physician.

Immediate Medical Attention

If symptoms persist, call a physician.

Medical Treatment

No hazards which require special first aid measures.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment. Water spray Foam

Specific hazards

Organic dusts at sufficient concentration can form explosive mixtures in air.

Instructions

Standard procedure for chemical fires. Product is compatible with standard fire-fighting agents.

Firefighter Protection

In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing dust. Material can create slippery conditions. Persons not wearing protective equipment should be excluded from area of spill until clean-up has been completed.

Environmental

Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.

Cleanup methods

Pick up and arrange disposal without creating dust.

Materials: Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

07

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Avoid dust formation. Ensure all equipment is electrically grounded and bonded before beginning transfer operations. The material can accumulate static charge and can therefore cause electrical ignition of flammable atmospheres. Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area. Maintain good housekeeping. Do not permit dust layers to accumulate, for example, on floors, ledges, and equipment, in order to avoid any potential for dust explosion hazards.

Storage

No smoking.

Hygiene

Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area. Maintain good housekeeping.

Fire prevention

No smoking. Ensure all equipment is electrically grounded and bonded before beginning transfer operations. The material can accumulate static charge and can therefore cause electrical ignition of flammable atmospheres.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed. General room ventilation should be adequate for normal conditions of use. However, if unusual operating conditions exist, provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) ventilation to maintain exposure below exposure guidelines (if applicable) or below levels that cause known, suspected or apparent adverse effects.

Hands

Wear resistant gloves (consult your safety equipment supplier).

Eyes

Safety glasses

Respiratory

No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required.

Skin/Body

Wear as appropriate: Safety shoes
