First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Call a poison center or doctor/physician if you feel unwell.

Skin contact

Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.

Eye contact

Rinse with water. Do not rub eye. Make sure to remove any contact lenses from the eyes before rinsing. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.

Ingestion

Rinse mouth thoroughly if dust is ingested. Get medical attention if any discomfort occurs.

Immediate Medical Attention

Treat symptomatically.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Dry chemical. Foam.

Unsuitable media

Carbon dioxide (CO2).

Specific hazards

Explosion hazard: Avoid generating dust; fine dust dispersed in air in sufficient concentrations and in the presence of an ignition source is a potential dust explosion hazard. During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed.

Instructions

Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials. Containers close to fire should be removed or cooled with water.

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.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Environmental

Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground unless authorized by permit.

Cleanup methods

Collect dust using a vacuum cleaner equipped with HEPA filter.

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

No specific precautions due to the small quantities handled. However: Explosion-proof general and local exhaust ventilation. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Provide adequate ventilation. Do not breathe dust. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not taste or swallow. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Keep the workplace clean. Observe good industrial hygiene practices.

Storage

Store in original tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry place.

Hygiene

When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Keep the workplace clean. Observe good industrial hygiene practices.

Fire prevention

Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

No specific recommendation made, but protection against nuisance dust must be used when the general level exceeds 10 mg/m3.

Hands

Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves. Suitable gloves can be recommended by the glove supplier.

Eyes

It is a good industrial hygiene practice to minimize eye contact. Risk of contact: Wear dust goggles.

Respiratory

No protection is ordinarily required under normal conditions of use and with adequate ventilation. If engineering measures are not sufficient to maintain concentrations of dust particulates below the OEL, suitable respiratory protection must be worn. In the United States of America, if respirators are used, a program should be instituted to assure compliance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134.

Skin/Body

No skin protection is ordinarily required under normal conditions of use. In accordance with good industrial hygiene practices, precautions should be taken to avoid skin contact.
