First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Move to a dust free area, drink water and blow nose.
Symptoms: Nose and throat irritation
Rinse affected areas with water and wash gently. Do not rub or scratch exposed skin.
Symptoms: Skin irritation
Flush abundantly with water. Do not rub eyes.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Use extinguishing agent suitable for surrounding combustible materials.
Non combustible products. Packaging and surrounding materials may be combustible.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Restore the situation to normal as quickly as possible.
Pick up large pieces and use a vacuum cleaner fitted with high efficiency filter (HEPA). If brushing is used, ensure that the area is wetted down first. Do not use compressed air for clean-up.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
The Process or processes should be designed to limit the amount of handling. Whenever possible, handling should be carried out under controlled conditions (i.e., use dust exhaust system). Regular good housekeeping will minimise secondary dust dispersal.
Store in original packaging in dry area whilst awaiting use. Always use sealed and visibly labelled containers. Avoid damaging containers.
