Section
4: First Aid Measures Eye Contact:
Check
for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes
with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.
Skin
Contact:In case of
contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Cover the irritated skin
with an emollient. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before
reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse. Get medical attention.
Serious
Skin Contact:Wash with a
disinfectant soap and cover the contaminated skin with an anti-bacterial cream.
Seek medical attention.
Inhalation:
If inhaled, remove to
fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is
difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Serious
Inhalation: Not available.
Ingestion:
Do NOT induce vomiting
unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to
an unconscious person. If large quantities of this material are swallowed, call
a physician immediately. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or
waistband.

flammable to flammable in presence of open flames and sparks, of heat.
Non-flammable in presence of shocks.
Explosion
Hazards in Presence of Various Substances:
Risks
of explosion of the product in presence of mechanical impact: Not available.
Slightly explosive in presence of open flames and sparks.
Fire
Fighting Media and Instructions:
SMALL
FIRE: Use DRY chemical powder. LARGE FIRE: Use water spray, fog or foam. Do not
use water jet.
Special
Remarks on Fire Hazards: As
with most organic solids, fire is possible at elevated temperatures or by
contact with an ignition source.
Special
Remarks on Explosion Hazards:
Fine
dust dispersed in air in sufficient concentrations, and in the presences of an
ignition source is a potential dust explosion hazard.
Section
6: Accidental Release Measures Small Spill:
Use
appropriate tools to put the spilled solid in a convenient waste disposal
container. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and
dispose of according to local and regional authority requirements.
Large
Spill: Use a shovel to put
the material into a convenient waste disposal container. Finish cleaning by
spreading water on the contaminated surface and allow to evacuate through the
sanitary system. Be careful that the product is not present at a concentration
level above TLV. Check TLV on the MSDS and with local authorities.
Section
7: Handling and Storage Precautions:
Keep
away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Empty containers pose a fire
risk, evaporate the residue under a fume hood. Ground all equipment containing
material. Do not breathe dust. Wear suitable protective clothing. If you feel
unwell, seek medical attention and show the label when possible. Avoid contact
with skin and eyes. Keep away from incompatibles such as oxidizing agents.
Storage:
Keep container tightly
closed. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area.
Section
8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Engineering Controls:
Use
process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to
keep airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If user operations
generate dust, fume or mist, use ventilation to keep exposure to airborne
contaminants below the exposure limit.
Personal
Protection: Splash
goggles. Lab coat. Dust respirator. Be sure to use an approved/certified
respirator or equivalent. Gloves.
Personal
Protection in Case of a Large Spill:
Splash
goggles. Full suit. Dust respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self contained breathing
apparatus should be used to avoid inhalation of the product. Suggested
protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist BEFORE
handling this product.
