Fire-fighting measures

• Suitable extinguishing media
  Water fog. Foam. Dry chemical powder. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Apply extinguishing media carefully to avoid creating airborne dust.

• Unsuitable extinguishing media
  Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.

• Specific hazards arising from the chemical
  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.

• Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters
  Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire.

• Fire-fighting equipment/instructions
  In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk. Use water spray to cool unopened containers.

• General fire hazards
  Heat may cause the containers to explode. May form combustible dust concentrations in air.

Accidental release measures

• Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
  Keep unnecessary personnel away. Dust deposits should not be allowed to accumulate on surfaces, as these may form an explosive mixture if they are released into the atmosphere in sufficient concentration. Use only non- sparking tools. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Ensure adequate ventilation. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.

• Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
  ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Avoid dispersal of dust in the air (i.e., clearing dust surfaces with compressed air).
  Large Spills: Sweep or shovel up material and place in a clearly labeled container for waste. Following product recovery, flush area with water.
  Small Spills: Collect dust using a vacuum cleaner equipped with HEPA filter.
  Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.

• Environmental precautions
  Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground.

Handling and storage

• Precautions for safe handling
  Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Routine housekeeping should be instituted to ensure that dusts do not accumulate on surfaces. Dry powders can build static electricity charges when subjected to the friction of transfer and mixing operations. Provide adequate precautions, such as electrical grounding and bonding, or inert atmospheres. Explosion proof exhaust ventilation is recommended. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Avoid prolonged exposure.

• Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
  Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame.

Exposure controls/personal protection

Occupational exposure limits

US OSHA Table Z-1 Limits for Air Contaminants (29 CFR 1910.1000)

• Biological limit values
  No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s).

• Exposure guidelines
  No exposure standards allocated.

• Appropriate engineering controls
  Explosion-proof general and local exhaust ventilation. Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment

• Eye/face protection  Skin protection
  Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).

• Hand protection
  For prolonged or repeated skin contact use suitable protective gloves.

• Other
  Wear suitable protective clothing.

• Respiratory protection
  If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below recommended exposure limits (where applicable) or to an acceptable level (in countries where exposure limits have not been established), an approved respirator must be worn.

• Thermal hazards
  Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.

• General hygiene considerations
  When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protect ive equipment to remove contaminants.
