Fire Hazards in Presence of Various Substances: Not available


Explosion Hazards in Presence of Various Substances:
Risks of explosion of the product in presence of mechanical impact 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
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 evacuating through the sanitary system.

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. Keep away from
incompatibles such as oxidizing agents.
Storage: Store in tightly closed container in a cool, & dry place.

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: Safety glasses, 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.
