Protective equipment: Wear fire-resistant clothing, use self-contained breathing apparatus.
Advice for firefighters: Stay upwind of fire. Prevent runoff into drains. Cool surrounding containers with water mist.
Combustion products: Carbon oxides, minor organic decomposition byproducts possible in extreme heat.
Personal precautions: Use protective gloves, safety goggles, and dust mask. Avoid dust inhalation.
Environmental precautions: Keep product out of drains, surface water, and soil in large spills.
Containment methods: Sweep up solid material, avoid generating dust. Place in suitable container for recovery or disposal.
Cleanup procedures: Clean spill area with water after product removal, ventilate area. Consider HEPA vacuum for fine dust. Collect wash water for disposal per local regulations.
Emergency procedures: Notify relevant authorities if large amounts released into environment.
Handling: Handle in well-ventilated areas. Avoid dust formation and buildup. Wear protective equipment as listed.
Hygiene measures: Do not eat, drink, or smoke during handling. Wash hands before breaks and after use.
Storage conditions: Store in dry, cool location away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep container tightly sealed.
Incompatibilities: Prevent contact with strong oxidizers, acids, and bases. Avoid storage with food and animal feed.
Packaging materials: Use HDPE, glass, or stainless steel containers. Avoid paper or cardboard if risk of moisture exposure exists.
Shelf life: Two years under recommended conditions, confirm with periodic inspection.
Exposure limits: No official occupational exposure limits established. Nuisance dust (particulates not otherwise classified) OSHA PEL: 15 mg/m³ (total), 5 mg/m³ (respirable).
Engineering controls: Use local exhaust ventilation if dust generated. Maintain eyewash stations and safety showers nearby.
Personal protective equipment: Wear chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile or PVC), long-sleeved garments, and splash-proof goggles. Dust mask or respirator (NIOSH N95) for airborne powder.
Environmental controls: Avoid release to water systems. Use closed systems or isolate process area if possible.
Workplace monitoring: Conduct periodic air quality checks for airborne dust levels in processing areas.
