Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs naturally, have casualty lean forward to reduce the risk of
aspiration. Seek medical attention immediately.

5. Fire-fighting Measures

Suitable extinguishing media:

carbon dioxide, dry powder, foam
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media:
If water is used, restrict pedestrian and vehicular traffic in areas where slip hazard may exist.
Hazardous combustion products:
Carbon and nitrogen oxides.
Hazards during fire-fighting:
Dust in sufficient concentration can result in an explosive mixture in air. Handle to minimize dusting and
eliminate open flame and other sources of ignition.
Protective equipment for fire-fighting:
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-protective clothing.

6. Accidental Release Measures

Cleanup:
Product becomes slippery and difficult to handle when wet.
Sweep up and shovel into suitable containers for disposal.
Avoid raising dust.
Wear suitable protective equipment.
Should not be released into the environment.
Further information:
Spills are very slippery. Restrict pedestrian and vehicular traffic in area of spill until spill is thoroughly cleaned
up.

7. Handling and Storage

Handling

General advice:
As with all industrial chemicals, use good industrial practices when handling. Avoid eye, skin, and clothing
contact. Do not inhale. Do not taste or swallow. Use only with adequate ventilation.
Protection against fire and explosion:
Combustible powder. - Avoid creating dusty conditions. - Grounding is required when emptying into a
conductive container. - When flammable solvents are present, the container must be inerted or the system
otherwise designed to prevent or contain an explosion. Seek expert advice. In addition, for products packaged
in fused-lined (coated) fiber drums, fiber drums with conductive liners, steel drums, steel pails, and Type " C "
FIBC (bulk bags), or other conductive the following instructions also apply: - Always ground this package

before emptying. The user is responsible for designing the system to handle solid and ensuring proper training
of employees in the system's use.
Storage

General advice:
Keep container tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place.
