not ingest. Wear suitable protective clothing. If ingested, seek medical advice
immediately and show the container or the label. Keep away from incompatibles
such as oxidizing agents, acids, alkalis.
Storage:
Keep container tightly
closed. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Moisture sensitive.
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. Gloves. Personal
Protection in Case of a Large Spill: Safety
glasses. Lab coat. Gloves.
Exposure
Limits: TWA: 5 (mg(Al)/m)
from ACGIH (TLV) [United States] Inhalation (pyro powders, welding fumes) TWA:
10 (mg(Al)/m) from ACGIH (TLV) [United States] Inhalation (metal dust) Consult
local authorities for acceptable exposure limits.

Section
10: Stability and Reactivity Data
Stability:
The product is stable.
Instability
Temperature: Not
available.
Conditions
of Instability: Incompatible
materials, exposure to moist air or water.
Incompatibility
with various substances: Reactive
with oxidizing agents, acids, alkalis.
Corrosivity:
Not available.
Special
Remarks on Reactivity:
Moisture
sensitive. Aluminum reacts vigorously with Sodium Hydroxide. Aluminum is also
incompatible with strong oxdizers, acids, chromic anhydride, iodine, carbon
disulfide, methyl chloride, and halogenated hydrocarbons, acid chlorides,
ammonium nitrate, ammonium persulfate, antimony, arsenic oxides, barium bromate,
barium chlorate, barium iodate, metal salts
Special
Remarks on Corrosivity: In
moist air, oxide film forms which protects metal from corrosion. Aluminum is
strongly electropositive so that it corrodes rapidly in contact with other
metals.
Polymerization:
Will not occur.
