Explosion:None identified.
Fire Extinguishing Media:Water, dry chemical, foam or carbon dioxide.
Special Information:Firefighters should wear proper protective equipment
and self-contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in positive
pressure mode.
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective
clothing. With clean shovel, carefully place material into clean, dry container
and cover; remove from area. Flush spill area with water.
Keep container tightly closed. Suitable for any general chemical storage area. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
Airborne Exposure Limits:None established.
Ventilation System:A system of local and/or general exhaust is
recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust
ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the
contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work
area. Please refer to the ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of
Recommended Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):For conditions of use where
exposure to the substance is apparent and engineering controls are not feasble,
consult an industrial hygienist. For emergencies, or instances where the
exposure levels are not known, use a full-facepiece positive-pressure,
air-supplied respirator. WARNING: Air purifying respirators do not protect
workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Skin Protection:Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots,
gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where
dusting or splashing of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and
quick-drench facilities in work area.
