First-aid measures

Most important symptoms and effects

Dust may be irritating to the respiratory tract and cause symptoms of bronchitis.

Description of first aid measures

General

In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical attention.

Inhalation

Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Oxygen may additionally be given, by trained

personnel, if it is available. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Skin

Flush skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention if irritation

develops and persists. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean or destroy contaminated shoes.

Eye

Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water. If easy to do, contact lenses should be removed during the

flushing, by trained personnel. Occasionally hold the eyelids apart during the flushing to ensure rinsing the

entire surface of the eye and lids with water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.

Ingestion

Call a physician or a poison control center immediately. Induce vomiting only if directed by medical personnel.

The patient should lie on their left side while vomiting to reduce the risk of aspiration. Never give anything by

mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

There are no data available that address medical conditions that are generally recognized as being aggravated by

exposure to this material.

Attending physician should treat exposed patients symptomatically.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Water, foam, sand, dry chemical powder, CO2.

Unsuitable extinguishing media

none known.

Hazardous decomposition / combustion products

CO2, Carbon monoxide.

nitrous gases (NOx).

Protective equipment

Firefighters must wear fire resistant protective equipment. Wear approved respirator and protective gloves.

Other information

Evacuate all non-essential personnel. Treat as an oil fire. Cool closed containers with water. Water used to extinguish

a fire should not be allowed to enter the drainage system or water courses. After a fire, ventilate thoroughly the area

and soak with water, clean the walls and metallic surfaces.

Fire and explosion hazard

In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions

Do not breathe dust. For personal protection see Section 8.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Stop leakage if possible. Sweep up and put it into a container for disposal. Avoid dust generation. Flush surroundings

with large amounts of water and soap.

Other information

Evacuate personnel to safe area.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

When using do not eat, drink or smoke. The usual precautions for handling chemicals should be observed. Avoid

Incompatible materials (See Section 10).

Fire and explosion prevention

Avoid dust generation.

Conditions for safe storage

Store in accordance with local/national regulations. For maximum quality store below 25 °C / 77 °F.
