First-aid measures

4.1. Description of first aid measures
General advice
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Product dust (fibres) can lead to temporary mechanical irritative effects.In the event of burns caused by hot or molten material the usual first-aid measures have to be applied.Medical treatment is necessary if symptoms occur which are obviously caused by skin or eye contact with the product or by inhalation of its vapours.Wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
Inhalation
Move subject to fresh air and keep him calm. In case of discomfort: Supply with medical care.

Ingestion
Do not induce vomiting. Call a physician immediately.
4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
mechanical irritation
4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
no

Fire-fighting measures

5.1. Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media
dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam, water spray
Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons
High volume water jet
5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
May be released in case of fire: carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, organic products of decomposition.
5.3. Advice for firefighters
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
Keep out unprotected persons. Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment. Remove all sources of ignition. Also keep emptied containers away from sources of heat and ignition. Dust can form an explosive mixture with air. Prevent fire extinguishing water from contaminating surface water or the ground water system. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

Accidental release measures

6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Assure sufficient ventilation. Use personal protective clothing. Keep away sources of ignition. Avoid dust formation. Use breathing apparatus if exposed to vapours/dust/mist/aerosol. Avoid breathing dust. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling.
6.2. Environmental precautions
