First-aid measures
INHALATION
Move the exposed person to fresh air at once. Perform artificial respiration if breathing has stopped. Keep the affected person warm and at rest. Get prompt medical attention.
INGESTION
Rinse mouth thoroughly. Immediately give a couple of glasses of water or milk, provided the victim is fully conscious. If vomiting occurs, keep head low so that stomach content doesn't get into the lungs. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.
SKIN CONTACT
Remove affected person from source of contamination. NOTE! Effects may be delayed. Keep affected person under observation. Promptly wash contaminated skin with soap or mild detergent and water. Promptly remove clothing if soaked through and wash as above. Get medical attention if irritation persists after washing.
EYE CONTACT
Dust in the eyes: Make sure to remove any contact lenses from the eyes before rinsing. Get medical attention promptly if symptoms occur after washing.
Fire-fighting measures
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Water spray, fog or mist. Dry chemicals, sand, dolomite etc. Use fire-extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding materials.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES
Use pressurised air mask if product is involved in a fire.
UNUSUAL FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARDS
Dust may form explosive mixture with air. Can form dust clouds that may explode on contact with flames, heat and oxidisers.
SPECIFIC HAZARDS
Toxic gases/vapours/fumes of: Carbon dioxide (CO2). Carbon monoxide (CO).
Accidental release measures
SPILL CLEAN UP METHODS
Avoid generation and spreading of dust. Avoid contact with skin or inhalation of spillage, dust or vapour. Extinguish all ignition sources. Avoid sparks, flames, heat and smoking. Ventilate. Collect powder using special dust vacuum cleaner with particle filter or carefully sweep into closed container. Containers with collected spillage must be properly labelled with correct contents and hazard symbol.
Handling and storage
USAGE PRECAUTIONS
Avoid handling which leads to dust formation. Use mechanical ventilation in case of handling which causes formation of dust. Transferring or mixing the powder can lead to the build up of electrostatic charge, which if discharged rapidly could cause ignition and explosion of a dust cloud. Static electricity and formation of sparks must be prevented.
STORAGE PRECAUTIONS
Ground container and transfer equipment to eliminate static electric sparks.
STORAGE CLASS
Chemical storage.

Exposure controls / personal protection
1. Technical protection measures
Use engineering controls to reduce air contamination to permissible exposure level.
2. Organisational protection measures
No specific ventilation requirements noted, but forced ventilation may still be required if air contamination exceeds acceptable level. Provide sufficient ventilation for operations causing dust formation.
3. Hand protection
Protective gloves must be used if there is a risk of direct contact or splash.
4. Feet protection
No specific protection recommended. Wear appropriate footwear to prevent any possibility of skin contact.
5. Body protection
Wear appropriate clothing to prevent any possibility of skin contact. Disposable impermeable overalls are recommended.
6. Eye protection
Wear splash-proof eye goggles to prevent any possibility of eye contact.
7. Respiratory protection
No specific recommendation made, but protection against nuisance dust must be used when the general level exceeds 10 mg/m³. Use specified dust masks. Wear dust masks in dusty areas.
8. General hygiene
Wash promptly if skin becomes contaminated. Change work clothing daily if contamination is reasonably probable. Promptly remove non-impervious clothing that becomes contaminated.
Stability and reactivity
STABILITY
Stable under normal temperature conditions.
Avoid: Heat, sparks, flames.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID
Avoid excessive heat for prolonged periods of time. Avoid dust close to ignition sources.
MATERIALS TO AVOID
Strong acids.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS
Fire creates: Carbon monoxide (CO). Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Disposal considerations
DISPOSAL METHODS
Dispose of waste and residues in accordance with local authority requirements. Do not allow runoff to sewer, waterway or ground.
