Health Effects
Inhalation:
Not expected to be a health hazard.
Ingestion: Large oral doses may cause irritation to the gastrointestinal
tract.
Skin Contact: Not expected to be a health hazard from skin exposure.
Eye Contact: Not expected to be a health hazard.
Chronic Exposure: No information found.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions: No information found.
4.
First Aid Measures
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Get medical attention for any
breathing difficulty.
Ingestion: If large amounts were swallowed, give water to drink
and get medical advice.
Skin Contact: Wash exposed area with soap and water. Get medical
advice if irritation develops.
Eye Contact: Wash thoroughly with running water. Get medical advice
if irritation develops.
5.
Fire Fighting Measures
Fire: As with most organic solids, fire is possible at elevated
temperatures or by contact with an ignition source. Minimum dust
cloud ignition temperature: 550C (1022F)
Explosion: Essentially no hazard as dust (Vendor/Bureau of Mines
Relative Rating Scale). No explosion detected up to 200 g/cu.
ft. air.
Fire Extinguishing Media: Water spray, dry chemical, alcohol foam,
or carbon dioxide.
Special Information: In the event of a fire, wear full protective
clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus
with full facepiece operated in the pressure demand or other positive
pressure mode.
6.
Accidental Release Measures
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate personal protective
equipment as specified in Section 8. Spills: Sweep up and containerize
for reclamation or disposal. Vacuuming or wet sweeping may be
used to avoid dust dispersal. Small amounts of residue may be
flushed to sewer with plenty of water.
7.
Handling and Storage
Keep in a tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry, ventilated
area. Protect against physical damage. Isolate from any source
of heat or ignition. 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.
8.
Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Airborne Exposure Limits: None established.
Ventilation System: In general, dilution ventilation is a satisfactory
health hazard control for this substance. However, if conditions
of use create discomfort to the worker, a local exhaust system
should be considered.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): For conditions of use where
exposure to dust or mist is apparent and engineering controls
are not feasible, a particulate respirator (NIOSH type N95 or
better filters) may be worn. If oil particles (e.g. lubricants,
cutting fluids, glycerine, etc.) are present, use a NIOSH type
R or P filter. For emergencies or instances where the exposure
levels are not known, use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied
respirator. WARNING: Air-purifying respirators do not protect
workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Skin Protection: Wear protective gloves and clean body-covering
clothing.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles. Maintain eye wash
fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.
