**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING
MEASURES ****
General Information:
As
in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand,
MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. Dusts at
sufficient concentrations can form explosive mixtures with air. Material can
spontaneously ignite (pyrophoric) when exposed to air at normal or slightly
elevated temperatures. Flammable solid.
Extinguishing Media:
Use dry sand or earth to smother fire.
DO NOT USE WATER!
**** SECTION 6 -
ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****
General Information: Use proper personal
protective equipment as indicated in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal container.
Avoid generating dusty conditions.
**** SECTION 7 -
HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Use with adequate ventilation. Minimize dust
generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep container
tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation.
Storage:
Keep away from sources of ignition. Keep from
contact with oxidizing materials. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
****
SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to
keep airborne concentrations below the permissible exposure limits.
Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes:
Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described
by OSHA's eye and face
protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European Standard EN166.
Skin:
Wear appropriate gloves to prevent skin exposure.
Clothing:
Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin exposure.
