4 FIRST AID MEASURES
SKIN Immediately wash skin with plenty of soap and water while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists. EYE Flush immediately with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Eyelids should be held away from the eyeball to ensure thorough rinsing. Get medical attention if irritation persists. INHALATION Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, institute rescue breathing. If breathing is difficult, ensure airway is clear and give oxygen. If heart has stopped, immediately begin cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Keep affected person warm and at rest. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. INGESTION If spontaneous vomiting occurs, keep head below hips to prevent aspiration and monitor for breathing difficulty. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Keep affected person warm and at rest. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. NOTES TO PHYSICIAN Treat symptomatically.

5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS A variety of decomposition products may occur including simple hydrocarbons to toxic and irritating gases such as carbon, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, acids, ketones, and aldehydes. EXTINGUISHING MEDIA Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide or fire-fighting foam for Class B fires to extinguish fire. BASIC FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES Material will burn in a fire. Evacuate area and fight fire from a safe distance. Use water spray to cool adjacent structures and to protect personnel. Stay away from storage tank ends. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety device or any discoloration of storage tank due to fire. Firefighters must wear NIOSH approved positive pressure breathing apparatus (SCBA) with full face mask and full protective equipment. UNUSUAL FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARDS Hazardous melting and dripping may occur at elevated temperatures. May burn at or above flash point, and airborne dust may explode if ignited. Flash Point > 650 F (> 343.3 C) (PMCC) Autoignition Temperature Flammability Limits in Air, Lower, % by Volume Flammability Limits in Air, Upper, % by Volume No Data No Data No Data
6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
EMERGENCY ACTION Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind. (See Exposure Controls/Personal Protection in Section 8.) ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS Avoid excessive generation of dust. If dust is generated, appropriate respiratory, eye and skin protection should be used to protect personnel during clean-up. If material is released to the environment, take immediate steps to stop and contain release. Notify local authorities and the National Response Center, if required. SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURE Avoid the generation of dusts during clean-up. Sweep up or gather material and place in appropriate container for disposal. Avoid cleanup procedures that may result in water pollution. See Exposure Controls/Personal Protection (Section 8).

7 HANDLING & STORAGE
HANDLING Minimize dust generation during handling and contact. Dusts may become explosive when dispersed in a confined space such as a building or vessel and in the presence of oxygen and heat (spark). Ground lines and equipment used during transfer to reduce the possibility of static spark-initiated fire or explosion. Use non-sparking tools. Do not cut, grind, drill, weld or reuse containers unless adequate precautions are taken against these hazards. Avoid accumulation of dust on surfaces. Clean up dust using approved methods. Avoid inhaling dust and contact with skin and eyes. Do not eat, drink or smoke in areas of use or storage. STORAGE Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, dry, isolated, well-ventilated area away from heat, sources of ignition and incompatibles. Empty containers may contain material residue. Do not reuse without adequate precautions. Do not eat, drink or smoke in areas of use or storage.
8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
ENGINEERING CONTROLS Ventilation and other forms of engineering controls are the preferred means for controlling exposures. EYE PROTECTION: PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT (PPE) Keep away from eyes. Eye contact can be avoided by using chemical safety glasses, goggles, and/or face shield. Have eye washing facilities readily available where eye contact can occur. SKIN PROTECTION: PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT (PPE) Avoid skin contact with this material. Use appropriate chemical protective gloves when handling. Additional protective clothing may be necessary. Good personal hygiene practices such as properly handling contaminated clothing, using wash facilities before entering public areas and restricting eating, drinking and smoking to designated areas are essential for preventing personal chemical contamination. RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT (PPE) A NIOSH approved dust respirator may be appropriate under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. Protection provided by air purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or any other circumstances where air purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.
