| 4. FIRST AID MEASURES | |
| First Aid Measures | M |
| Inhalation | Move victim to fresh air. Apply resuscitation if victim is not breathing - If trained personnel available administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. |
| Ingestion | If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Give a glass of water to be taken slowly. If irritation develops or persists transport to hospital or doctor. |
| Skin | If dust falls onto the skin, remove any contaminated clothing and wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation persists transport to hospital or doctor. |
| Eye | If dust enters the eyes, flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, ensuring eye lids are held open. If irritation develops or persists, immediately transport to hospital or doctor. |
| First Aid Facilities | Recommended: Eye wash. Hand wash basin. |
| Advice to Doctor | Product contains a very high proportion of non-silica inert filler, and a low proportion of a surfactant. If swallowed, vomiting should not have been induced because of the risk of aspiration of powder into the lungs. Risk of mechanical damage if in eyes. Treat symptomatically. Contact Poisons Information Centre. |
| Other Information | Inhalation of dusts may represent an acute risk to persons with a compromised respiratory system. |
| 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES | |
| Suitable Extinguishing Media | Water, or as for other chemicals present. |
| Hazards from Combustion Products | Decomposes on heating emitting soot, smoke and decomposition products. |
| Specific Methods | In case of small fire/explosion use water. In case of major emergency use PPE: breathing apparatus and protective gloves. |
| Specific Hazards | This material is not a combustible or flammable solid. However, under certain conditions this material, if sufficiently distributed in air and a suitable source of ignition is present, may cause a dust explosion. |
| Precautions in connection with Fire | M |
| Unsuitable Extinguishing Media | M |
| 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES | |
| Emergency Procedures | M |
| Spills & Disposal | Avoid generating dusts. Wear suitable protective equipment. Ventilate area. If possible wet area down to prevent high dust levels. If available, use dustless methods, such as a HEPA vacuum and filter. Otherwise, use a non-sparking shovel and place into a suitably labeled container for later disposal. Do not dry sweep. |
| 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE | |
| Precautions for Safe Handling | Do not generate dusts. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep away from acids. |
| Conditions for Safe Storage | Store in a cool place and out of direct sunlight. Store away from sources of heat or ignition. Store away from oxidizing agents. Keep containers closed, when not using the product. Store in original packages as approved by manufacturer. |
| Storage Regulations | M |
| 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION | |
| Biological Limit Values | M |
| Engineering Controls | Good industrial hygiene practice requires that employee exposure be maintained below the recommended TLV/TWA. This is preferably achieved through the provision of adequate ventilation where necessary. Where dust cannot be controlled in this way, personal respiratory protection should be employed. |
| Respiratory Protection | M |
| Eye Protection | M |
| Hand Protection | M |
| Personal Protective Equipment | Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not breathe dust. Personal protection to be selected from those recommended below, as appropriate to mode of use, quantity handled and degree of hazard:- Chemical goggles Gloves, rubber or plastic. Full face respirator with dust filters fitted or suitable dust mask Always maintain a high level of personal hygiene when using cleaning chemicals. That is wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking or using the toilet. |
