Accidental release measures

- PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS: Wear a dust mask if dust is generated above exposure limits. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up.

- EMERGENCY PROCEDURES: Not applicable

- CONTAINMENT/CLEAN-UP MEASURES: Vacuum dust using a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtered vacuum. If sweeping is necessary, use a dust suppressant such as water. These procedures will help to minimize potential exposures. Do not dry sweep dust accumulation. These procedures will help to minimize

potential exposures. Scoop up material and put into a suitable container for disposal as a non-hazardous waste.
