Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Inhalation: Remove from exposure to fresh air
Skin contact: The substance is non-irritating. Wash skin with plenty of water and soap.
Eye contact: Flush eyes with copious amounts of water occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Remove contact lenses if easily possible.
Ingestion: In case of persistent symptoms consult doctor
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media: Since material is not combustible, extinguish fire using agent suitable for type of surrounding fire. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: None
Special hazards arising from the substance
Special hazards: None known
Advice for firefighters
Additional advice for firefighters: No special measures required
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Do not breathe dust. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment
Environmental precautions
No special measures required
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Collect the product with mechanical media, avoid dusting, in suitable containers for its re-use or disposal: Vacuum cleaner or wet-sweeping.
Neutralising chemicals not required
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Avoid causing dust. Use local exhaust ventilation when dust is generated.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Store the packaging closed and dry. After moisture take-up volume will increase and agglomeration may occurs.
