exposure.
Dust contact with the eyes can lead to mechanical irritation.
First Aid responders should pay attention to self-protection,and use the recommended personal protective equipment
when the potential for exposure exists (see section 8).
Treat symptomatically and supportively.

SECTION 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable extinguishing media:

Water spray
Alcohol-resistant foam
Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Dry chemical
None known.

Unsuitable extinguishingmedia
Specific hazards during firefighting::

Avoid generating dust; fine dust dispersed in air in sufficientconcentrations, and in the presence of an ignition source is apotential dust explosion hazard.
Exposure to combustion products may be a hazard to health.

Hazardous combustion products:

Carbon oxides
Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Fluorine compounds
Metal oxides

Specific extinguishing methods:

Special protective equipment
for fire-fighters:

Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.
Use water spray to cool unopened containers.
Remove undamaged containers from fire area if it is safe to doso.
Evacuate area.
In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
Use personal protective equipment.

SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protec- :tive equipment and emergency procedures

Use personal protective equipment.
Follow safe handling advice (see section 7) and personal
protective equipment recommendations (see section 8).

Environmental precautions:

Avoid release to the environment.
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.
Retain and dispose of contaminated wash water.
Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages
cannot be contained.

Methods and materials forcontainment and cleaning up:

Sweep up or vacuum up spillage and collect in suitablecontainer for disposal.
Avoid dispersal of dust in the air (i.e., clearing dust surfaces
with compressed air).
Dust deposits should not be allowed to accumulate on
surfaces, as these may form an explosive mixture if they are
released into the atmosphere in sufficient concentration.
Local or national regulations may apply to releases and3 / 23

Skin and body protection:

Hygiene measures:

Consider double gloving.
Wear safety glasses with side shields or goggles.
If the work environment or activity involves dusty conditions,mists or aerosols, wear the appropriate goggles.
Wear a faceshield or other full face protection if there is apotential for direct contact to the face with dusts, mists, oraerosols.
Work uniform or laboratory coat.
Additional body garments should be used based upon thetask being performed (e.g., sleevelets, apron, gauntlets,
disposable suits) to avoid exposed skin surfaces.
Use appropriate degowning techniques to remove potentiallycontaminated clothing.
If exposure to chemical is likely during typical use, provide
eye flushing systems and safety showers close to theworking place.
When using do not eat, drink or smoke.
Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of theworkplace.
Wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
The effective operation of a facility should include review ofengineering controls, proper personal protective equipment,
appropriate degowning and decontamination procedures,industrial hygiene monitoring, medical surveillance and theuse of administrative controls.
