FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS When mixed with air and exposed to ignition source, sufficient flammable dust may exist to burn in open or explod e if confined. Use good house

keeping practices to avoid rendering dust airborne. Flammable vapors may also be present from over heating/melting/decomposition. Vapors may cause fire/explosion if source of ignition is presnt.

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Dry chemical

CO2

Water spray

Foam

SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES Do not enter fire area without proper protection. See section on decomposition products po ssible. Fight fire from safe distance/protected
location. Apply aqueous extinguishing media carefully to prevent frothing/steam explosion. Use water spray/fog for cooling. Avoid contact
with molten product to prevent serious burns. Avoid raising po wdered materials into airborne dust, creating an explosion hazard. Notify authorities if liquid enters sewer/public waters. 

### 07. HEALTH HAZARDS

ROUTES OF EXPOSURE

INHALATION Airborne dust or vapors/aerosols generated during processing may cause

res piratory tract irritation. Excessive exposure may cause cough, mucous production and shortness of breath.

EYE CONTACT

-- PRIMARY ROUTE Although no appropriate human or animal health effects data are known to exist, this material is expected to cause eye irritation. Dust from this product may cause eye irritation. Symptoms of irritation may include redness, tearing or excessive blinking.

SKIN ABSORPTION Although no appropriate human or animal health effects data are known to
exist, this material is expected to be a health hazard by skin absorption.

SKIN IRRITATION

-- PRIMARY ROUTE Although no appropriate human or animal health effects data are known to exist, this material is expected to be a skin irritant. Symptoms of irritation may include localized redness or rash and swelling.

MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE

No additional medic al information found.



### 08. PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT / CONTROL MEASURES

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION No occupational exposure standards have been developed for this material

. Where exposure through inhalation may occur from use, NIOSH/MSHA approved
respiratory protection equipment is recommended.

EYE PROTECTION Eye protection such as chemical splash goggles and/or face shield must be
worn when possibility exists for eye contact due to splashing or spraying liquid, airborne particles, or vapor. Contact lenses should not be worn.

SKIN PROTECTION When skin contact is possible, protective clothing including gloves, apron, sleeves, boots, head and face protection should b e worn. This equipment
must be cleaned thoroughly after each use. Use nitrile or natural rubber gloves/skin protection.

ENGINEERING CONTROLS Provide local exhaust or general room ventilation to minimize exposure to

dust. If mechanical ventilation is u sed, electrical systems should conform to National Electric Code (NFPA 70); electrical equipment must be suitable

for the classification of the area where it is installed. Guidance on area

classification can be found in NFPA 499.

OTHER HYGIENIC PRACTICE S Emergency eye wash fountains and safety showers should be available in the immediate vicinity of any potential exposure.

OTHER WORK PRACTICES Use good personal hygiene practices. Wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking, or using toilet facilitie s. Promptly remove soiled clothing/wash
thoroughly before reuse. Shower after work using plenty of soap and water. 

### 09. EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID

INHALATION If overcome by exposure, remove victim to fresh air immediately. Give oxygen or artificial respir ation as needed. Obtain emergency medical attention. Prompt action is essential.

EYE CONTACT In case of eye contact, immediately rinse with clean water for 20

- 30 minutes. Retract eyelids often. Obtain emergency medical attention.

SKIN CONTACT

cleaner may be used. Seek medical attention if ill effect or irritation
develops.

INGESTION Ingestion unlikely. However, if ingested, obtain emergency medical

attention.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TREATMENT PROCEDURES Treat symptomatically. 

### 10. SPILL AND DISPOSAL

PRECAUTIONS IF MATERIAL IS SPILLED OR RELEASED Spilled or released material poses a dust explosion hazard if it becomes airborne in the presence of an ignition source. Extinguish all ignition sources. Avoid generating dust. Use protective equipment during cleanup. On land, vacuum, using equipment which avoi ds ignition risk, or sweep (with

a broom that has non

- synthetic bristles). Place into suitable disposal containers. On water, contain/minimize dispersion/collect. May
contaminate water supplies. Report per regulatory requirements. Discharge into the e nvironment must be avoided; may be harmful to aquatic

life.

WASTE DISPOSAL METHODS

Non

- contaminated product is not a RCRA hazardous waste. However, contaminated product/soil/water may be a RCRA/OSHA hazardous waste due to
the potential for internal heat generation (see 40CFR 261 and 29 CFR 1910). It is the responsibility of the generator to determine at the time of disposal whether the product meets the criteria of a hazardous waste. Use registered transporters. Waste management options include metals recovery or landfilling solids at permitted sites. Assure emissions comply with applicable regulations. Dilute aqueous waste may biodegrade; avoid overloading/poisoning plant biomass. Assure effluent complies with
applicable regulations.



### 11. ADDITION AL PRECAUTIONS

HANDLING AND STORAGE PROCEDURES Store product in a cool, dry place away from strong oxidizing and reducing agents. Preferably, store in an air

- conditioned area where the ambient temperature does not exceed about 80F. Keep containers tightl y closed until ready to use to avoid loss of activity. For optimum results, use within 6 months of receipt. This product is not expected to present an explosion hazard during normal trnasportation and storage operations. However, when dispersed in air a nd subject to sufficient energy of ignition, it is a potential dust explosion hazard. Minimize the potential for dust explosion by eliminating/controlling ignition sources (bond and ground) and using good
