Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Seek advice if discomfort lasts
Ingestion: Rinse mouth; drink water to dilute. Not expected to be harmful, but get medical help in case of adverse reaction or symptoms like stomach upset
Note to Physician: Treat symptomatically; no special antidote necessary
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide
Unsuitable Media: Do not use water jet directly, may spread fire
Special Hazards: Fine dust can form explosive mixtures with air at high concentrations
Hazardous Combustion Products: Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide
Firefighter Precautions: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing; avoid inhalation of combustion products
Firefighting Instructions: Cool containers with water spray; collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately
Personal Precautions: Prevent dust generation; use dust mask and safety goggles
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into drains, ditches, or waterways
Methods for Cleanup: Sweep up and collect in suitable containers; minimize dust formation. Residue can be washed away with water. Dispose of as per local regulations
Handling: Use only in well-ventilated areas; avoid breathing dust. Avoid eye and skin contact. Use proper personal protective equipment.
Storage: Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, dry location; protect from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents or sources of ignition. Recommended storage temperature: below 25°C. Do not store near food for animals if allergic to sources
Safe Transfer: Use grounding and bonding when transferring large quantities to prevent static discharge
Exposure Limits: No occupational exposure limits defined for resistant dextrin. Nuisance dust limit: 10 mg/m3 (inhalable), 3 mg/m3 (respirable) as recommended by local regulations
Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation recommended for dust management; use dust collector
Personal Protective Equipment: Wear safety goggles or face shield, dust mask or respirator (if airborne concentration is high), gloves for prolonged handling, protective clothing,
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands thoroughly after use. Do not eat, drink, or smoke during handling
