Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide
Specific Hazards: Upon burning, may release oxides of carbon, sulfur compounds, or nitrogen oxides
Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear
Additional Information: Powder can form combustible dust-air mixtures. Use conventional methods to prevent the spread of dust and check for secondary explosions
Personal Precautions: Avoid generating dust. Use respiratory protection and gloves if required.
Spill Response: Sweep or vacuum material into marked containers for recovery or disposal. Damp down to avoid airborne particulates.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent runoff into drains, sewers, or natural waterways.
Clean-Up Methods: Clean area thoroughly after material pickup, using water if necessary. Ensure proper ventilation during clean-up.
Handling: Minimize dust generation. Use in a well-ventilated area. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Wash hands after use.
Storage: Store in tightly sealed containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Protect from direct sunlight and heat sources.
Packaging Materials: Use polyethylene-lined containers. Avoid reacting containers with high moisture permeability.
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation if dust develops during handling.
Personal Protective Equipment: Safety goggles, protective gloves, and lab coats recommended during processing.
Respiratory Protection: Use an approved dust mask in cases of insufficient ventilation.
Exposure Limits: No established OSHA, NIOSH, or ACGIH limits. Minimize exposure as part of good working practice.
Hygiene: Wash hands, face, and exposed skin before meals and after working. Avoid eating, drinking, and smoking in work areas. Clean protective equipment regularly.
