Classification: Non-hazardous as per GHS criteria for pure product.
Hazards: Dust may be irritating to eyes, skin, and respiratory tract. Excessive inhalation may cause coughing or sneezing. No known chronic effects under normal handling.
Signal Word: None
Hazard Statements: Not classified as hazardous by OSHA or WHMIS. With massive dust exposure, physical discomfort may occur.
Precautionary Statements: Avoid breathing dust. Use local exhaust. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Main Components: Steviol Glycosides (90% or more: stevioside, rebaudioside A, dulcoside A, rubusoside)
Other Constituents: Water (<6%), minor plant constituents (chlorophylls, proteins, minerals)
Impurities: None identified posing health hazards at normal concentrations
Physical Form: Fine to coarse crystalline white powder or granules
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Provide oxygen if breathing becomes difficult. Seek medical advice if symptoms persist.
Eye Contact: Flush eyes immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation continues.
Skin Contact: Wash affected skin thoroughly with water and soap. Remove contaminated clothing.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water. Drink water to dilute. Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical advice if discomfort or large amounts ingested.
Symptoms: Mild irritation to eyes or upper respiratory tract.
Flammability: Non-flammable in original form. Fine dust may pose risk of explosion with sufficient air and ignition source.
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, dry chemical, foam, or CO2.
Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Full protective clothing, self-contained breathing apparatus.
Unusual Hazards: Dust in confined areas may form explosive mixtures with air.
Combustion Products: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, potential volatile organics.
Personal Protection: Avoid dust formation; use personal respirator, eye protection, gloves.
Spill Response: Sweep or vacuum up avoiding dust generation. Place in suitable containers for recovery or disposal.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into drains and surface water.
Cleanup Procedures: Dampen with water to suppress dust, collect with shovel or vacuum. Clean spill area with water after material removal.
Safe Handling: Avoid breathing dust, contact with eyes and skin. Use in well-ventilated location. Minimize dust generation.
Storage Conditions: Store in closed containers in cool, dry, and well-ventilated areas. Protect from humidity and direct sunlight.
Incompatibilities: Strong oxidizers, strong acids may degrade product.
Special Handling Advice: Keep away from sources of ignition, avoid static discharge possible with fine powders.
Exposure Limits: No established occupational exposure limits. Treat as nuisance dust (OSHA PEL 15 mg/m³ (total dust), 5 mg/m³ (respirable)).
Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation to minimize airborne dust.
Personal Protective Equipment: Dust mask or respirator, safety goggles, gloves, laboratory coat.
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands after handling product and before eating.
