| SECTION 3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION | |
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: GRAY COLORED GRANULAR SOLID WITH MUSTY ODOR.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:
EYE: MAY CAUSE IRRITATION.
SKIN:
MAY CAUSE IRRITATION. REPEATED SKIN CONTACT MAY AGGRAVATE AN EXISTING
DERMATITIS (SKIN CONDITION) AND/OR SENSITIVITY OF THE SKIN.
INHALATION:
EXPOSURE TO DUST LEVELS EXCEEDING THE PEL (SEE SECTION 8) MAY CAUSE
IRRITATION OF THE UPPER RESPIRATORY SYSTEM. BREATHING DUST MAY AGGRAVATE
ACUTE OR CHRONIC ASTHMA OR OTHER CHRONIC PULMONARY DISEASES.
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS:
EYES: REDNESS, TEARING
SKIN: REDNESS, ITCHING
INHALATION: DRY COUGH, LABORED BREATHING DURING EXERTION
| SECTION 4. FIRST AID MEASURES | |
EYES:
IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES TO REMOVE
PARTICLES. IF IRRITATION PERSISTS, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION.
SKIN:
BRUSH OFF EXCESS PARTICULATE WITH DRY TOWEL. WASH AFFECTED AREA WITH
PLENTY OF SOAP AND WATER FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. IF SKIN IRRITATION DEVELOPS
OR PERSISTS, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION.
INHALATION:
REMOVE BY EXPIRATION AND MOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF NOT BREATHING, GIVE
ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT, GIVE OXYGEN. SEEK
MEDICAL ATTENTION.
INGESTION: INDUCE VOMITING.
| SECTION 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES | |
FLASH POINT: NOT AVAILABLE
FLAMMABLE LIMITS:
LOWER- N/A
UPPER-N/A
AUTO-IGNITION TEMPERATURE: 220 DEG. C
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
WATER SPRAY, ABC DRY CHEMICAL, FOAM, SAND, OR CARBON DIOXIDE. USE WATER
FOG OR SPRAY TO COOL EXPOSED EQUIPMENT AND CONTAINERS.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES:
USE WATER TO WET DOWN MATERIAL AND TO REDUCE THE LIKELIHOOD OF IGNITION
OR DISPERSION OF DUST INTO THE AIR. FOR LARGE FIRES OR FIRES IN CONFINED
AREAS, FULL EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT WITH SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS
AND FULL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING SHOULD BE USED. THERMAL DECOMPOSITION OF THIS
PRODUCT MAY PRODUCE CARBON MONOXIDE AND CARBON DIOXIDE GASES.
| SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES | |
AVOID BREATHING DUST. UNUSED MATERIAL CAN BE SHOVELED, SWEPT, OR VACUUMED
AND RECYCLED FOR USE. AVOID GENERATING AIRBORNE DUST.
IF USED MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED, SEE SECTION 13.
| SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE | |
STORE IN A COOL, DRY AREA AWAY FROM FOODSTUFFS AND ANIMAL FEED.
| SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION | |
