FIRST AID MEASURES FIRST AID MEASURES Skin Contact Wash thoroughly with soap and water. Seek medical attention if symptoms develop. Eye contact Flush eyes immediately with large amounts of water for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if redness, swelling, itching, burning or visual disturbances occur. Inhalation If cough, shortness of breath or other breathing problems occur, move to fresh air. Seek medical attention if symptoms persist. If necessary, restore normal breathing through standard first aid measures. Ingestion Do not induce vomiting. If conscious, give several glasses of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Seek medical attention. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed Symptoms: The most important known symptoms and effects are described in Section 2 and/or in Section 11. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Note to physicians: Treat symptomatically. 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Foam. Dry chemical. Water. Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: None. Specific hazards arising from the chemical: ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Page 3 / 12 Product code: CESCARBDRY Product name: Cesium Carbonate, Caesium Revision date: 18-Apr-2017 carbonate ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating gases and vapors. Hazardous combustion products: Oxides of Cesium. Carbon monoxide (CO). Carbon dioxide (CO2). Protective equipment and precautions for firefighters: In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear suitable protective equipment. Risk of Dust Explosion: This material is an inorganic dust and will not create nor support conditions that would result in a dust explosion or fire. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Personal precautions: Avoid dust formation. Ensure adequate ventilation. Use personal protective equipment. See also Section 8. Environmental Precautions: Environmental Precautions: Contain spilled material on land, if safe to do so. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. See also Section 13. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up Methods for containment: Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Methods for cleaning up: Do not create a dust cloud by using a brush or compressed air. Clean up promptly by vacuum. Use of a vacuum with high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration is recommended. Pick up and transfer to properly labeled containers. See Section 13. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for safe handling Advice on safe handling: Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid dust formation. Do not breathe dust. Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at machinery and at places where dust can be generated. Avoid ingestion. Avoid prolonged or repeated exposure. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Storage Conditions: Hygroscopic material. Will absorb water readily from atmosphere. Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep in properly labeled containers. Do not store together with strong oxidizing agents. Incompatible materials: Strong oxidizing agents. Strong acids. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Exposure guidelines: There are no exposure limits identified for this product.
