General fire hazards No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted. 6. Accidental release measures Personal precautions, protective Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Keep out of equipment and emergency low areas. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Do not breathe procedures dust. Use a NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator if there is a risk of exposure to dust/fume at levels exceeding the exposure limits. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS. Methods and materials for Avoid dispersal of dust in the air (i.e., clearing dust surfaces with compressed air). Stop the flow of containment and cleaning up material, if this is without risk. Absorb spillage to prevent material damage. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Collect dust using a vacuum cleaner equipped with HEPA filter. Large Spills: Wet down with water and dike for later disposal. Shovel the material into waste container. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas. Following product recovery, flush area with water. Small Spills: Sweep up or vacuum up spillage and collect in suitable container for disposal. Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination. Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS. Environmental precautions Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. 7. Handling and storage Precautions for safe handling Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Do not breathe dust. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Avoid prolonged exposure. Do not get this material on clothing. Do not taste or swallow. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke.
