Appearance: of f-w hite powder.
Ca ution ! May c ause e ye and skin irritation. May ca use respiratory and digestive t ract irritat ion. The t oxicological properties of t his
material have not been fully investigated.
Target Organs: None known.
Potential Health Effects
Eye: Conta ct may cause t ransient eye irritation.
Skin: May c ause skin irritation.
Ingestion: May c ause irritation of t he digestive t ract . T he toxicological properties of this substa nce hav e not be en fully investigated.
Inhalation: May ca use respiratory trac t irritation. T he toxicological properties of this substa nce have not bee n fully investigated.
Chronic: No information found.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
Eyes: F lush eyes with plenty of wa ter for at least 15 minutes, oc ca sionally lifting the upper and lower eye lids. Get medical aid.
Skin: Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of wat er for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clot hing and shoes. Wash
clothing before reuse.
Ingestion: Never give anything by mouth to an unc onsc ious person. Get medical aid. Do NOT induce v omiting. If consc ious and alert,
rinse mouth and drink 2-4 c upfuls of milk or water.
Inhalation: Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical aid.
Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively.
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
General Information: As in any fire, wear a self-c ontained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or
equivalent), and full protec tive gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generat ed by t hermal decomposition or
combustion. This material in sufficient quantity and reduced partic le size is c apable of c reating a dust explosion.
Extinguishing Media: Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Use wat er spray, dry c hemical, c arbon dioxide, or appropriate foam.
Flash Point: Not applicable.
Autoignition Temperature: Not applicable.
Explosion Limits, Lower:Not available.
Upper: Not available.
NFPA Rating: (estimated) Health: 1; Flammability: 0; Insta bility: 0
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
General Information: Use proper personal protec tive e quipment as indicate d in Sect ion 8.
Spills/Leaks: Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal conta iner. Clean up spills immediately, observing
precautions in the Protec tive Equipment sect ion. Avoid generating dusty c onditions. Provide vent ilation.

Caution! May cause eye and skin irritation. May cause respiratory and digestive tract irritation. The toxicological properties of this

material have not been fully investigated. Target Organs: None known. Potential Health Effects Eye: Contact may cause transient eye irritation. Skin: May cause skin irritation. Ingestion: May cause irritation of the digestive tract. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. Inhalation: May cause respiratory tract irritation. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. Chronic: No information found.

Section 4 - First Aid Measures

Eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid. Skin: Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Ingestion: Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Inhalation: Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid. Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively.
