*** EMERGENCY OVERVIEW ***:
Dust may be irritating to respiratory tract. Dust may form explosive
mixtures with air. Dust may cause eye irritation.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
Eye Contact:
Dust may cause irritation.
Skin Contact:
No hazard expected in normal use.
Inhalation:
Dust may cause irritation.
Ingestion:
No hazard expected in normal use.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------4. FIRST AID MEASURES
FIRST AID
Eye Contact:
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes or until all material has been removed. Obtain medical
attention.
Skin Contact:
Flush skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing. Obtain
medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
Inhalation:
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give
oxygen. If unconscious, evaluate the need for artificial respiration.
Get immediate medical attention.

Ingestion:
No adverse effects expected by this route of exposure.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point: Not Determined
Flash Point Method: Not determined
Lower Explosive Limit: Not determined
Upper Explosive Limit: Not determined
OSHA Flammability Classification: None
Autoignition Temperature: >720°C
Other Flammable Properties:
Burning will produce hazardous compounds including oxides of: carbon.
sulfur. Burning will produce fumes of ammonia.
Extinguishing Media:
Use water spray or fog, foam, dry chemical or CO2. Solid stream of water
may spread the fire.
Fire Fighting Procedures:
Containers can build up pressure if exposed to heat (fire). Cool with
water spray. As in any fire, wear self-contained, pressure-demand
breathing apparatus (MSHA-NIOSH approved or equivalent) and full
protective gear.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Steps To Be Taken In Case Material Is Released Or Spilled:
Collect material and place in a disposal container. Obey relevant local,
state, provincial and federal laws and regulations. Do not contaminate
any lakes, streams, ponds, groundwater or soil. Use personal protective
equipment as described in Section 8.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling:
Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Keep away from heat. Keep
away from sparks, flames and other sources of ignition. Avoid breathing
vapor or mist. Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with eyes,
skin and clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Follow all MSDS/Label precautions even after the container is emptied
because it may retain product residue.
Storage:
Keep container closed when not in use. Maximum storage period: 2 years.
