Thermal decomposition : No data available
Precautions for fire-fighting : Do not allow run-off from fighting to enter drains or water courses.
Keep containers and surroundings cool with water spray. Prevent fire extinguishing water from
contaminating surface water or the ground water system. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing
water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

Exposure guidelines
General advice: These recommendations provide general guidance for handling this product. Personal
protective equipment should be selected for individual applications and should consider factors which
affect exposure potential, such as handling practices, chemical concentrations and ventilation. It is
ultimately the responsibility of the employer to follow regulatory guidelines established by local
authorities. Do not breath dusts, and ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the
workstation location.
Exposure controls: Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) ventilation to
maintain exposure below level of overexposure (from known, suspected or apparent adverse effects).
Eye protection : Safety glasses with side-shields.
Skin and body protection : Wear as appropriate : safety shoes, resistant gloves (consult your safety
equipment supplier).
Respiratory protection : No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required. Use a
breathing mask if the powder concentration in air is up to 10mg/M 3.
