ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Wear appropriate protective clothing. Prevent skin and eye contact. Remove leaking container to a safe
place. Ventilate the area.
Environmental Precautions
Prevent large quantities of the material from entering drains or watercourses.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Sweep up or vacuum and transfer into suitable containers for recovery or disposal.
7.
HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling
Wear appropriate protective clothing. Prevent skin and eye contact.
Conditions for safe storage
Pressurized containers should be properly stored and secured to prevent falling or being knocked over.
Do not drag, slide or roll pressurized containers. Do not drop pressurized containers or permit them to
strike against each other. Never apply flame or localized heat directly to any part of the pressurized or
plastic container. Store pressurized and plastic containers away from high heat sources. Storage area
should be: - cool - dry - well ventilated - under cover - out of direct sunlight

EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Control parameters
Exposure limits are listed below, if they exist.
Mica
ACGIH TLV: 3 mg/m
3
TWA, measured as respirable fraction of the aerosol.
OSHA PEL: 20 mppcf, <1% crystalline silica
Clay as Kaolin, Respirable Fraction
ACGIH TLV: 2 mg/m
3
TWA
OSHA PEL: 15 mg/m
3
TWA, total dust
5 mg/m
3
TWA, respirable fraction
Nuisance Dust Limit
OSHA PEL: 50 mppcf or 15 mg/m
3
TWA, total dust
15 mppcf or 5 mg/m
3
TWA, respirable fraction
Appropriate engineering controls
Use with adequate ventilation. If this product is used in a pressurized system, there should be local
procedures for the selection, training, inspection and maintenance of this equipment. When used in large
volumes, use local exhaust ventilation.
Individual protection measures
Respiratory Protection
Not normally required. Use dust mask where dustiness is prevalent, or TLV is exceeded. In oxygen
deficient atmospheres, use a self contained breathing apparatus, as an air purifying respirator will not
provide protection.
