6. Accidental Release Measures
Spill or leak procedures: Avoid generating and breathing dust. Vacuum if dry using HEPA filter
equipped vacuum. Avoid adding water; the product will become slippery when wet.
Personal Protective Equipment: Use appropriate personal protective equipment, such as, safety
goggles, gloves and a NIOSH approved particulate respirator if airborne dust levels exceed
occupational exposure limits listed in Section 8.
7. Handling and Storage
Handling Procedures: Product contains crystalline silica which may become airborne without
producing a visible dust cloud. Avoid creating dusty conditions. Use only with adequate
ventilation to keep exposure below recommended exposure limits. Use appropriate personal
protective equipment, such as, safety goggles, gloves and a NIOSH approved particulate
respirator if airborne dust levels exceed occupational exposure limits listed in Section 8.
Storage Procedures: Store in a dry area. Use good housekeeping in storage and work areas to
prevent accumulation of dust.
