6.1.2. For emergency responders
Protective equipment
:
Do not attempt to take action without suitable protective equipment. For further information
refer to section 8: Exposure controls/personal protection.
Emergency procedures
:
Contain spill and monitor for excessive dust accumulation. ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no
smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Ventilate closed spaces before entering.
Turn off electric power to area. As an immediate precautionary measure, isolate spill or leak
area for at least 100 meters (330 feet) in all directions. Evacuate area.
6.2. Environmental precautions
Avoid release to the environment.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for cleaning up
:
Take up mechanically (sweeping, shoveling) and collect in suitable container for disposal.
Minimize generation of dust. Use appropriate PPE. Sweep or scoop spills, dispose of any
unusable material in approved landfill. Non-sparking tools should be used. Dust deposits
should not be allowed to accumulate on surfaces, as these may form an explosive mixture if
they are released into the atmosphere in sufficient concentration.

SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection
8.1. Control parameters
No additional information available
8.2. Appropriate engineering controls
Appropriate engineering controls
:
Ensure good ventilation of the work station. It is recommended that dust control equipment
such as local exhaust ventilation and material transport systems involved in handling of this
product contain explosion relief vents or an explosion suppression system or an oxygen-
deficient environment. Adequate ventilation systems as needed to control concentrations of
airborne contaminants below applicable threshold limit values.
Environmental exposure controls
:
Controls should be engineered to prevent release to the environment, including procedures to
prevent spills, atmospheric release and release to waterways. Avoid release to the
environment.
8.3. Individual protection measures/Personal protective equipment
Hand protection:
Protective gloves
Eye protection:
Safety glasses
Skin and body protection:
If prolonged exposure is anticipated, it is recommended for handlers to wear appropriate clothing to prevent skin contact. Use of a full body suit
such as Tyvek or Tychem suit is recommended.
Respiratory protection:
In case of insufficient ventilation, use NIOSH approved respiratory protection.
