cotton sheeting or gauze and get prompt medical attention.
No attempt should be made to remove material from skin or to
remove contaminating clothing, as the damaged flesh can be easily
torn.
Inhalation - Using proper respiratory protection, immediately remove the
affected victim from exposure. Administer artificial respiration if
breathing is stopped. Keep at rest. Call for prompt medical
attention.
Ingestion - First aid is normally not required.

personnel. Isolate "fuel" supply to fire.
Extinguish the fire by cooling with water spray.
Respiratory and eye protection required for fire fighting personnel.
Hazardous Combustion of Product - Under Oxygen lean conditions. Carbon Monoxide (CO) and irritating
smoke may be produced.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Land spill - Recover spilled material and place in suitable containers for recycle
or disposal. Consult an expert on disposal of recovered material
and ensure conformity to local disposal regulations.
Water spill - Recover spilled material and place in suitable containers
for recycle or disposal.
- Consult an expert on disposal of recovered material and
ensure conformity to local disposal regulations.

Storage/ Keep - Avoid the heat or sunlight. Store in a well ventilated place.
Store in a cool, dry place. Keep container tightly closed.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Controls - Use local ventilation to Control fumes from hot processing. Use
static controls. Static charges can build up and ignite dust or
solvent laden atmospheres.
Personal Protection - For open system at ambient temperature(-18 to 38 ∩ )
where contact is likely, wear safety glass
where contact may occur with not material, wear thermal resistant
gloves, arm protection, and a face shield.
where concentrations in air may exceed the limits given in this
section and engineering, work practice or other means of exposure
reduction are not adequate, NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators may
be necessary to prevent overexposure by inhalation
Ventilation - Local exhaust ventilation of process equipment may be to control
particulate exposures to below the recommended exposure limit.
See personal protection recommendations
Workplace Exposure Limits - OSHA regulation 29CFR1910.1000 requires the following permissible
exposure limits :
5 mg/m3(respirable dust), and 15 mg/m3(total dust) based on the
OSHA, PEL for nuisance dust.
- The ACGIH recommends the following occupational exposure limit :
a TWA of 10 mg/m3(total dust) for nuisance dust
