Fe2O3-0.2%, CaO-6.25%, MgO-4%, Na2O-15% (by analysis).
4 FIRST AID MEASURES
Inhalation: Move injured person into fresh air and keep person calm under observation. Get medical
attention if any discomfort continues.
Eye Contact: Immediately flush with plenty of water for up to 15 minutes. Remove any contact lenses and
open eyes wide apart. Do not rub eye. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
Skin Contact: Wash skin with soap and water. Get medical attention promptly if symptoms persist or
occur after washing.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth thoroughly if dust is ingested. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.
Note to Physician: Treat symptomatically.
5 FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing Media: Use fire-extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding materials.
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Not applicable.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must
be worn in case of fire.
Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards: None known.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Aluminum oxides, Magnesium oxides, Silicone oxides
Protective Measures: Selection of respiratory protection for fire fighting: follow the general fire
precautions indicated in the workplace.
Flammability Class: NFPA Rating Fire = 0. Materials that will not burn.
6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautions: Avoid inhalation of dust and contact with skin and eyes. Wear suitable protective
clothing. See Section 8 of the MSDS for Personal Protective Equipment.
Spill Cleanup Methods: Collect dust using a vacuum cleaner equipped with HEPA filter. If not possible,
gently moisten dust with water fog before it is collected with shovel, broom or the like. Collect in approved
containers and seal securely. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the MSDS.
Environmental Precautions: No specific precautions.
NORTH AMERICAN MSDS 2/ 6
MICRO GLASS BALL 09-Jan-2008
Notification Procedures: In the event of accidental release, notify relevant authorities in accordance with
all applicable regulations.
7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling: Mechanical ventilation may be required. Use work methods which minimize dust production.
Avoid inhalation of dust and contact with skin and eyes. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.
Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Keep the workplace clean.
Storage: Store in closed original container in a dry place. Store away from incompatible materials.
8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Exposure Limits: No exposure limits noted for ingredient(s) on ACGIH, OSHA and WEEL lists. Consult
Canadian Provincial Regulations and/or Mexican Regulations on exposure limits, if applicable.
However, for dusty conditions, OSHA and ACGIH have adopted an 8-hour TWA of 15 mg/m3 (total dust)
and 5 mg/m3 (respirable fraction) and of 10 mg/m3 (inhalable fraction) and 3 mg/m3 (respirable fraction)
for insoluble particulates not otherwise specified, respectively.
Engineering Controls: If dust or fumes are generated during use, use local exhaust in combination with
general ventilation as necessary to remove fumes/dust from the workers' breathing zone and to ensure
exposures do not exceed applicable limits.
Respiratory Protection: If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below
recommended exposure limits (where applicable) or to an acceptable level (in countries where exposure
limits have not been established), an approved respirator must be worn. In the United States of America, if
respirators are used, a program should be instituted to assure compliance with OSHA Standard 63 FR 1152,
January 8, 1998. Respirator type: High-efficiency particulate respirator. Seek advice from supervisor on
the company's respiratory protection standards.
Eye Protection: Risk of contact: Wear approved safety goggles.
Hand Protection: It is a good industrial hygiene practice to minimize skin contact. Wear protective
gloves. Suitable gloves can be recommended by the glove supplier.
Skin Protection: Wear appropriate clothing to prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact.
Hygiene Measures: Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the
material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective
equipment to remove contaminants.
