Section 3 - Hazards Identification


*EMERGENCY OVERVIEW*

Appearance: white crystalline powder. Flash Point: 65 deg C. * Warning!*
Flammable solid. May cause central nervous system effects. May cause
sensitization by skin contact. May cause eye and skin irritation. May
cause respiratory and digestive tract irritation.
*Target Organs: *Central nervous system.


*Potential Health Effects*
*Eye:* May cause eye irritation. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and
corneal damage.
*Skin:* May cause mild skin irritation.
*Ingestion:* May cause central nervous system depression. May cause
nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and increased salivation.
*Inhalation:* May cause respiratory tract irritation. Olfactory fatigue
may occur. Can produce delayed pulmonary edema.
*Chronic:* No information found.

Section 4 - First Aid Measures



*Eyes:* Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
*Skin:* Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing
before reuse.
*Ingestion:* Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get
medical aid. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth
and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
*Inhalation:* Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If
not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical aid.
*Notes to Physician:* Treat symptomatically and supportively.

Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures



*General Information:* As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing
apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and
full protective gear. Will burn if involved in a fire. Dust can be an
explosion hazard when exposed to heat or flame. Flammable solid. May
burn rapidly with flare burning effect. May re-ignite after fire is
extinguished.
*Extinguishing Media:* For large fires, use water spray, fog or regular
foam. Contact professional fire-fighters immediately. For small fires,
use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, sand, earth, water spray or regular
foam. Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after
fire is out.
*Flash Point:* 65 deg C ( 149.00 deg F)
*Autoignition Temperature:* Not applicable.
*Explosion Limits, Lower:*Not available.
* Upper:* Not available.
*NFPA Rating:* (estimated) Health: 1; Flammability: 2; Instability: 0

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures



*General Information:* Use proper personal protective equipment as
indicated in Section 8.
*Spills/Leaks:* Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable
disposal container. Scoop up with a nonsparking tool, then place into a
suitable container for disposal. Avoid generating dusty conditions.
Remove all sources of ignition.

Section 7 - Handling and Storage



*Handling:* Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact
with skin and eyes. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid
and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Avoid contact with heat, sparks and
flame. Use only in a chemical fume hood. Do not pressurize, cut, weld,
braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat, sparks
or open flames.
*Storage:* Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from
sources of ignition. Store in a tightly closed container.
Flammables-area. Store in a cool, dry area away from incompatible
substances.

Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection



*Engineering Controls:* Facilities storing or utilizing this material
should be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use
adequate general or local explosion-proof ventilation to keep airborne
levels to acceptable levels.
