Protective Equipment: Firefighters wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear
Advice for Firefighters: Move containers from fire area if safe, use water spray to cool unopened containers

6. Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions: Wear chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles, and protective clothing, avoid breathing dust
Environmental Precautions: Prevent spill entering drains or waterways, contain spill with non-combustible absorbent
Cleanup Methods: Scoop or sweep spilled solid into a suitable container for disposal, wash area with soap and water after removal
Decontamination: Use mild detergent and rinse area thoroughly; ventilate area before re-entering
Disposal: See section on Disposal Considerations for correct disposal protocols

7. Handling and Storage

Handling: Wear appropriate personal protection, minimize dust generation, work in a well-ventilated area, use tools to avoid direct contact
Storage: Keep container tightly closed in a dry, cool, well-ventilated place, store away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizers and acids
Special Requirements: Store at ambient to controlled room temperature, protect from moisture, ensure containers are labeled and sealed
Incompatibilities: Avoid storing with strong bases, oxidizing agents, or direct sunlight

8. Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Exposure Limits: No established occupational exposure limits, handle as a chemical with potential health effects
Engineering Controls: Use fume hood or local exhaust ventilation to limit airborne concentrations
Personal Protection: Wear NIOSH-approved respirator if dust exposure possible, use chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile or neoprene), safety goggles or face shield, lab coat or apron
Hygiene Measures: Avoid contact with skin and eyes, wash hands thoroughly after handling, do not eat or drink in work areas, remove contaminated clothing before leaving
