Protective Equipment: Firefighters wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear
Additional Advice: Move containers from fire area if it is possible to do so safely, cool tank/container with water spray, avoid breathing fumes

Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions: Use personal protective equipment, avoid contact with skin and eyes, avoid breathing dust
Environmental Precautions: Do not let product enter drains or surface waters, contain spillage
Methods for Cleanup: Collect dry powder with shovel or authorized HEPA vacuum, transfer to properly labeled containers for disposal, ventilate area and wash with soapy water after cleanup

Handling and Storage

Handling: Wear suitable gloves, safety glasses, and lab coats, use only in well-ventilated areas, avoid creating dust and keep containers tightly closed
Storage: Store in original container away from incompatible substances such as strong oxidizers, acids, or moisture, keep at room temperature and protect from direct sunlight, clearly label all containers

Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Exposure Limits: No specific occupational exposure limit set, handle as an irritant
Engineering Controls: Work in chemical fume hood or ventilated work area, use local exhaust to control dust
Personal Protective Equipment: Safety glasses with side shields or chemical goggles, disposable or nitrile gloves, laboratory coats or protective clothing, NIOSH-approved dust mask if dust exposure risk is likely
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands before breaks and after work, remove contaminated clothing before entering eating areas
