First Aid Measures

Inhalation: Move person to fresh air, provide oxygen if breathing is difficult, seek medical attention for persistent symptoms
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing, wash skin thoroughly with soap and water, do not reuse contaminated clothing
Eye Contact: Rinse eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lift eyelids occasionally, seek medical attention if irritation persists
Ingestion: Rinse mouth, drink 1–2 glasses of water, do not induce vomiting, contact physician or poison control right away

Fire-Fighting Measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam
Unsuitable Media: Do not use direct water stream on burning product; product may float and reignite
Specific Hazards: Emits toxic fumes under fire conditions, may release nitrogen oxides and carbon oxides
Protective Equipment: Firefighters wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear
Special Procedures: Remove containers from fire area, cool unopened containers with water, control run-off to prevent environmental contamination

Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions: Evacuate unnecessary personnel, avoid dust formation, ventilate area
Protective Equipment: Wear gloves, goggles, and protective clothing, use a NIOSH-approved respirator where needed
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into sewers, drains, waterways, and soil
Methods for Cleanup: Sweep or scoop spilled material and place in suitable container for disposal, wash spill site with water after removal, ventilate area well to reduce possible airborne dust exposure

Handling and Storage

Handling: Use in well-ventilated workspace, avoid contact with skin and eyes, minimize dust generation, avoid inhalation of powder, practice good industrial hygiene
Storage: Store in tightly closed original container, keep in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, separate from incompatible substances, protect from moisture and direct sunlight, store away from strong acids, oxidizers, and food products

Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Exposure Limit: No OSHA, ACGIH, or NIOSH guidelines specifically established for this compound
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust, provide safety showers and eyewash stations
Personal Protection: Nitrile or latex gloves, chemical safety goggles, lab coat, NIOSH-approved dust respirator if airborne exposure is possible, avoid ingestion and inhalation, do not eat, drink, or smoke while handling the substance, wash hands thoroughly after handling
