Flush eyes with water at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention
if eye irritation develops or persists.
Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell.
Chemical powder extinguisher, aqueous liquid foam (alcohol
resistance foam) fire extinguishing media, carbon dioxide, sand,
atomized water.
No data available
At the time of fire, poisonous gases can be generated.
Keep upwind of fire. Wear full fire fighting turn-out gear (full
Bunker gear) and respiratory protection (SCBA). Cool container
with water spray.
Fight fire with normal precautions from a reasonable distance.
During fire fighting work, wear proper protective equipment.
Promptly remove possible ignition sources from the vicinity.
Use personal protection recommended in Section 8. Isolate the
hazard area and deny entry to unnecessary and unprotected
personnel.
Do not flush to sewer or allow to enter waterways.
Prevent scattering and spread by covering with antistatic sheet
and the like.
Carefully shovel or sweep up spilled material and place in
suitable container.Avoid generatingdust.
Eliminate all ignition sources. Use explosion-proof equipment.
Dust can be a fire or explosion hazard. Vacuum or sweep material
and place in a disposal container.
During handling, be sure to wear proper protective equipment
(refer to the section 8).
Do not breathe dust.
The dust can be charged with static electricity. Suppress
generation and accumulation of dust as much as possible. Take
countermeasures for static electricity removal (grounding,
others). Wear antistatic clothes and antistatic shoes to prevent
human body electrification.
Use explosion-proof electrical/ventilating/lighting equipment.
Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No
smoking.
Do not handle the containers harshly in such a way as to make
them tumbled, dropped, given a shock, or dragged.
