If swallowed: Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water. Obtain medical attention.
Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media: Dry sodium chloride, Special powder against metal fire, Sand
Unsuitable extinguishing media: Water, Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Advice for firefighters:
Special protective equipment for firefighters: In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
Accidental release measures
Environmental precautions: No special environmental precautions required.
Methods for cleaning up: Use mechanical handling equipment. Avoid dust formation. Pick up and transfer to properly labelled containers.
Handling and storage
Advice on safe handling: Avoid dust formation. Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms. Avoid exceeding the given occupational exposure limits.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion: Keep away from heat, open flames, sparks, hot surfaces and sources of ignition. No smoking. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. During processing, dust may form explosive mixture in air. Do not mix with combustible materials.
Hygiene measures: Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Keep working clothes separately.
