Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Inhalation: Remove worker from source of exposure
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin with water. Do not rub or scratch exposed skin. If symptoms persist obtain medical attention. Contaminated clothing should be laundered before reissue to remove this substance.
Eye contact: Do not rub eyes. Irrigate with eye wash solution or clean water, holding the eyelids apart, for at least 10 minutes. Obtain medical attention.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Wash out mouth with water and give water to drink. Obtain medical attention if ill effects occur.
Further Medical Treatment: Unlikely to be required but if necessary treat symptomatically.
Fire-fighting measures
General: Non-combustible
Extinguishing media: As appropriate for the surrounding fire situation
Accidental release measures
Personal Protection: During removal of spillages, use personal protection (including gloves and a suitable dust mask).
General: Protect against dust generation. Collect dust and loose material using a high efficiency vacuum cleaner. If vacuum cleaner is unavailable: moisten spillages with water. Clear up spillages. Transfer to a lidded container for disposal. To avoid blockages do not allow product to enter drains / sewage.
Handling and storage
Handling: Dust generation should be minimized. Good housekeeping and hygiene practices should be followed during handling.
Storage: Packaging should be kept closed and intact to reduce the possibility of releasing dust. Re-use of packaging is not recommended in case residual fibrous dust and product debris are present.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/ face protection. Loose fitting long sleeved clothing is recommended.
Provide adequate ventillation, including appropriate local extraction, to ensure that the defined occupational exposure limit is not exceeded. A suitable dust mask should be worn if exposure to levels above the occupational exposure limit is likely. The selection of a suitable mask will depend upon the likely atmospheric concentration and the performance data of the mask. Check with protective equipment manufacturers's data. Contaminated clothing should be laundered before reissue to remove this substance.
