Route Of Entry Inds - Inhalation: YES
Skin: YES
Ingestion: NO
Carcinogenicity Inds - NTP: NO
IARC: NO
OSHA: NO
Effects of Exposure: EYE: SOLID OR DUST MAY CAUSE IRRITATION OR CORNEAL INJURY
DUE TO MECHANICAL ACTION. ELEVATED TEMPERATURES MAY GENERATE VAPOR LEVELS
SUFFICIENT TO CAUSE EYE IRRITATION. SKIN: ESSENTIALLY NONIRRITATING TO SKIN.
MECHANICAL INJURY ONLY. SKIN ABSORPTION IS UNLIKELY DUE TO PHYSICAL
PROPERTIES. MOLTEN MATERIAL MAY BURN SKIN. INGESTION: SINGLE DOSE ORAL
TOXICITY CONSIDERED TO BE EXTREMELY LOW. NO HAZARDS ANTICIPATED FROM
SWALLOWING SMALL AMOUNTS INCIDENTAL TO NORMAL HANDLING OPERATIONS.
INHALATION: DUST MAY CAUSE IRRITATION TO UPPER RESPIRATORY TRACT. AT ROOM
(OVEREXPOSURE)
Explanation Of Carcinogenicity: NO RELEVANT INFORMATION FOUND.
Signs And Symptions Of Overexposure: HEALTH HAZARD: TEMPERATURE, EXPOSURE TO
VAPORS ARE UNLIKELY DUE TO PHYSICAL PROPERTIES; NORMAL PROCESSING
TEMPERATURES MAY GENERATE VAPORS WHICH MAY CAUSE IRRITATION IF VENTILATION IS
INADEQUATE. SYST EMIC (OTHER TARGET ORGANS): NO SPECIFIC DATA; HOWEVER,
REPEATED EXPOSURES TO UNHEATED MATL NOT ANTICIPATED TO CAUSE ANY SIGNIFICANT
ADVERSE EFFECTS. PROCESSING FUMES MAY CAUSE EYE & RESPIRATORY IRRITA TION
UPON REPEATED EXPOSURE.
First Aid: EYE: FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. SKIN: WASH
OFF IN FLOWING WATER OR SHOWER. INGESTION: NO ADVERSE EFFECTS ANTICIPATED BY
THIS ROUTE OF EXPOSURE INCIDENTAL TO PROPER INDUSTRIAL HANDLING. INHALATION:
REMOVE TO FRESH AIR IF EFFECTS OCCUR. CONSULT A PHYSICIAN. NOTE TO PHYSICIAN:
IF BURN IS PRESENT, TREAT AS ANY THERMAL BURN, AFTER DECONTAMINATION. NO
SPECIFIC ANTIDOTE. SUPORTI VE CARE. TREATMENT BASED ON JUDGEMENT OF THE
PHYSICIAN IN RESPONSE TO REACTIONS OF THE PATIENT.

Control Measures
=======================================================
Respiratory Protection: A NIOSH APPROVED RESPIRATOR APPROPRIATE FOR THE
EXPOSURE OF CONCERN (FP N). IN DUSTY ATMOSPHERES, USE AN APPROVED DUST
RESPIRATOR. FOR MOST CONDITIONS, NO RESPIRATORY PROTECTION SHOULD BE NEEDED;
HOWE VER, IF HANDLING AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURES WITHOUT SUFFICIENT
VENTILATION, USE AN APPROVED AIR PURIFYING RESPIRATOR. EXPOSURE GUIDELINES:
NOT ESTABLISHED.
Ventilation: GOOD GENERAL VENT SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT FOR MOST CONDITIONS. LOCAL
EXHAUST VENT MAY BE NECESSARY FOR SOME OPERATIONS.
Protective Gloves: IMPERVIOUS GLOVES(FP N). WITH INSULATION FOR THERMAL
PROTECTION IF NEEDED.
Eye Protection: ANSI APPROVED CHEMICAL SAFETY GOGGLES (FP N). IF THERE IS (WORK
HYGIENE PRAC)
Other Protective Equipment: EYEWASH AND DELUGE SHOWER MEETING ANSI DESIGN
CRITERIA (FP N). CLEAN, BODY-COVERING CLOTHING.
Work Hygienic Practices: N/P. EYE PROTECTION: A POTENTIAL FOR EXPOS TO
PARTICLES WHICH COULD CAUSE MECHANICAL INJURY TO EYE, WEAR CHEM GOGGS. IF
VAPOR EXPOS CAUSES EYE DISCOMFORT, USE A NIOSH APPRVD FULL FACE RESPIRATOR
(MFR).
Supplemental Safety and Health: SPECIAL FIREFIGHT: SCBAA & PROTECTIVE FIRE
FIGHTING CLOTHING (INCL FIREFIGHTING HELMET, COAT, PANTS, BOOTS &
GLOVES). IF PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT IS NOT AVAILABLE OR NOT USED, FIGHT FIRE
FROM A PROTECTED LOCATION OR SAFE DISTANCE.
