Effects of Overexposure:HLTH HAZS: LATEST HAZ LIST & SAFE HNDLG & EXPOS
INFO . CHRONIC & PRLNGD INHAL OF HIGH CONCS OF FUMES/DUST OF
FOLLOWING ELEMENTS MAY LEAD TO CNDTNS LISTED. CARBON (C): ELEMENTAL
C, AS IT EXISTS I N PROD, IS OF VERY LOW TOX. HLTH HAZ HERE BASED
ON CARBON BLACK, NOT C AS FOUND IN PROD. CHRONIC INHAL OF CARBON
BLACK - TEMPORARY/PERM DMG TO LUNGS & HEART. PNEUMOCONIOSIS FOUND
IN WORKERS PRODUCING CARBON BLACK. SKIN CNDTNS SUCH AS INFLAM OF
HAIR FOLLICLES & ORAL MUCOSAL LESIONS FROM SKIN EXPOS. CHROMIUM

OF UPPER RESP TRACT, LESI ONS OF SKIN & MUC MEMBS & POSS (SUPDAT)
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:INDIVIDUALS WITH CHRONIC
RESPIRATORY DISORDERS (IE, ASTHMA, CHRONIC BRONCHITIS, EMPHYSEMA,
ETC) MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY FUME OR AIRBORNE PARTICULATE
MATTER EXPOSURE.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR; IF CONDITION CONTINUES,
CONSULT A PHYSICIAN. EYE CONTACT: FLUSH THOROUGHLY WITH RUNNING
WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES TO REMOVE PARTICULATE; TAKE CARE TO
RINSE UNDER E YELIDS. OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN CONTACT:
REMOVE PARTICULATE BY WASHING THOROUGHLY WITH SOAP AND WATER. SEEK
MEDICAL ATTENTION IF CONDITION PERSISTS. FOR MINOR BURNS, APPLY
COLD WATER. FOR SEVER E BURNS, SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.
INGESTION: DOES NOT REPRESENT A HAZARD. IF SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF
METAL ARE INGESTED, CONSULT PHYSICIAN.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Extinguishing Media:DRY POWDERED DOLOMITE, DRY SAND OR DRY GRAPHITE; DO
NOT USE WATER ON MOLTEN METAL.
Fire Fighting Procedures:USE NIOSH APPROVED SCBA AND FULL PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT . NOTE: PRODUCTS IN THE SOLID STATE PRESENT NO FIRE OR
EXPLOSION HAZARD. SMALL CHIPS, FINES AND DUST MAY IGNITE READILY.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:DO NOT USE WATER ON MOLTEN METAL. USE
COARSE WATER SPRAY ON CHIPS, TURNINGS, ETC. ARC/SPK GENERATED WHEN
WELDING OR BURNING COULD BE SOURCE OF IGNIT FOR COMBUST & FLAM
MATLS. DUST CLOUDS MAY BE EXPLO; PVNT FORM. MOLTEN ALUMINUM MAY
ALSO REACT VIOLENTLY W/RUST & CERTAIN METAL OXIDES (IE CU, FE, PB).
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:FINE TURNINGS AND SMALL CHIPS SHOULD BE SWEPT
OR VACUUMED. SCRAP METAL CAN BE RECLAIMED FOR RE-USE.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:SEE FIRE & EXPLO HAZ DATA. IN WELDING,
PRECS SHOULD BE TAKEN FOR AIRBORNE CONTAMINANTS WHICH MAY ORIGINATE
FROM COMPONENTS OF WELDING ROD. RECENT EPIDERMIOLOGICAL STUDIES OF
WORKERS MELTING & WORKING ALLOYS CONTAINING NICKEL & CHROMIUM HAVE
FOUND NO INCREASED RISK OF CANCER.
Other Precautions:NOT REQUESTED BY USA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION.
SINCE LEAD IS CUMULATIVE TOX METAL BY INHAL/INGEST, APPROP INDUS
PRECS TO GUARD AGAINST THOSE TWO ROUTES OF EXPOS NEED TO BE TAKEN
WHEN HNDLG THESE A LLOYS. SAMPLING TO ESTABLISH LEAD LEVEL EXPOS TO
AIRBORNE PARTICULATE/FUMES IS POSS. CONSULT OSHA (S UPDAT)
============= Exposure Controls/Personal Protection =============
Respiratory Protection:APPROPRIATE DUST/MIST/FUME RESPIRATOR SHOULD BE
USED TO AVOID EXCESSIVE INHALATION OF PARTICULATES. IF EXPOSURE
LIMITS ARE REACHED OR EXCEEDED, USE NIOSH APPROVED EQUIPMENT.
Ventilation:USE WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION TO MEET EXPOSURE LIMITS
LISTED IN INGREDIENT SECTION.
Protective Gloves:IMPERVIOUS GLOVES .
Eye Protection:ANSI APPROVED CHEMICAL WORKERS GOGGLES AND FULL LENGTH
FACESHIELD .
Other Protective Equipment:AS REQUIRED DEPENDING ON OPERATIONS AND
SAFETY CODES. ANSI APPROVED EYE WASH AND DELUGE SHOWER .
Work Hygienic Practices:WASH WITH SOAP AND WATER.
