To help protect against expected or unexpected irritations or reactions, wear all properly
selected protective equipment and clothing as shown in the exposure controls and
personal protection section of this MSDS. Wash hands and face after handling and
before eating, drinking, smoking or using restroom facilities. After each shift, clean all
protective equipment, wash all work clothes, and shower. See section 11, Toxicology
Information.
If mixed with air in sufficient amounts & proportions, organic dusts can form flammable
or explosive dust/air mixtures. As precautions, keep areas clean and avoid dust build up.
Have plenty of good ventilation. Avoid creating very dusty conditions. When mixing,
pouring or processing bulk amounts of powders, ground all containers and avoid static
charges, sparks, smoking, open flames, or other possible causes of fire or explosion.
4. First Aid Measures
Breathing product dust: Move to fresh air. If person
Inhalation:
is having difficulty breathing, give oxygen. If not
breathing, give artificial respiration, and seek
emergency medical help immediately.
Remove affected clothing. Wash affected skin area
Skin contact:
with plenty of soap and water. Rinse with plenty of
water. Wash all work clothes before wearing again. If
any redness, swelling, itching, or skin pain starts,
