ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
Ventilation should effectively remove and prevent build-up of any dust generated from the
handling of this product. Local exhaust ventilation is recommended when generating excessive
levels of airborne dust or vapours from handling or thermal processing. Use explosion-proof
equipment if high dust/air concentrations are possible.
PERSONAL PROTECTION:
PERSONAL PROTECTION GUIDE: COTTON OVERALLS, GLOVES &
GLASSES. Avoid eye contact and repeated or prolonged skin contact. Wear overalls,
safety glasses and impervious gloves If ventilation is not sufficient to effectively
prevent build-up of dusts, appropriate NIOSH/MSHA respiratory protection must be
provided. Always wash hands before smoking, eating, drinking or using the toilet.
FLAMMABILITY:
Flash Point: N/A
Method Used: N/A
Flammability Classification: N/A
ENVIRONMENT:
Slightly water soluble inorganic product. It can be eliminated mechanically from
water in purification tanks.
Toxicity to fish (Brachydamia rerio): LC50 (96hr): >10,000 mg/l. Nominal
concentration.

Keep container dry. Store away from excessive heat and away from strong oxidizing
agents, strong acids, food and feedstuffs. Keep container tightly closed to prevent
contamination.
HANDLING:
Remove all ignition sources from material handling, transfer, and processing areas
where dust may be present. Local exhaust ventilation should be provided in work
areas. Ensure that airborne dust concentrations are controlled within regulatory dust
standards.
TRANSPORT:
Not a hazardous material for transportation.
DOT REGULATIONS:
Hazard Class: None
Land transport ADR/RID (cross-border)
ADR/RID Class: None
Maritime transport IMDG:
IMDG Class: None
Air transport ICAO-TI and IATA-DGR:
ICAO/IATA Class: None
SPILLS & DISPOSAL:
Sweep spilled substance into containers and if appropriate, moisten first to minimize
or prevent dusting and the generation of airborne particulates, then move to a safe
place. Do not let the spilled substance enter the environment. Avoid the generation of
dust during clean-up. Collect dust or powder using a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA
filter. Evacuate the area promptly and keep upwind of the spilled material. Isolate
the spill area to prevent people from entering.
FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD:
HAZARDS OF USE/STORAGE:
Dust accumulation from this product may present an explosion hazard in the presence
of an ignition source.
