General Information: As in any flre, wear a self-containedbreathing apparatus in
pressure-demand,MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear.
Dust can be an explosion hazard when exposed to heat or flarne. Flammablesolid.
May burn rapidly with flare burning effect. May re-ignite atler fire is extinguished.
