No adverse effects expected. Large doses may cause gastro-intestinal upset.
D&J Chemicals Co., Ltd.
Skin Contact:
No adverse effects expected.
Eye Contact:
No adverse effects expected but dust may cause mechanical irritation.

No information found.
4. First Aid Measures
Inhalation:
Not expected to require first aid measures. Remove to fresh air. Get medical
attention for any breathing difficulty.
Ingestion:
Not expected to require first aid measures. If large amounts were swallowed,
give water to drink and get medical advice.
Skin Contact:
Not expected to require first aid measures. Wash exposed area with soap and
water. Get medical advice if irritation develops.
Eye Contact:
Not expected to require first aid measures. Wash thoroughly with running
water. Get medical advice if irritation develops.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Fire:
Not considered to be a fire hazard. As with most organic solids, fire is possible
at elevated temperatures or by contact with an ignition source.
Explosion:
Not considered to be an explosion hazard.
Fire Extinguishing Media:
Dry chemical, foam, water or carbon dioxide.
Special Information:
Use protective clothing and breathing equipment appropriate for the
surrounding fire.
6. Accidental Release Measures
D&J Chemicals Co., Ltd.
Remove all sources of ignition. Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate
personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Spills: Clean up spills
in a manner that does not disperse dust into the air. Use non-sparking tools and
equipment. Reduce airborne dust and prevent scattering by moistening with
water. Pick up spill for recovery or disposal and place in a closed container.
7. Handling and Storage
Keep in a tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Protect
from physical damage. Separate from oxidizing materials. Store in the dark.
Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain
product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for
the product.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Airborne Exposure Limits:
None established.
Ventilation System:
Not expected to require any special ventilation. A system of local
and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures
as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally
preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant
at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work
area. Please refer to the ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation,
A Manual of Recommended Practices, most recent edition, for
details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):
Not expected to require personal respirator usage. For conditions
of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and engineering
controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator (NIOSH type
N95 or better filters) may be worn. If oil particles (e.g.
lubricants, cutting fluids, glycerine, etc.) are present, use a
NIOSH type R or P filter. For emergencies or instances where the
exposure levels are not known, use a full-face positive-pressure,
air-supplied respirator. WARNING: Air-purifying respirators do
not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Skin Protection:
Wear protective gloves and clean body-covering clothing.
