If not breathing give artificial respiration In case of skin contact Wash off with soap and plenty of water. In case of eye contact Flush eyes with water as a precaution. If swallowed Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water. 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES Flammable properties Flash point no data available Ignition temperature no data available Suitable extinguishing media Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide. Special protective equipment for fire-fighters Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal precautions Avoid dust formation. Environmental precautions Do not let product enter drains. Methods for cleaning up Sweep up and shovel. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed. Normal measures for preventive fire protection. Storage Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Recommended storage temperature: 2 - 8 C Keep in a dry place. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Contains no substances with occupational exposure limit values. Personal protective equipment Respiratory protection Respiratory protection is not required. Where protection from nuisance levels of dusts are desired, use type N95 (US) or type P1 (EN 143) dust masks. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU). Hand protection For prolonged or repeated contact use protective gloves.
