4. FIRST AID MEASURES |
Eyes: Flush with eye
solution or water, gently lifting lids to clean.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing taking precautions to avoid breathing
dust that becomes airborne. Wash skin with soap and water. Get medical
attention if symptoms occur. Wash contaminated clothing as desired.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
Ingestion: Drink 1-2 glasses of water. Get medical attention if symptoms
occur. |
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES |
Flash Point:
NA Method: NA
Flammability Limits: Not Determined
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Airborne carbon dust can ignite. Burning
carbon may not be obvious, may be seen as sparking or flowing when stirred.
Extinguishing Media: Water, dry chemical, carbon dioxide or other media for
Class A Combustibles is effective.
Unusual Fire And Explosion Hazard: Not Determined. |
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES |
|
Spill Control and
Recovery: Use water to control dust, scoop up into container for disposal. |
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE |
Stability: Material is
stable under normal storage and handling situations.
