4 FIRST AID MEASURES

Inhalation: Treat symptomatically. Move to fresh air. Get medical attention if symptoms persist.
Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water. Get medical attention if symptoms occur. If burned by contact with hot material, cool molten
material adhering to skin as quickly as possible with water, and see a physician for removal of adhering material and
treatment of burn. Get medical attention.
Eye Contact: Any material that contacts the eye should be washed out immediately with water. If easy to do, remove contact lenses.
Get medical attention if syjmptoms persist. If molten material contacts the eye, immdiately flush with plenty of water for
at least 15 minutes.
Ingestion: See medical advice. Material is not expected to be absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract so that induction of vomiting
should not be necessary.

SDS Number: See Product Code Page: 1/4 Revision Date: 1/4/2021
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:
Burns should be treated as thermal burns. The material will come off as healing occurs; therefore, immediate removal from the
skin is not necessary.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed:

Treatment: Treat symptomatically

5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Extinguishing Media:
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray. Dry chemical. Carbon dioxide
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: None known.

Advice for Firefighters:

Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Minimize dust generation and accumulation
Special Protective Equipment for Fire-fighters: Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire.

6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal Precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.

Environmental Precautions:
Not regarded as dangerous for the environment.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

Sweep up and place in a clearly labeled container for chemical waste.

Notification Procedures:
In the event of a spill or accidental release, notify relevant authorities in accordance with all applicable regulations

7 HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling Precautions: Avoid contact with molten material. Minimize dust generation and accumulation.
Storage Requirements: Keep container tightly closed. Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place.

8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Engineering Controls:
Personal Protective
Equipment:
Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be
matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other
engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits
have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
General Information:
Eye bath. Washing facilities.

Eye/Face Protection:
It is a good industrial hygiene practice to minimize eye contact. Wear a face shield when working with
molten material.

Skin/Hand Protection:
It is a good industrial hygiene practice to minimize skin contact. When material is heated, wear gloves to
protect against thermal burns.

Respiratory Protection:
If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below recommended exposure limites
(where applicable) or to an acceptable level (in countries where exposure limits have not been
established), an approved respirator must be worn. In the United States of America, if respirators are
used, a program should be instituted to assure compliance with OSHA Standard 63 FR 1152, January 8,
1998. Respirator type: Air-purifying respirator with an appropriate, government approved (where
applicable), air-purifying filter, cartridge or canister. Contact health and safety professional or
manufacturer for specific information.
Occupational Exposure Limits:
Country specific exposure limits have not been established or are not applicable unless listed.
