Section 2 : Hazards Identification

Emergency Overview
CAUTION! MAY CAUSE EYE, SKIN AND RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and
clothing. Avoid breathing airborne product. Keep container closed. Use with adequate ventilation. Wash thoroughly
after handling.

This product is a/an dark brown to black powder. May form explosive dust-air mixtures. Slippery when wet.

Acute Effects
Health Hazards, General
Particulates may cause mechanical irritation to the eyes, nose, throat and lungs. Particulate inhalation may lead to
pulmonary fibrosis, chronic bronchitis, emphysema and bronchial asthma. Dermatitis and asthma may result from
short contact periods.

Inhalation : May be irritating to the respiratory tract if inhaled.

Ingestion : May cause gastric distress, nausea and vomiting if ingested.
Skin : May be irritating to the skin.
Eyes : May be irritating to the eyes.

Chronic Effects:
Carcinogenicity: IARC: Not listed. OSHA: Not regulated. NTP: Not listed.
ATTENTION! CANCER HAZARD. CONTAINS CRYSTALLINE SILICA WHICH CAN CAUSE
CANCER. Risk of cancer depends on duration and level of exposure.

IARC Monographs, Vol. 68, 1997, concludes that there is sufficient evidence that inhaled crystalline
silica in the form of quartz or cristobalite from occupational sources causes cancer in humans. IARC
classification Group 1.

Route Of Entry:
Inhalation. Skin and/or eye contact.

Target Organs:
Respiratory system, lungs. Skin. Eyes

Notes : For the full text of the H-Statements mentioned in this Section, see Section 16.

Section 4 : First Aid Measures

General : Persons seeking medical attention should carry a copy of this MSDS with them.
Inhalation : Move the exposed person to fresh air at once. Perform artificial respiration if breathing has stopped.
Get medical attention.
Ingestion : Drink a couple of glasses water or milk. Do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by a
physician. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.
Skin : Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing. Get medical attention if
any discomfort continues.
Eyes : Promptly wash eyes with lots of water while lifting the eye lids. Continue to rinse for at least 15
minutes. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.

Section 5 : Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing Media : Carbon dioxide (CO2). Dry chemicals. Foam. Water spray, fog or mist.

Special Fire Fighting Procedures : No specific fire fighting procedure given.

Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards : Dust in high concentrations may form explosive mixtures with air.

Hazardous Combustion Products : Irritating gases/vapors/fumes. Oxides of: Carbon.

Section 6 : Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions : Wear proper personal protective equipment (see MSDS Section 8).
Spill Clean-Up Procedures : Avoid generating and spreading of dust. Shovel into dry containers. Cover and move
the containers. Flush the area with water. Do not contaminate drainage or
waterways. Repackage or recycle if possible.

Section 7 : Handling And Storage

Handling
Avoid handling causing generation of dust. Wear full protective clothing for prolonged exposure and/or high
concentrations. Eye wash and emergency shower must be available at the work place. Wash hands often and change
clothing when needed. Provide good ventilation. Mechanical ventilation or local exhaust ventilation is required.

Storage Precautions:
Store at moderate temperatures in dry, well ventilated area. Keep in original container.

Section 8 : Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

Engineering Controls
Use appropriate engineering controls such as, exhaust ventilation and process enclosure, to reduce air contamination
and keep worker exposure below the applicable limits.

Ventilation
Supply natural or mechanical ventilation adequate to exhaust airborne product and keep exposures below the
applicable limits.

Respirators
Use at least a NIOSH-approved N95 half-mask disposable or reusable particulate respirator. In work environments
containing oil mist/aerosol use at least a NIOSH-approved P95 half-mask disposable or reusable particulate
respirator.
For exposures exceeding 10 x PEL use a NIOSH-approved N100 Particulate Respirator.

Protective Gloves
Use suitable protective gloves if risk of skin contact.

Eye Protection
Wear dust resistant safety goggles where there is danger of eye contact.

Protective Clothing
Wear appropriate clothing to prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact.

Hygienic Work Practices

Wash promptly with soap and water if skin becomes contaminated. Change work clothing daily if there is any
possibility of contamination.
