SECTION 4: First aid measures
4.1 Description of first aid measures
If inhaled : Move to fresh air.
Treat symptomatically.
If symptoms persist, call a physician.
In case of skin contact : Wash off with soap and water.
If symptoms persist, call a physician.
Cool skin rapidly with cold water after contact with molten
material.
Do not peel solidified product off the skin.
Burns must be treated by a physician.
In case of eye contact : In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty
of water and seek medical advice.
If swallowed : Seek medical advice.
4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

4.3 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Treatment : Treat symptomatically.
SECTION 5: Firefighting measures
5.1 Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media : Water spray
Dry chemical
Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Unsuitable extinguishing : Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread
media fire.
5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Specific hazards during fire- : Avoid generating dust; fine dust dispersed in air in sufficient
fighting concentrations, and in the presence of an ignition source is a
potential dust explosion hazard.

Engineering measures
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.
Personal protective equipment
Eye protection : Safety glasses
Wear a face shield when working with molten material.
Hand protection
Remarks : Wear suitable gloves. When handling hot material, use heat
resistant gloves.
Skin and body protection : Wear suitable protective clothing.
Respiratory protection : Use respiratory protection unless adequate local exhaust ven-
tilation is provided or exposure assessment demonstrates that
exposures are within recommended exposure guidelines.
Wear respiratory protection when its use is identified for cer-
tain contributing scenario.
Protective measures : Ensure that eye flushing systems and safety showers are
located close to the working place.
