Section 4 - First-Aid Measures |
| Eye Contact: Flush with water for 15 minutes, including under eyelids. Get medical help if discomfort persists. |
| Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water. Get medical help if discomfort persists. |
| Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Get medical help if discomfort persists. |
| Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water. Call doctor if amount was large. |
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures |
| Extinguishing Media: Water, carbon dioxide, dry chemical. |
| Fire Fighting Procedures: Avoid extinguishing methods which may generate dust clouds. Water stream can diperse dust into air, producing a fire hazard and possible explosion hazard if exposed to ignition source. |
| Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Polymer dust is combustible. The explosive limits of the polymer particles suspended in ir are approximately those of coal dust. |
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures |
| Steps to be Taken if Material is Released or Spilled: Sweep up to avoid slipping hazard. Keep airborne particulates at a minimum when cleaning up spills. |
| Personal Precautions: |
| Environmental Precautions: |
Section 7 - Handling and Storage |
| General Handling: Keep out of reach of children. |
| Other Precautions: Use in well ventilated areas. Wear gloves when handling powder. |
