Special Protective Equipment and Precautions for Fire Fighters: When fighting a major fire wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective equipment. 6 Accidental Release Measures Personal Precautions, Protective Equipment and Emergency Procedures: Wear approved dust/particulate filter respirator and full protective clothing. Evacuate all non-essential personnel from affected area. Do not breathe dust. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid generating dust. Environmental Precautions: In the event of a major spill, prevent spillage from entering drains or water courses. Inform respective authorities in case of seepage into water course or sewage system. Methods and Materials for Containment and Cleaning Up: Stop leak if safe to do so and sweep granules into a pile and shovel into drums for subsequent disposal. Avoid generating dust. Provide adequate ventilation. Decontaminate spill area with detergent and water. 7 Handling and Storage Precautions for Safe Handling: Use of safe work practices are recommended to avoid eye or skin contact and inhalation of dust. Food, beverages and tobacco products should not be stored or consumed where this material is in use. Always wash hands before smoking, eating, drinking or using the toilet. Wash contaminated clothing and other protective equipment before storage or re-use. Provide eyewash fountains and safety showers in close proximity to points of potential exposure. Conditions for Safe Storage: Store in a cool, dry and well ventilated area. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Keep away from strong oxidising agents such as fluorine, bromine trifluoride, chlorine trifluoride, manganese trifluoride, oxygen difluoride, and ozone; acids such as hydrofluoric acid, and hydrochloric acid; strong alkalis; vinyl acetate, and xenon hexafluoride. 8 Exposure Controls and Personal Protection Exposure Standards: CAS: 7631-86-9 Silica WES TWA: 2 mg/m³ CAS: 1309-37-1 Iron(III) oxide WES TWA: 5 mg/m³ CAS: 12001-26-2 Potassium Aluminum Silicate WES TWA: 2.5 mg/m³ CAS: 7440-50-8 Copper WES TWA: 1* 0.2** mg/m³ *dust & mists (as Cu) **fume CAS: 7440-61-1 Uranium WES STEL: 0.6 mg/m³ TWA: 0.2 mg/m³ as U Engineering Controls: Ensure adequate ventilation of the working area, keeping airborne concentrations below occupational exposure standards. Respiratory Protection: Where an inhalation risk exists, wear approved particulate respirator (filter type P). At high dust levels, wear a powered air purifying respirator (PAPR) with P3 filter or an air-line respirator or a full-face P3 (particulate) respirator. See Australian/New Zealand Standards AS/NZS 1715 and 1716 for more information.

See Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 2161 for more information. When selecting gloves for use against certain chemicals, the degradation resistance, permeation rate and permeation breakthrough time should be considered. Occupational protective clothing (depending on conditions in which it has to be used, in particular as regards the period for which it is worn, which shall be determined on the basis of the seriousness of the risk, the frequency of exposure to the risk, the characteristics of the workstation of each worker and the performance of the protective clothing). See Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 4501 for more information. Eye and Face Protection: Eye and face protectors for protection against dust. See Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 1337 for more information. 9 Physical and Chemical Properties Appearance: Form: Powder Colour: Pale grey to tan to dark grey Odour: None Odour Threshold: No information available pH-Value: Not applicable Melting point/freezing point: No information available Initial Boiling Point/Boiling Range: No information available No information available Flash Point: Not applicable Flammability (solid, gas): No information available Auto-ignition Temperature: No information available Decomposition Temperature: No information available Explosion Limits: Lower: No information available Upper: No information available Vapour Pressure: Not applicable Density: No information available Evaporation Rate: Not applicable Solubility in Water: Insoluble Partition Coefficient (n-octanol/water): No information available Viscosity: No information available 10 Stability and Reactivity Possibility of Hazardous Reactions: No dangerous reactions known under conditions of normal use.
