Skin Contact: Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Call a physician, immediately. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion: If swallowed, do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to and unconscious person. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt, or waistband. Get medical attention immediately.

Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures

Flash Point: NA
Fire Extinguishing Media: Adapt extinguishing media to the environment. Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
Extinguishing Media Not recommended: None specified.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Flammable hydrogen gas may be produced on prolong contact with metals such as aluminum, tin lead and zinc.
Hazardous combustion products: Oxides of Potassium.
Special Information: In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full face piece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode. At high temperatures under fire conditions, it may produce toxic or irritating fumes. Fire-extinguishing work is done from the windward and the suitable fire-extinguishing method according to the surrounding situation is used.

Section 6: Accidental Release Measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment, and emergency procedures: Wear suitable protective equipment. Ventilate area of leak or spill. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.). Restrict unprotected personnel from the area. Do not approach facing the wind.
Environmental precautions: Do not let the product enter drains, soil, or water sources.
Methods and materials used for containment cleanup procedures and Storage: Small quantities of liquid spill may be neutralized with acid solution. Wash away neutralized product with plentiful water. Contain spilled material. Take up liquid spill into absorbent material, e.g.: dry sand/earth or powdered limestone. Cover with an inert, non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g., sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite). Vacuum or sweep-up and remove to an approved disposal container.

Section 7: Handling and Storage

Precautions for safe handling: Ensure proper ventilation. Do not drink, eat, or smoke while handling. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Minimize dust generation. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.).
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in cool, dry, and ventilated area away from heat sources and protected from sunlight in tightly closed original container. Keep air contact to a minimum. Store protected from heat, sparks and ignition sources and incompatible materials. Avoid inhalation of dust/mist/vapor. Do not store with incompatible materials like strong oxidizing agents and water, acids, chlorinated hydrocarbons, metals, and organic materials. Always add the material to water while stirring and never the reverse.

Section 8: Exposure Controls / Personal Protection

Components with workplace control parameters
Derived No Effect Level (DNEL):
Application Area: Workers & Consumers
Exposure routes: Inhalation
Health effect Value, Long-term local effects: 1 mg/m3
USA ACGIH: 2 mg/m³ ACGIH Ceiling (mg/m³)
USA OSHA
: 2 mg/m³
Britain EH40: 2 mg/m³ OEL STEL (mg/m³)
Engineering Controls Ventilation required:  The material should be handled or transferred in an approved fume hood or with adequate ventilation.
Ventilation System: A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator may be worn. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator.
Skin Protection: Wear protective gloves and clean body-covering clothing.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles and/or full-face shield where dusting or splashing of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.
Other Control Measures: Maintain good housekeeping in work area. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
