See also Section 8.

For emergency responders: Use personal protection recommended in Section 8.

Environmental Precautions:

Environmental Precautions: Contain spilled product on land, if possible. Local authorities should be advised if
significant spillages cannot be contained.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Methods for containment: Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.

Methods for cleaning up: Clean up promptly by vacuum. Use of a vacuum with high efficiency particulate air (HEPA)
filtration is recommended. Do not create a dust cloud by using a brush or compressed air.
Pick up and transfer to properly labelled containers. See Section 13.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Precautions for safe handling

Advice on safe handling: Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid dust formation. Do not breathe dust. Provide
