| EXTINGUISHING MEDIA; |
Use extinguishing agent applicable to surrounding fire. If oxidation starts, the material should be cooled with water to dissipate the heat. |
| FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS |
Fire fighters should wear NIOSH approved, positive pressure, self contained breathiing apparatus and full protective
clothing when appropriate. |
| UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSIVE HAZARDS |
Black iron oxide may be sugect to rapid oxidization if stored at temperatures above 140F |
| 6. Accidental Release Measures |
| Small/large spills |
Clean up using dry procedures: avoid dusting. |
| 7. Handling and Storage |
| Handling |
Good industral hygiene practice requires that employee exposure be maintained below TLV. This is preferably achieved through the provision
of adequate ventilation where necessary. Where dust cannot be controlled in this way, personal respiratory protection should be employed. |
| Storage |
Store in a clean, dry area at ambient temperatures in original unopened containers. Conditions of high humidity may require
storage in a controlled envirnment. Store at temperatures well below 140F |
| 8. Exposure Control/Personal Protection |
| Engineering Controls |
Use with adequate ventilation to meet exposure limits listed in section 2 |
| RESPIRATORY CONTROL |
NIOSHA approved dust respirator if overexposure potential exists. |
| Skin Protection |
Leather or rubber gloves |
| Eye Protection |
Safety glasses/goggles or face shield recommended. |
