Other physicochemical hazards

Handling the product in room temperature presents no risks for the operator. When in direct burn, generates flame and produces water, carbon dioxide, and in lack of oxygen, also generates carbon monoxide. Products of fire are irritating and toxic. In high combustion temperatures (between 400°C and 700°C) other products as hydrocarbonets and aldehydes may be formed. High concentration of dust, in suspension, is flammable. Heat, sparks and direct flame may cause ignition and explosion in closed areas. ________________________________________________________________ - Specific hazards Does not present specific danger, for being inert. 3.
