Other hazards which do not result in classification
Caution) -Take precautionary measures against generation and accumulation of dust when handling in large quantities or in bulk. -May cause dust explosion with heat, sparks or static electricity when dust accumulates in large quantities. Minimum explosive dust concentration 85 dm’, Mukai et al, 1995 ) -Avoid contact with open flame, heat, static electricity and sparks when the dust is generated. Avoid contact with oxidizing agents to avoid explosion and combustion. -Use normal extinguishers when there is ignition. -May cause irritation in contact with eyes, throat, skin and abrasive irritation. Use safety goggles, masks and gloves when handling. -This is expected to have low hazard toxicity for usual industrial handling. Dust ingestion and inhalation may cause irritation to eyes and nose. May cause coughing or unpleasant feeling. -Spilled powder becomes slippery when wet.
