Unusal Fire/Explosion Hazard: NEGLIG FIRE HAZ IN METALLIC FORM; HOWEVER DUST,
PWDR OR FUMES ARE FLAM OR EXPLO WHEN EXPOSED TO HEAT/FLAMES. FINELY DIVIDED
COBALT MAY BE PYROPHORIC IN AIR.
==============================================================================
RELEASE MEASURES
==============================================================================
Spill Release Procedures: OCCUPATIONAL SPILL: FOR LARGE SPILLS, SWEEP UP WITH A
MINIMUM OF DUSTING AND PLACE INTO SUITABLE CLEAN, DRY CONTAINERS FOR
RECLAMATION OR LATER DISPOSAL. RESIDUE SHOULD BE CLEANED UP USING A
HIGH-EFFICIENCY PARTICULATE FILTER VACUUM.

HANDLING AND STORAGE
==============================================================================
STORE AWAY FROM INCOMPATIBLE SUBSTANCES.
==============================================================================
EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
==============================================================================
Respiratory Protection: THE SPECIFIC RESPIRATOR SELECTED MUST BE BASED ON
CONTAM LEVELS FOUND IN THE WORK PLACE, MUST NOT EXCEED THE WORKING LIMITS OF
THE RESPIRATOR AND BE NIOSH APPROVED. FOR A LIST OF SPECIFIC RESPIRATORS
CONTACT NEHC (FP N).
Ventilation: PROVIDE LOCAL EXHAUST VENTILATION TO MEET PUBLISHED EXPOSURE
LIMITS. VENTILATION EQUIPMENT MUST BE EXPLOSION-PROOF.
Protective Gloves: IMPERVIOUS GLOVES (FP N).
Eye Protection: ANSI APPRVD CHEM WORKERS GOGGS (ING 25)
Other Equipment: ANSI APPROVED EYE WASH & DELUGE SHOWER (FP N). EMPLOYEE
MUST WEAR APPROP PROTECTIVE (IMPERVIOUS) CLOTHING & EQUIPMENT.
Work Hygenic Practices: ANSI APPROVED EYE WASH & DELUGE SHOWER (FP N).
EMPLOYEE MUST WEAR APPROP PROTECTIVE (IMPERVIOUS) CLOTHING & EQUIPMENT.
Supplemental Safety & Health: EXTING MEDIA: BURNING MATL. EXTING USING
AGENT FOR TYPE OF FIRE. FIRE FIGHT PROC: AFTER FIRE IS OUT. STAY AWAY FROM ENDS
OF TANKS. FOR MASSIVE FIRE IN CARGO AREA, USE UNMANNED HOSE HOLDER OR MONITOR
NOZZS; IF THIS IS IMPOSS, W/DRAW & LET AR EA BURN. MATL TO AVOID: OXIDIZERS
(STRONG), 1,3,4,7-TETRAMETHYLISOINDOLE.
