HAZARD
IDENTIFICATION
==============================================================================
Route Of Entry Inds - Inhalation: YES Skin: YES Ingestion: YES
Carcinogenicity Inds - NTP: NO IARC: NO OSHA: NO
Health Hazards Acute And Chronic: ACUTE:INHALATION OF EXCESSIVE QUANTITIES OF
DUST, PARTICULARLY IF FRESHLY FORMED ZINC OXIDE FUME IS PRESENT WILL CAUSE
"METAL FUME FEVER". SYMPTOMS INCLUDE HEADACHE, FEVER, CHILLS, MUSCLE
ACHES, NAUSEA, VOMITING, WEAKNESS & TIREDNESS. ATTAC K MAY LAST 6-24 HOURS.
NO LONG-TERM EFFECTS KNOWN. (SEE EFTS OF OVEREXP)
Explanation of Carcinogenicity: NOT RELEVANT
Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: HLTH HAZ:EYE:CONTACT WILL RESULT IN
IRRITATION.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure: IF YOU HAVE A CONDITION THAT
COULD BE AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE TO DUST OR ORGANIC VAPORS, SEE MD PRIOR TO USE.
==============================================================================
FIRST AID
==============================================================================
EYE:FLUSH W/WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MIN. SKIN:WASH W/SOAP & WATER. REMOVE
CONTAMINATED CLOTHING & CLEAN BEFORE REUSE. INHAL:REMOVE TO FRESH AIR.
PROVIDE OXYGEN IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT. USE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION IF NOT
BREATHING. GET MD. IN GEST:DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. ALWAYS GET MD.

FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
==============================================================================
Flash Point Text: N/K
Auto Ignition Temperature Text:
Lower Limits: N/K Upper Limits: N/K
Extinguishing Media: DRY CHEMICAL. DO NOT USE WATER.
Fire Fighting Procedures: WEAR NIOSH/MSHA APPRVD SCBA & FULL PROT EQUIP (FP
N). EVACUATE HAZ AREA. COVER ALL OPEN ZINC DUST CNTNRS. DO NOT SPREAD OUT MATL.
WATER WILL REACT (SUPP DATA)
Unusal Fire/Explosion Hazard: HYDROGEN GAS EVOLVES WHEN IN CONTACT W/MOISTURE,
ALKALIS OR ACIDS. MAY EXPLODE ON CNTCT W/OXIDIZING AGENTS SUCH AS SULFUR &
OXYGEN OR OTHERS.
==============================================================================
RELEASE MEASURES
==============================================================================
Spill Release Procedures: USE DRY CLEANUP METHODS THAT DO NOT DISPERSE DUST
INTO AIR. AVOID BREATHING DUST. TAKE UP MATERIAL & SEAL TIGHTLY FOR PROPER
DISPOSAL.
Neutralizing Agent: NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
Waste Disposal Methods: DISPOSE OF I/A/W FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL REGULATIONS
(FP N).
==============================================================================
HANDLING AND STORAGE
==============================================================================
KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT & WATER & STRONG OXIDIZING AGENTS. KEEP CNTNRS
CLOSED. STORE IN COOL, DRY PLACE W/ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
==============================================================================
EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
==============================================================================
Respiratory Protection: USE NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED AIR-PURIFYING RESPIRATOR WHEN
NECESSARY.
Ventilation: USE EXPLOSION-PROOF VENTILATION AS REQUIRED. USE ONLY
W/VENTILATION TO KEEP LEVELS BELOW EXPOSURE GUIDELINES.
Protective Gloves: IMPERVIOUS GLOVES.
Eye Protection: CHEMICAL WORKERS GOGGLES (FP N).
Other Equipment: WEAR IMPERVIOUS CLOTHING.
Work Hygenic Practices: WEAR IMPERVIOUS CLOTHING.
Supplemental Safety & Health: FIRE FIGHT PROC:W/HOT ZINC DUST TO FORM
HYDROGEN WHICH IS AN EXPLOSIVE GAS.
