FIRST AID MEASURES
|
|
|
Inhalation
|
Remove from exposure immediately. Use a bag valve mask or
similar device to perform artificial respiration (rescue breathing) if
needed. Get medical attention.
|
|
Skin contact
|
Remove contaminated clothing, jewelry, and shoes immediately.
Wash with soap or mild detergent and large amounts of water until no
evidence of chemical remains (at least 15-20 minutes). Get medical
attention, if needed.
|
|
Eye contact
|
Wash eyes immediately with large amounts of water or normal
saline, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids, until no evidence of
chemical remains. Get medical attention immediately.
|
|
Ingestion
|
If vomiting occurs, keep head lower than hips to help prevent
aspiration. Get medical attention, if needed.
|
|
|
|
|
FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
|
|
|
Fire and explosion hazards
|
Slight fire hazard. Dust/air mixtures may ignite
Or explode.
|
|
Extinguishing media
|
Regular dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water, regular
foam
|
|
Large fires
|
Use regular foam or flood with fine water spray.
|
|
Firefighting
|
Move container from fire area if it can be done without risk.
Do not scatter spilled material with high-pressure water streams. Dike for
Later disposal. Use extinguishing agents appropriate for surrounding fire.
Avoid inhalation of material or combustion by-products. Stay upwind and
Keep out of low areas.

Water supplies and sewers. Keep unnecessary people away, isolate hazard area
And deny entry.
|
|
|
|
|
HANDLING AND STORAGE
|
|

EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION
|
|
|
Exposure limits
|
Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene Terpolymer
No occupational exposure limits established.
|
|
Ventilation
|
Provide local exhaust ventilation system. Ventilation equipment
should be explosion-resistant if explosive concentrations of material are
present. Ensure compliance with applicable exposure limits.
|
|
Eye protection
|
Wear splash resistant safety goggles. Provide an emergency
eye wash fountain and quick drench shower in the immediate work area.
|
|
Clothing
|
Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing.
|
|
Gloves
|
Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves.
|
|
Respirator
|
Under conditions of frequent use or heavy exposure, respiratory
protection may be needed. Respiratory protection is ranked in order from
minimum to maximum. Consider warning properties before use.
Any dust, mist, and fume respirator.
Any air-purifying respirator with a high-efficiency particulate filter.
Any powered, air-purifying respirator with a dust, mist, and fume filter.
Any powered, air-purifying respirator with a high-efficiency particulate
filter.
For Unknown Concentrations or Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health -
Any supplied-air respirator with full facepiece and operated in a
pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode in combination with a
separate escape supply.
Any self-contained breathing apparatus with a full facepiece.
