| Auto Ignition Temperature | >200 °C |
| Lower Explosion Limit, Upper Explosion Limit, Hazchem Code | No Data Available |
ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
| General Response Procedure | Slippery when spilled.Avoid accidents, clean up immediately. Wear protective equipment to prevent skin and/or eye contamination and the inhalation of mists or aerosols. |
| Clean Up Procedures | In case of spillage, collect all the material in suitable and properly labelled container. Flush the area with water. Avoid dust formation. dispose off collected material in accordance with regulations. |

HANDLING AND STORAGE
|
Handling |
Follow general occupational hygiene such as, wash hands after use. Do not use hooks for handling bags. Multiple handling may lead to formation of fine powder which may cause dusting during usage. Use personal protective equipment while charging the material. To avoid dusting, keep minimum distance between bag and the hopper. Use proper dust collection system to avoid particle contamination in the production area. Follow safe procedures while loading and un-loading of product. |
| Storage | Store the material in a clean, dry place at below 35'C away from direct heat, sunlight and moisture. slight pH drop is possible over prolonged storage. In case of slight drop in pH, it is fairly safe to use the material as long as the pH is equal to or above 7.0. In the original sealed condition when stored as suggested the shelf life of the product is at least 2 years. Soft easily breakable agglomerates may be formed on storage. Since the material is hydroscopic in nature, use the product within a week after opening the bag. Stacking of paper bags : Non palletized - maximum 12 bags while transporting and 7 bags during storage. Palletized- 1+1 while transporting and during storage single pallet on ground or in pigeon hole. Stacking of jumbo bags (with crate) 1+1 while transporting and single pallet during storage. |
| Container | Suitable bags : Paper bag with HDPE liner / Jumbo bag |
