water. Seek medical assistance.
Medical attention
and special
treatment:
Treat symptomatically.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Hazards from combustion
products:
Flammable solid. Substance emits flammable gases when in contact with water.
Precautions for fire fighters and
special protective equipment:
Fire fighters to wear self-contained breathing apparatus and suitable protective
clothing if risk of exposure to vapour or products of combustion.
Suitable Extinguishing Media:
Dry agent (carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder).
Hazchem Code:
4[Z]
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Emergency procedures:
Shut off all possible sources of ignition. If contamination of sewers or waterways has
occurred advise local emergency services.
Methods and materials for
containment and clean up:
Wear protective equipment to prevent skin and eye contact and breathing in dust. Work
up wind or increase ventilation. Cover with damp absorbent (inert material, sand or soil).
Sweep or vacuum up, but avoid generating dust. Collect and seal in properly labelled
containers or drums for disposal.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Conditions for safe storage:
Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated place and out of direct sunlight. Store away from
sources of heat or ignition. Store away from incompatible materials described in Section
10. Keep containers closed when not in use - check regularly for spills.
Precautions for safe handling:
Avoid skin and eye contact and breathing in dust. Avoid handling which leads to dust
formation. May form flammable dust clouds in air. For precautions necessary refer to
Safety Data Sheet "Dust Explosion Hazards".

Material Safety Data Sheet
Aluminium (metal dust): 8hr TWA = 10 mg/m3
As published by the National Occupational Health and Safety Commission.
TWA - The time-weighted average airborne concentration over an eight-hour working day, for a five-day working week
over an entire working life.
These Exposure Standards are guides to be used in the control of occupational health hazards. All atmospheric
contamination should be kept to as low a level as is workable. These exposure standards should not be used as fine
dividing lines between safe and dangerous concentrations of chemicals. They are not a measure of relative toxicity.
Engineering controls:
Ensure ventilation is adequate to maintain air concentrations below Exposure Standards. Avoid generating and breathing
in dusts. Use with local exhaust ventilation or while wearing dust mask. Keep containers closed when not in use.
Personal Protective Equipment:
The selection of PPE is dependant on a detailed risk assessment. The risk assessment should consider the work
situation, the physical form of the chemical, the handling methods, and environmental factors.
Orica Personal Protection Guide No. 1, 1998: E - OVERALLS, SAFETY SHOES, SAFETY GLASSES, GLOVES, DUST
MASK.
Wear overalls, safety glasses and impervious gloves. Avoid generating and inhaling dusts. If excessive dust exists, wear
dust mask/respirator meeting the requirements of AS/NZS 1715 and AS/NZS 1716. Always wash hands before smoking,
eating, drinking or using the toilet. Wash contaminated clothing and other protective equipment before storage or re-use.
