5.1 Suitable extinguishing media:
5.2 Specific hazards:
5.3 Special protective equipment:
5.4 Further information:
Dry extinguishing media, foam, water, CO2, sand or fog.
Carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and hydrocarbons
during incomplete combustion. The substances mentioned can be
releases at highly elevated temperatures and in case of fire.
Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus.
Fine dust dispersed in air may ignite. Risk of ignition followed by flame
propagation or secondary explosions shall be prevented by avoiding
accumulation of dust.
Dispose of fire debris and contaminated extinguishing water in
accordance with official regulations.
6. Accidental Release Measures
6.1 Personal precautions:
6.2 Environmental precautions:
6.3 Methods for cleaning up:
Use personal protective equipment/clothing (see Section 8). Avoid eye
contact and dust formation and remove all sources of ignition. Sweep up
to prevent slipping hazard.
Prevent entry into drainage systems, or surface water.
Sweep/shovel into suitable container for disposal.
Avoid raising dust and ensure adequate ventilation.
7.1 Handling:
7.2 Storage:
7.3 Precautions:
7.4 Specific end use(s):
Handle in a well ventilated area. Install local exhaust at 3D printers area is
recommended when many printers are operated at once. Avoid contact with
heated or molten product. Use personal protective equipment (see Section 8).
Avoid dust formation and electrostatic charge. Keep away from fire ignition
sources.
Protect from water, moisture and direct sunlight. Store material in dry rooms and
keep material in closed packaging/container with desiccant when not in use.
Store at ambient temperatures. Avoid all sources of ignition.
No special precautions required.
Primarily used for 3D printing.
8. Exposure controls / personal protection
8.1 Occupational exposure limits:
8.2 Exposure controls:
8.3 Personal protective equipment
8.3.1 Hand protection:
8.3.2 Eye protection:
8.3.3 Skin and body protection:
Given suitable ventilation it can be that the threshold limits will not
be reached.
Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is
formed. Avoid electrostatic charge by use of grounding cables.
Wear heat protection gloves, preferably cotton or leather, when
handling hot molten product.
Wear protective glasses, preferable with side-shields.
Wear (protective) clothing to avoid direct exposure of skin to hot
molten product when handling.
