Section 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE

7.1 PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING

Handling:

Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not swallow. Good
housekeeping is important to prevent accumulation of dust. Avoid
generating and breathing dust. The use of compressed air for
cleaning clothing, equipment, etc, is not recommended. Handle and
open container with care. When using do not eat or drink. Wash

General Hygiene Advice:

7.2 CONDITIONS FOR SAFE STORAGE, INCLUDING ANY INCOMPATIBILITIES

Storage:

May cause an allergic skin reaction.

May cause respiratory irritation.
Respirable crystalline silica in the form of quartz or cristobalite

from occupational sources is listed by the International Agency
for Research on Cancer (IARC) and National Toxicology
Program (NTP) as a lung carcinogen. Prolonged exposure to
respirable crystalline silica has been known to cause silicosis, a
lung disease, which may be disabling. While there may be a
factor of individual susceptibility to a given exposure to
respirable silica dust, the risk of contracting silicosis and the
severity of the disease is clearly related to the amount of dust
