If breathing is difficult give medical assistance ifcough or other symptoms skin contact: Rinse/flush exposed skin gently using soap and water for 15-20 medicaladvice if discomfort or irritation eye contact: Protect unexposed eye. Rinse/flush exposed eye(s) gently using water for 15-20 contact lens(es) if able to do so during rinsing. Seek medical attention if irritation persists or ifSafety Data Sheetaccording to 29 CFR1910/1200 and GHS Rev. 3 Effective date : 3 of 7 Charcoal, Activated CarbonCreated by Global Safety Management, Inc. -Tel: 1-813-435-5161 - swallowing: Rinse mouth thoroughly. Do not induce vomiting. Have exposed individual drink sips ofwater. Seek medical attention if irritation, discomfort or vomiting important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:Irritation, Nausea,Headache, Shortness of breath.

5 ;Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed:If seeking medical attention, provide SDS document to should treat 5 : Firefighting measuresExtinguishing mediaSuitable extinguishing agents: Use appropriate fire suppression agents for adjacent combustible materialsor sources of ignition. Use water, dry chemical, chemical foam, carbon dioxide, or alcohol-resistant Safety reasons unsuitable extinguishing agents: None hazards arising from the substance or mixture:Combustion products may include carbon oxides or other toxic decomposition can lead torelease of irritating gases and for firefighters:Protective equipment: Use NIOSH-approved respiratory protection/breathing information (precautions): Move product containers away from fire or keep cool with waterspray as a protective measure, where spark-proof tools and explosion-proof dust.

6 Fine dust dispersed in air in sufficient concentrations, and in the presence of an ignition sourceis a potential dust explosion inhaling gases, fumes, dust, mist, vapor, and contactwith skin, eyes, and 6 : Accidental release measuresPersonal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:Wear protective equipment. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof that air-handlingsystems are adequate precautions:Prevent from reaching drains, sewer or waterway. Collect contaminated soil for characterization per Section not be released into and material for containment and cleaning up:Keep in suitable closed containers for protective eyeware, gloves, and clothing. Refer to obey local dispersal of dust in the air ( , clearing dust surfaces with compressedair).

7 Collect solids in powder form using vacuum with (HEPA filter). Evacuate personnel to safe to other sections:SECTION 7 : Handling and storagePrecautions for safe handling:Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Follow good hygiene procedures when handling chemicalmaterials. Refer to Section not eat, drink, smoke, or use personal products when handling chemicalsubstances. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:Store away from incompatible from freezing and physical away from food ventilation for containers. Avoid storage near extreme heat, ignition sources or open Data Sheetaccording to 29 CFR1910/1200 and GHS Rev. 3 Effective date : 4 of 7 Charcoal, Activated CarbonCreated by Global Safety Management, Inc.
