SECTION 4 First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
If this product comes in contact with the eyes:
r Wash out immediately with fresh running water.
r Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper
and lower lids.
Eye Contact r Seek medical attention without delay;if pain persists or recurs seek medical attention.
r Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled personnel.
r DO NOT attempt to remove particles attached to or embedded in eye.
r Lay victim down,on stretcher if available and pad BOTH eyes,make sure dressing does not press on the injured eye by placing thick pads
under dressing,above and below the eye.
' Seek urgent medical assistance,or transport to hospital.
If skin contact occurs:
r Immediately remove all contaminated clothing,including footwear.
r Flush skin and hair with running water(and soap if available).
r Seek medical attention in event of irritation.
For thermal burns:
r Decontaminate area around burn.
' Consider the use of cold packs and topical antibiotics.
For first-degree burns(affecting top layer of skin)
' Hold burned skin under cool(not cold)running water or immerse in cool water until pain subsides.
' Use compresses if running water is not available.
Skin Contact Cover with sterile non-adhesive bandage or clean cloth.
Do NOT apply butter or ointments;this may cause infection.
Give over-the counter pain relievers if pain increases or swelling,redness,fever occur.
For second-degree burns(affecting top two layers of skin)
Cool the burn by immerse in cold running water for 10-15 minutes.
r Use compresses if running water is not available.
r Do NOT apply ice as this may lower body temperature and cause further damage.
r Do NOT break blisters or apply butter or ointments;this may cause infection.
r Protect burn by cover loosely with sterile,nonstick bandage and secure in place with gauze or tape.
To prevent shock:(unless the person has a head,neck,or leg injury,or it would cause discomfort):
Continued...
Chemwatch:9258123 Page 3 of 12 Issue Date:11/01/2019
Version No:4.1 Washington Mills Duramet Print Date:02/01/2023
r Lay the person flat.
r Elevate feet about 12 inches.
' Elevate burn area above heart level,if possible.
' Cover the person with coat or blanket.
' Seek medical assistance.
For third-degree burns
Seek immediate medical or emergency assistance.
In the mean time:
Protect burn area cover loosely with sterile,nonstick bandage or,for large areas,a sheet or other material that will not leave lint in wound.
Separate burned toes and fingers with dry,sterile dressings.
Do not soak burn in water or apply ointments or butter;this may cause infection.
r To prevent shock see above.
r For an airway burn,do not place pillow under the person's head when the person is lying down.This can close the airway.
r Have a person with a facial burn sit up.
r Check pulse and breathing to monitor for shock until emergency help arrives.
r If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area.
r Lay patient down.Keep warm and rested.
Inhalation r Prostheses such as false teeth,which may block airway,should be removed,where possible,prior to initiating first aid procedures.
r Apply artificial respiration if not breathing,preferably with a demand valve resuscitator,bag-valve mask device,or pocket mask as trained.
Perform CPR if necessary.
' Transport to hospital,or doctor.
r IF SWALLOWED,REFER FOR MEDICAL ATTENTION,WHERE POSSIBLE,WITHOUT DELAY.
r For advice,contact a Poisons Information Centre or a doctor.
r Urgent hospital treatment is likely to be needed.
r In the mean time,qualified first-aid personnel should treat the patient following observation and employing supportive measures as indicated
by the patient's condition.
r If the services of a medical officer or medical doctor are readily available,the patient should be placed in his/her care and a copy of the SIDS
should be provided.Further action will be the responsibility of the medical specialist.
Ingestion ' If medical attention is not available on the worksite or surroundings send the patient to a hospital together with a copy of the SIDS.
Where medical attention is not immediately available or where the patient is more than 15 minutes from a hospital or unless instructed
otherwise:
INDUCE vomiting with fingers down the back of the throat,ONLY IF CONSCIOUS.Lean patient forward or place on left side(head-down
position,if possible)to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration.
NOTE:Wear a protective glove when inducing vomiting by mechanical means.
Most important symptoms and effects,both acute and delayed
See Section 11
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Treat symptomatically.
Copper,magnesium,aluminium,antimony,iron,manganese,nickel,zinc(and their compounds)in welding,brazing,galvanising or smelting operations all give rise to thermally
produced particulates of smaller dimension than may be produced if the metals are divided mechanically.Where insufficient ventilation or respiratory protection is available these
particulates may produce"metal fume fever"in workers from an acute or long term exposure.
r Onset occurs in 4-6 hours generally on the evening following exposure.Tolerance develops in workers but may be lost over the weekend.(Monday Morning Fever)
r Pulmonary function tests may indicate reduced lung volumes,small airway obstruction and decreased carbon monoxide diffusing capacity but these abnormalities resolve after
several months.
r Although mildly elevated urinary levels of heavy metal may occur they do not correlate with clinical effects.
' The general approach to treatment is recognition of the disease,supportive care and prevention of exposure.
' Seriously symptomatic patients should receive chest x-rays,have arterial blood gases determined and be observed for the development of tracheobronchitis and pulmonary
edema.
[Ellenhorn and Barceloux:Medical Toxicology]
For acute or short term repeated exposures to iron and its derivatives:
Always treat symptoms rather than history.
In general,however,toxic doses exceed 20 mg/kg of ingested material(as elemental iron)with lethal doses exceeding 180 mg/kg.
Control of iron stores depend on variation in absorption rather than excretion.Absorption occurs through aspiration,ingestion and burned skin.
Hepatic damage may progress to failure with hypoprothrombinaemia and hypoglycaemia.Hepatorenal syndrome may occur.
Iron intoxication may also result in decreased cardiac output and increased cardiac pooling which subsequently produces hypotension.
Serum iron should be analysed in symptomatic patients.Serum iron levels(2-4 hrs post-ingestion)greater that 100 ug/dL indicate poisoning with levels,in excess of 350 ug/dL,
being potentially serious.Emesis or lavage(for obtunded patients with no gag reflex)are the usual means of decontamination.
r Activated charcoal does not effectively bind iron.
r Catharsis(using sodium sulfate or magnesium sulfate)may only be used if the patient already has diarrhoea.
r Deferoxamine is a specific chelator of ferric(3+)iron and is currently the antidote of choice.It should be administered parenterally.[Ellenhorn and Barceloux:Medical Toxicology]
SECTION 5 Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media
Metal dust fires need to be smothered with sand,inert dry powders.
DO NOT USE WATER,CO2 or FOAM.
' Use DRY sand,graphite powder,dry sodium chloride based extinguishers,G-1 or Met L-X to smother fire.
' Confining or smothering material is preferable to applying water as chemical reaction may produce flammable and explosive hydrogen gas.
' DO NOT use halogenated fire extinguishing agents.
Special hazards arising from the substrate or mixture
Fire Incompatibility Reacts with acids producing flammable/explosive hydrogen(1-12)gas
Special protective equipment and precautions for fire-fighters

r Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard.
Fire Fighting r Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves in the event of a fire.
' Prevent,by any means available,spillage from entering drains or water courses.
' Use fire fighting procedures suitable for surrounding area.
r DO NOT disturb burning dust.Explosion may result if dust is stirred into a cloud,by providing oxygen to a large surface of hot metal.
r DO NOT use water or foam as generation of explosive hydrogen may result.
With the exception of the metals that burn in contact with air or water(for example,sodium),masses of combustible metals do not represent
unusual fire risks because they have the ability to conduct heat away from hot spots so efficiently that the heat of combustion cannot be
Fire/Explosion Hazard maintained-this means that it will require a lot of heat to ignite a mass of combustible metal.
Decomposition may produce toxic fumes of:
silicon dioxide(Si02)
metal oxides
May emit poisonous fumes.
May emit corrosive fumes.
SECTION 6 Accidental release measures
Personal precautions,protective equipment and emergency procedures
See section 8
Environmental precautions
See section 12
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
r Remove all ignition sources.
Minor Spills r Clean up all spills immediately.
r Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
r Control personal contact with the substance,by using protective equipment.
If molten:
Contain the flow using dry sand or salt flux as a dam.
r All tooling(e.g.,shovels or hand tools)and containers which come in contact with molten metal must be preheated or specially coated,rust
free and approved for such use.
Major Spills r Allow the spill to cool before remelting scrap.
Moderate hazard.
r CAUTION:Advise personnel in area.
r Alert Emergency Services and tell them location and nature of hazard.
r Control personal contact by wearing protective clothing.
Personal Protective Equipment advice is contained in Section 8 of the SIDS.
SECTION 7 Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
For molten metals:
Molten metal and water can be an explosive combination.The risk is greatest when there is sufficient molten metal to entrap or seal off water.
Water and other forms of contamination on or contained in scrap or remelt ingot are known to have caused explosions in melting operations.
While the products may have minimal surface roughness and internal voids,there remains the possibility of moisture contamination or
Safe handling entrapment.
Avoid all personal contact,including inhalation.
Wear protective clothing when risk of exposure occurs.
Use in a well-ventilated area.
r Prevent concentration in hollows and sumps.
' Store in original containers.
Other information Keep containers securely sealed.
' Store in a cool,dry area protected from environmental extremes.
Store away from incompatible materials and foodstuff containers.
Conditions for safe storage,including any incompatibilities
r Bulk bags:Reinforced bags required for dense materials.
r CARE:Packing of high density product in light weight metal or plastic packages may result in container collapse with product release
Suitable container r Heavy gauge metal packages/Heavy gauge metal drums
r Polyethylene or polypropylene container.
r Check all containers are clearly labelled and free from leaks.
The material is described as an electropositive metal.
The activity or electromotive series of metals is a listing of the metals in decreasing order of their reactivity with hydrogen-ion sources such as
water and acids.In the reaction with a hydrogen-ion source,the metal is oxidised to a metal ion,and the hydrogen ion is reduced to H2.The
ordering of the activity series can be related to the standard reduction potential of a metal cation.
For aluminas(aluminium oxide):
Incompatible with hot chlorinated rubber.
In the presence of chlorine trifluoride may react violently and ignite.
-May initiate explosive polymerisation of olefin oxides including ethylene oxide.
Storage incompatibility -Produces exothermic reaction above 200°C with halocarbons and an exothermic reaction at ambient temperatures with halocarbons in the
presence of other metals.
Titanium:
' reacts with oxidising agents,aluminium,carbon dioxide,chlorinated solvents,strong acids,oxygen,halogens
' reacts violently with cupric or lead oxide when heated
' powder mixtures with potassium perchlorate,with nickel and infusional earth ignite with very small sparks causing severe explosion
with trichloroethylene or trichlorofluoroethylene with flash or spark on heavy impact
reacts with fluorine at 150 deg C,chlorine at 300 deg C,bromine at 360 deg C and iodine at>360 deg C
when heated at red heat(700 deg C)decomposes steam to hydrogen and when heated above above 800 deg C burns vigorously in pure

Version No:4.1 Washington Mills Duramet Print Date:02/01/2023
nitrogen;burns in carbon dioxide above 550 deg C;the hot metal explodes violently on contact with water.
r WARNING:Avoid or control reaction with peroxides.All transition metal peroxides should be considered as potentially explosive.For
example transition metal complexes of alkyl hydroperoxides may decompose explosively.
' The pi-complexes formed between chromium(0),vanadium(0)and other transition metals(haloarene-metal complexes)and mono-or
poly-fluorobenzene show extreme sensitivity to heat and are explosive.
Metals and their oxides or salts may react violently with chlorine trifluoride and bromine trifluoride.
These trifluorides are hypergolic oxidisers.They ignite on contact(without external source of heat or ignition)with recognised fuels-contact
with these materials,following an ambient or slightly elevated temperature,is often violent and may produce ignition.
The state of subdivision may affect the results.
Many metals may incandesce,react violently,ignite or react explosively upon addition of concentrated nitric acid.

r Contact lenses may pose a special hazard;soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants.A written policy document,describing
the wearing of lenses or restrictions on use,should be created for each workplace or task.
Skin protection See Hand protection below
The selection of suitable gloves does not only depend on the material,but also on further marks of quality which vary from manufacturer to
manufacturer.Where the chemical is a preparation of several substances,the resistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance
and has therefore to be checked prior to the application.
The exact break through time for substances has to be obtained from the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed when
making a final choice.
Hands/feet protection Personal hygiene is a key element of effective hand care.

Respirators may be necessary when engineering and administrative controls do not adequately prevent exposures.
The decision to use respiratory protection should be based on professional judgment that takes into account toxicity information,exposure measurement data,and frequency and
likelihood of the worker's exposure-ensure users are not subject to high thermal loads which may result in heat stress or distress due to personal protective equipment(powered,
positive flow,full face apparatus may be an option).
•Published occupational exposure limits,where they exist,will assist in determining the adequacy of the selected respiratory protection.These may be government mandated or
vendor recommended.
Certified respirators will be useful for protecting workers from inhalation of particulates when properly selected and fit tested as part of a complete respiratory protection program.
Where protection from nuisance levels of dusts are desired,use type N95(US)or type P1(EN143)dust masks.Use respirators and components tested and approved under
appropriate government standards such as NIOSH(US)or CEN(EU)
Use approved positive flow mask if significant quantities of dust becomes airborne.
Try to avoid creating dust conditions.

SECTION 11 Toxicological information
Information on toxicological effects
Inhalation of dusts,generated by the material during the course of normal handling,may be damaging to the health of the individual.
There is some evidence to suggest that the material can cause respiratory irritation in some persons.The body's response to such irritation can
cause further lung damage.
In animals,instilling silicon dust in the windpipe caused only slight damage to the epithelium.
Persons with impaired respiratory function,airway diseases and conditions such as emphysema or chronic bronchitis,may incur further disability
Inhaled if excessive concentrations of particulate are inhaled.
If prior damage to the circulatory or nervous systems has occurred or if kidney damage has been sustained,proper screenings should be
conducted on individuals who may be exposed to further risk if handling and use of the material result in excessive exposures.
Effects on lungs are significantly enhanced in the presence of respirable particles.
The inhalation of small particles of metal oxide results in sudden thirst,a sweet,metallic foul taste,throat irritation,cough,dry mucous
membranes,tiredness and general unwellness.Headache,nausea and vomiting,fever or chills,restlessness,sweating,diarrhoea,excessive
urination and prostration may also occur.
Accidental ingestion of the material may be harmful;animal experiments indicate that ingestion of less than 150 gram may be fatal or may
Ingestion produce serious damage to the health of the individual.
Not normally a hazard due to the physical form of product.The material is a physical irritant to the gastro-intestinal tract
There is some evidence to suggest that this material can cause inflammation of the skin on contact in some persons.
Though considered non-harmful,slight irritation may result from contact because of the abrasive nature of the aluminium oxide particles.Thus it
may cause itching and skin reaction and inflammation.
Skin Contact Irritation and skin reactions are possible with sensitive skin
Open cuts,abraded or irritated skin should not be exposed to this material
Entry into the blood-stream,through,for example,cuts,abrasions or lesions,may produce systemic injury with harmful effects.Examine the skin
prior to the use of the material and ensure that any external damage is suitably protected.
There is some evidence to suggest that this material can cause eye irritation and damage in some persons.
Eye Contact with the eye by metal dusts may produce mechanical abrasion or foreign body penetration of the eyeball.Iron particles embedded in the
eye may cause discolouration of the cornea and iris,and effects on the pupil such as poor rection to light and accommodation.
Substance accumulation,in the human body,may occur and may cause some concern following repeated or long-term occupational exposure.
Animal testing shows long term exposure to aluminium oxides may cause lung disease and cancer,depending on the size of the particle.The
smaller the size,the greater the tendencies of causing harm.
Overexposure to the breathable dust may cause coughing,wheezing,difficulty in breathing and impaired lung function.Chronic symptoms may
include decreased vital lung capacity and chest infections.Repeated exposures in the workplace to high levels of fine-divided dusts may produce
Chronic a condition known as pneumoconiosis,which is the lodgement of any inhaled dusts in the lung,irrespective of the effect.This is particularly true
when a significant number of particles less than 0.5 microns(1/50000 inch)are present.
Chronic excessive intake of iron have been associated with damage to the liver and pancreas.People with a genetic disposition to poor control
over iron are at an increased risk.
Metallic dusts generated by the industrial process give rise to a number of potential health problems.The larger particles,above 5 micron,are
nose and throat irritants.

Asthma-like symptoms may continue for months or even years after exposure to the material ends.This may be due to a non-allergic condition
known as reactive airways dysfunction syndrome(RADS)which can occur after exposure to high levels of highly irritating compound.Main
criteria for diagnosing RAIDS include the absence of previous airways disease in a non-atopic individual,with sudden onset of persistent
asthma-like symptoms within minutes to hours of a documented exposure to the irritant.Other criteria for diagnosis of RAIDS include a reversible
SILICON airflow pattern on lung function tests,moderate to severe bronchial hyperreactivity on methacholine challenge testing,and the lack of minimal
lymphocytic inflammation,without eosinophilia.
Injection of silicon into the peritoneal cavity produced only minor local trauma and foreign body reaction.In animal testing,silicon dioxide given by
mouth did not cause clinical signs or cell changes.Silicon dioxide was largely eliminated in the faeces.
The material may be irritating to the eye,with prolonged contact causing inflammation.Repeated or prolonged exposure to irritants may produce
conjunctivitis.

SECTION 13 Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
' Containers may still present a chemical hazard/danger when empty.
' Return to supplier for reuse/recycling if possible.
Otherwise:
If container can not be cleaned sufficiently well to ensure that residuals do not remain or if the container cannot be used to store the same
product,then puncture containers,to prevent re-use,and bury at an authorised landfill.
Where possible retain label warnings and SIDS and observe all notices pertaining to the product.
Legislation addressing waste disposal requirements may differ by country,state and/or territory.Each user must refer to laws operating in their
area.In some areas,certain wastes must be tracked.
A Hierarchy of Controls seems to be common-the user should investigate:
r Reduction
Product/Packaging disposal r Reuse
r Recycling
r Disposal(if all else fails)
This material may be recycled if unused,or if it has not been contaminated so as to make it unsuitable for its intended use.
r DO NOT allow wash water from cleaning or process equipment to enter drains.
r It may be necessary to collect all wash water for treatment before disposal.
' In all cases disposal to sewer may be subject to local laws and regulations and these should be considered first.
' Where in doubt contact the responsible authority.
' Recycle wherever possible or consult manufacturer for recycling options.
' Consult State Land Waste Management Authority for disposal.
Bury residue in an authorised landfill.
Recycle containers if possible,or dispose of in an authorised landfill.

should be instituted to ensure that dusts do not accumulate on surfaces. Dry powders can build static
electricity charges when subjected to the friction of transfer and mixing operations. Provide adequate
precautions, such as electrical grounding and bonding, or inert atmospheres. Refer to NFPA 654,
Standard for the Prevention of Fire and Dust Explosions from the Manufacturing, Processing, and
Handling of Combustible Particulate Solids (2013 Edition)for safe handling.

place. Avoid wet, damp or humid conditions, temperature extremes and ignition sources.
Storage stability:
Avoid extreme heat.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
No occupational exposure limits known.
Advice on system design:
It is recommended that all dust control equipment such as local exhaust ventilation and material
transport systems involved in handling of this product contain explosion relief vents or an explosion
suppression system or an oxygen deficient environment. Ensure that dust-handling systems (such as
exhaust ducts, dust collectors, vessels, and processing equipment) are designed in a manner to
prevent the escape of dust into the work area (i.e., there is no leakage from the equipment). Use only
appropriately classified electrical equipment and powered industrial trucks.
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Wear a NIOSH-certified (or equivalent)organic vapour/particulate respirator.
Hand protection:
Chemical resistant protective gloves
Eye protection:
Safety glasses with side-shields.

J. Soda ash is produced in two principal grades: Light soda ash and Dense soda ash. These grades differ only in physical characteristics such
as bulk density and size and shape of particles,which influence flow characteristics and angle of response. Other physical properties,as well
as chemical properties and properties of solutions,are common to both grades of soda ash.
