containers for disposal.
Reference to other sections
For disposal see section 13.
SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling
Further processing of solid materials may result in the formation of combustible dusts. The potential for
combustible dust formation should be taken into consideration before additional processing occurs.
Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed.
For precautions see section 2.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.
Moisture sensitive.
Handle and store under inert gas.
Storage class (TRGS 510): Non Combustible Solids
Specific end use(s)
Apart from the uses mentioned in section 1 no other specific uses are stipulated
SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Exposure controls
Appropriate engineering controls
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks
and at the end of workday.
Personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection
Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such
as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).
Skin protection
Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique
(without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of
contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices.
Wash and dry hands.
Body Protection
Choose body protection in relation to its type, to the concentration and amount of dangerous
substances, and to the specific work-place., The type of protective equipment must be selected
according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.
Respiratory protection
Respiratory protection is not required. Where protection from nuisance levels of dusts are desired, use
type N95 (US) or type P1 (EN 143) dust masks. Use respirators and components tested and approved
under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH
(US) or CEN (EU).
Control of environmental exposure
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains. Discharge into the
environment must be avoided.

RTECS: Not available
Men exposed to manganese dusts showed a decrease in fertility. Chronic manganese poisoning
primarily involves the central nervous system. Early symptoms include languor, sleepiness and
weakness in the legs. A stolid mask-like appearance of the face, emotional disturbances such as
uncontrollable laughter and a spastic gait with tendency to fall in walking are findings in more
advanced cases. High incidence of pneumonia has been found in workers exposed to
the dust or fume of some manganese compounds., To the best of our knowledge, the chemical,
physical, and toxicological properties have not been thoroughly investigated.
