Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:EXPOSURE TO METAL OR OXIDE DUST SHOULD
    BE A LOW HEALTH RISK BY INHALATION AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS A
    NUISANCE DUST. EXPOSURE TO MAGNESIUM OXIDE FUMES CAN RESULT IN
    METAL FUME FEVER. EYE CONTACT MAY CA USE BURNS AND CORNEAL
    ABRASIONS. PARTICLES INBEDDED IN THE SKIN MAY CAUSE SLOW HEALING
    LESIONS.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:THIS COMPOUND CONTAINS NO INGREDIENTS AT
    CONCENTRATIONS OF 0.1% OR GREATER THAT ARE CARCINOGENS OR SUSPECT
    CARCINOGENS.
Effects of Overexposure:FEVER, CHILLS, NAUSEA, VOMITING, MUSCULAR PAIN,
    EYE BURNS, CORNEAL ABRASIONS, LESIONS IN THE SKIN.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
*  First Aid Measures  *
    OPEN. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN: REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING.
    WASH WITH SOAP AND WATER. IF IRRITATION PERSIST, GET MEDICAL
    ATTENTION. INH ALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. RESTORE BREATHING. GET
    MEDICAL ATTENTION. INGESTION: IF CONSCIOUS, INDUCE VOMITING. GET
    MEDICAL ATTENTION. NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH IF UNCONSCIOUS.
*  Fire Fighting Measures  *
Flash Point:FLAMMABLE SOLID
Lower Limits:NOT GIVEN

Extinguishing Media:SMOTHER WITH DRY GRAPHITE, TALC, DRY SAND, G-1
    POWDER, PURPLE K. DO NOT USE WATER. DO NOT USE FOAM, HALOGENATED
    AGENT.
Fire Fighting Procedures:DO NOT USE FOAM, CARBON TETRACHLORIDE OR
    CARBON DIOXIDE. MANUAL APPLICATION OF WATER SHOULD BE CONDUCTED
    WITH CARE TO PREVENT CONTACT WITH BURNING OR MOLTEN MG.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:PROTECT EYES AND SKIN AGAINST FLYING
    PARTICLES. AVOID DIRECT VIEWING OF MAGNESIUM FIRES AS EYE INJURY
    MAY RESULT. WEAR NIOSH APPROVED SCBA AND PROTECTIVE GEAR.
*  Accidental Release Measures  *
Spill Release Procedures:RECOVER FOR USE IF NOT CONTAMINATED. DO NOT
    USE WATER TO CLEAN UP SPILLS. USE APPROPRIATE SAFETY EQUIPMENT. USE
    NON- SPARKING TOOLS. NO SMOKING OR OPEN FLAMES. AVOID DUSTING. WET
    OR CONTAMINATED MATER IAL SHOULD BE PLACED IN VENTED CONTAINERS.
Neutralizing Agent:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
*Handling and Storage  *
Handling and Storage Precautions:STORE AT ROOM TEMPERATURE IN A DRY
    PLACE AWAY FROM OTHER COMBUSTIBLES N A METAL CABINET. AVOID DIRECT
    VIEWING OF MAGNESIUM FIRES TO AVOID EYE INJURY.
Other Precautions:WET, MOIST OR HIGH HUMIDITY STORAGE CONDITIONS WILL
    LEAD TO CORROSION OF THE PRODUCT. CONSTANT CLEAN-UP AND GOOD
    HOUSEKEEPING RECOMMENDED.
