1. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as safety goggles, gloves, and a lab coat or protective clothing when working with magnesium oxide. 2. Ensure that the work area is well-ventilated to prevent the accumulation of dust or fumes. Use a fume hood if necessary. 3. Avoid inhaling or ingesting magnesium oxide. If working with powdered form, handle it carefully to minimize the generation of dust. Use a dust mask if needed. 4. Keep magnesium oxide away from open flames or sources of ignition, as it can react vigorously with fire. 5. Store magnesium oxide in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances such as acids or oxidizers. 6. Avoid contact with skin or eyes. In case of accidental contact, immediately rinse the affected area with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation persists. 7. Do not eat, drink, or smoke while working with magnesium oxide to prevent accidental ingestion. 8. Follow proper disposal procedures for magnesium oxide waste. Consult local regulations for guidance on disposal methods. 9. Familiarize yourself with the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for magnesium oxide to understand its hazards, handling, and emergency procedures. 10. If working with large quantities or in an industrial setting, it is recommended to have a comprehensive safety plan in place and receive proper training on handling magnesium oxide.
