Ensure proper labeling and keep it out of reach of children and unauthorized personnel. 5. Spills and Cleanup: In case of spills, carefully clean up the powder using appropriate methods, such as vacuuming or wet wiping. Avoid creating dust or dispersing the powder further. Dispose of the waste according to local regulations. 6. Fire and Explosion Hazards: Zinc sulfide powder is not flammable, but it may release toxic fumes when exposed to high temperatures. Keep it away from open flames, sparks, and heat sources. 7. First Aid: In case of accidental exposure or ingestion, seek medical attention immediately. Rinse eyes or skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If inhaled, move to fresh air. Do not induce vomiting if swallowed. Remember, these instructions are not exhaustive, and it is essential to consult the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or seek professional advice for specific safety guidelines when working with Zinc sulfide powder.
