Specific Hazards Arising from the Material:  May release titanium oxide and/or nitrogen oxide fumes if involved in a fire.

Special Protective Equipment and Precautions for Firefighters:  Wear full face, self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.

 

6   ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal Precautions, Protective Equipment, and Emergency Procedures:  Wear appropriate respiratory and protective equipment specified in section 8. Isolate spill area and provide ventilation. Avoid breathing dust or fume. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Methods and Materials for Containment and Cleaning Up:  Avoid dust formation. Sweep or vacuum up spill using a vacuum equipped with a HEPA filter. Place in properly labeled closed containers.

Environmental Precautions:  Do not allow to enter drains or to be released to the environment.

 

7   HANDLING AND STORAGE

Precautions for Safe Handling:  Avoid creating dust. Provide adequate ventilation if dusts are created. Avoid breathing dust or fumes. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wash thoroughly before eating or smoking. See section 8 for information on personal protection equipment.

Conditions for Safe Storage:  Store in a cool, dry area.  Store material tightly sealed in properly labeled containers. Do not store together with oxidizers. See section 10 for more information on incompatible materials.

 

8   EXPOSURE CONTROLS AND PERSONAL PROTECTION

Exposure Limits:        OSHA/PEL:                                  ACGIH/TLV:

Titanium Nitride         No exposure limit established      No exposure limit established

Engineering Controls:  Appropriate Engineering Controls:  Whenever possible the use of local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls is the preferred method of controlling exposure to airborne dust and fume. Use good housekeeping and sanitation practices. Do not use tobacco or food in work area. Wash thoroughly before eating or smoking. An eyewash capable of sustained flushing and facilities for washing should be readily available. Do not blow dust off clothing or skin with compressed air. Clothing worn in areas of exposure to dusts should be restricted to the workplace and laundered regularly.

Individual Protection Measures, Such as Personal Protective Equipment:

   Respiratory Protection:  Use suitable respirator when dust or fumes are present.

   Eye Protection:  Safety glasses

   Skin Protection:  Impermeable gloves, protective work clothing as necessary.

11   TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

Likely Routes of Exposure:  Inhalation, skin and eyes.

Symptoms of Exposure:  May cause irritation to eyes and abraded skin. May cause respiratory irritation if inhaled.

Acute and Chronic Effects:

Titanium Compounds:  Titanium compounds are generally considered to be poorly absorbed upon ingestion and inhalation. The dusts of titanium or most titanium compounds such as titanium oxide may be placed in the nuisance category.

Nitrides:  The nitrides of the alkaline earth metals react with water to form ammonia and the oxide or hydroxide of the metal and therefore may cause irritation and/or burns to moist tissue and mucous membranes. The nitrides of boron, silicon, and the transition metals are refractory, hard, and resistant to chemical attack, and therefore tend to cause mechanical irritation only.

Acute Toxicity:  No data

Carcinogenicity:  NTP:  Not identified as carcinogenic    IARC:  Not identified as carcinogenic

To the best of our knowledge the chemical, physical and toxicological characteristics of the substance are not fully known.
