USES:   Boron is used as an oxygen scavenger for copper
and other metals. It is used in manufacturing alloys usually to harden other metals.
In nuclear chemistry, boron is used as a neutron absorber. In pyrotechnic chemistry,
boron is used in ignition formulations, rocket-propellant mixtures and other burn
control formulations. |
  |
HANDLING:   Avoid contact with skin and avoid ingestion.
Use dust respirator when handling. Since no exposure limit have been established
for Boron by OSHA & ACGIH, we recommend that our product should be treated as a
nuisance dust 15 mg/m3. Avoid dusting of Boron because it can spontaneously ignite in air.
See MSDS for more information. |
