USES: Atomized aluminum powders have uses in aluminothermic smelting, explosives, master alloy manufacturing, pyrotechnic and thermit compounds. It can also be used as a reducing agent in chemical processing and as plastic compound ller.
HANDLING:Aluminum powder may be ignited by static discharge and burn at extremely high temperature. Once suspended in a dust-laden air cloud, it is readily ignited and very explosive. Do not use water to clean up spills. Use non-sparking tools for cleanup. Reacts violently with halogenated hydrocarbons and with oxidizers. Reseal containers immediately after use. Store away from food and beverages. Use dust respirator when handling. OSHA PEL and ACGIH TLV-TWA have been established for Aluminum at 15-mg/m3 dust and 10 mg/m3 dust respectively. This product may be subject to SARA Section 313 reporting requirements (Al 100%). See SDS for more information.
