*General analysis, not supplied by the supplier
Potash feldspar contains crystalline silica which when inhaled may cause long term lung damage, therefore we recommend wearing a P3 Mask and working in a well ventilated area. Keep working areas free of dust by cleaning up with a damp sponge.
In keeping with our overall general advice, we suggest wearing full PPE when handling raw materials. This includes a mask, safety
glasses, and gloves. We also suggest working in a well ventilated area.
It is a sensible precaution for children not to work with raw materials.
