A bright red powder usually shipped in drums. Used in the manufacture of storage batteries, metal protective paints and in pottery. Is toxic as a dust and precautions should be taken against contamination of other goods, particularly foodstuffs, food containers and packagaing materials.
Special precautions should be taken in handling this product. Would require reprocessing if wetted.
