Graphite Powder / Nanopowder Safety Data Sheet (SDS)Safety note: Avoid generating or breathing airborne graphite dust. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes. Review the SDS before handling.
Technical Specifications
Technical note: APS is an average particle size and should not be interpreted as a full particle size distribution. Specific surface area is excluded because the product source states “SSA: not measured,” and bulk density is excluded as it is listed as “N/A”

Suggested Use Positioning
MKN-CG-400 is supplied as a fine graphite powder with relevance to the intended use, with an average particle size of 400 nm, purity of 98% and fragment morphology. The final suitability of the formulation, method of processing and operating conditions should be confirmed.
Safety, Handling and Storage
Store in a dry and well-ventilated place. Keep the container tightly closed. Do not generate dust or aerosols. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Provide adequate exhaust ventilation where dust may be created.
Wear suitable gloves and safety glasses when handling. Where a risk assessment indicates that respiratory protection is appropriate, the SDS refers to a N95 (US) or P1 (EN 143) particulate respirator.
The SDS lists graphite as a WHMIS D2B material with moderate concerns for respiratory and eye irritation and recognizes that inhalation, skin contact and eye contact may cause irritation.
Transport
The current SDS lists the material as “Not dangerous goods” under DOT, IMDG and IATA transport classifications.
Frequently Asked Questions
APS means average particle size. MKN-CG-400 is specified with an average particle size of 400 nm. This value should not be interpreted as the complete particle-size distribution.
MKN-CG-400 is listed with a 98% purity in the current product specification.
The current product specification describes MKN-CG-400 as having a fragment morphology.
Keep the container tightly closed in a dry, well-ventilated place. Avoid dust formation, avoid breathing airborne material, and avoid contact with the skin or eyes. Use suitable ventilation and appropriate personal protective equipment as specified in the SDS.
The current SDS lists graphite as not dangerous goods under DOT, IMDG and IATA. This transport classification should not be interpreted as meaning that no handling precautions are required.
