IV. FIRE AND EXPLOSION
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Dolomitic hydrated lime dehydrates to magnesium oxide (350 0 C/ 6620 F) and
calcium oxide (5800 C / 10790 F) and steam. If these upper temperatures prevail, wear self-contained breathing
apparatus approved by NIOSH. Protect eyes from dust. The presence of Type S hydrated lime in a fire does not hinder
the use of any standard extinguishing medium.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: None.
V. HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION
EFFECTS OF OVER-EXPOSURE:
Acute: The contents include dolomitic hydrated lime which is an alkaline material. In the presence of moisture,
contact with skin and eyes will cause irritation and possible severe corrosion damage. Short term exposure and
irritation are generally without permanent effects, untreated contact and irritation can cause dermatitis and
chemical burns. Inhalation of dust may cause lung damage.
Chronic: Exposure to crystalline silica dust may cause scarring of the lungs with cough and shortness of breath,
called "Silicosis". Prolong exposure to respirable crystalline quartz may cause delayed (chronic) lung injury. Acute
or rapidly developing silicosis may occur in a short period of time in heavy exposure in certain occupations such as
sandblasters. Silicosis is a form of disabling pulmonary fibrosis, which can be progressive and may lead to death.
FIRST AID:
Eye Contact: Wash eyes immediately with running water for 15 minutes, including under eyelids. Get prompt
medical attention.
Skin Contact: Wash exposure area with large amounts of water. Remove and wash contaminated clothing.
Inhaled: Remove the individual from exposure to dust and get prompt medical attention.
Swallowed: Dilute with large amounts of water or milk and get prompt medical attention.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE:
Pulmonary function may be reduced by inhalation of respirable crystalline silica. Also lung scarring produced by
such inhalation may lead to a progressive massive fibrosis of the lung which may aggravate other pulmonary
conditions and diseases, and which increases susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis. Progressive massive
fibrosis may be accompanied by right heart enlargement, heart failure and pulmonary failure. Smoking aggravates
the effects of exposure.
VI. REACTIVITY DATA
Stability: Stable ___X____
Unstable _______
Conditions To Avoid: Handling procedures which may generate dust. Contact with nitroparaffins, maleic anhydride
or phosphorous.
Incompatibility (Materials To Avoid): Contact with powerful oxidizing agents such as fluorine, chlorine, tri-fluoride,
manganese trioxide, oxygen di-flouride, may cause fires.
Hazardous Decomposition Products (Including Combustion Products): Silica will dissolve in Hydrofluoric Acid and
produce a corrosive gas-silicon tetrafluorid
Hazardous Polymerization: May occur _______
Will not occur: _____X____

VII. SPILL, LEAK AND DISPOSAL PROCEDURES
Spill Response Procedures: Carefully pick up the solid with a minimum of dusting and collect in metal containers
with covers for disposal. Do not dry sweep.
Prepare Wastes For Disposal (Container Types, Neutralization, etc.): May be salvaged
for use or removed to a landfill dump in accordance with regulations.
VIII. SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
Ventilation and Engineering Controls: Use dustless system for handling, storage and clean up so that airborne dust
does not exceed the PEL. Provide general ventilation and local exhaust ventilation with appropriate dust collection
to meet TLV and PEL requirements for reportable free silica dust.
Respiratory Protection: NIOSH approved dust filter respirator in dusty conditions. Maintain, clean and fit
respirators in accordance with OSHA regulations.
Eye Protection (Type): Approved tight-fitting safety goggles.
Gloves: Clean, dry, rubber gloves.
Other Clothing and Equipment: Clean body-covering protective clothing, such as long-sleeved shirt with buttoned
collar, long pants extending over the tops of work shoes.
IX. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
Work Practices / Hygenic Practice:
Other Handling and Storage Requirements:
Precautionary Labeling:
Avoid creating and breathing dust.
Store materials in sealed containers in a dry place.
Product contains crystalline silica.
WARNING
Prolonged, repeated inhalation of product dust may cause delayed lung injury (silicosis).
