Section 4 - Fire and Explosion Data
Flash Point: Not Applicable:
Extinguishing Media: Not Applicable
Unusual Hazards: Calcuim Nitrile solution was tested using the DOT Liquid Oxidizer Test
(UN34.4.2) and determined not to be an oxidizer. However, if dried, this material will become
an oxidizer which may provide oxygen to combustible materials. Resultant fires should be
extinguished with carbon dioxide foam.

Section 5 - Health Effects
Routes of entry for solids and liquids include eye and skin contact, ingestion and inhalation.
Routes of entry for gases include inhalation and eye contact. Skin contact may be a route of
entry for liquefied gases.
Acute Overexposure: Effects Based on test data and experience with similar products it is
believed that this is a low hazard material. Ingestion may cause gastric upset, pain, diarrhea,
lethargy. Inhalation of the vapors may result in respiratory irritation.
Chronic Overexposure Effects: There are no known chronic effects associated with this
material.
Inhalation: Irritation , sensitization and dermatitis
Ingestion; May cause Gastrointestinal distress or irritation.
Skin: Prolonged and repeated contact may cause irritation and result in sensitization and
allergic reaction.
Eyes: Vapor may cause irritation, redness and tearing. Liquid may cause sever irritation with
possible irreversible injury.
First Aid Procedures:
Skin: Wash affected areas with soap and water. Remove and launder contaminated clothing
before reuse. If irritation develops, get medical attention.
Eyes: Immediately rinse eyes with running water for 15 minutes. If irritation develops, get
medical attention.
Ingestion: If swallowed, dilute with water and immediately induce vomiting. Never give fluids
or induce vomiting if the victim is unconscious or having convulsions. Get immediate medical
attention.
Inhalation: Move to fresh air. Aid in breathing, if necessary and get immediate medical
attention.
Section 6 - Reactivity Data
Stability Data: Stable under normal conditions
Incompatibility: None known.
Hazardous Polymerization: Does not occur.
Corrosive Properties: Not corrosive
Oxidizer Properties: See section 4
Conditions or Materials to avoid: Will Decompose if dried and heated to >1000F. Avoid
contact with Acids, Ammonium Salts, activated Carbon, reducing agents and cyanides. Avoid
direct contact with other admixtures and any other material which could cause the Ph of the
product to fall below 8.0. Those conditions can result in the formation of nitrous oxides creating
a hazardous situation.

Section 7 - Personal Protection
Clothing: Gloves, coveralls, apron and boots as necessary to prevent contact.
Eyes: Chemical goggles; also wear a face shield if splashing hazard exists.
Respiration: If vapors or mist are generated, wear a NIOSH/MSHA approved if allergies to said
product exist.
Ventilation: Open all doors windows to allow for adequate air flow and circulation.
Section 8 - Spill and leak/ environmental
Spills should be contained and placed in suitable containers for disposal in a licensed facility.
Prevent product from entering drinking water supplies or streams. Due to health effects of
ingestion, large releases of nitrile containing products should be prevented from contacting
water systems.
According to EPA guidelines, spills of this product are not reportable. However, spill reporting
requirements and reportable quantities vary by region.
Waste Disposal: Incinerate or bury as a solid in a licensed facility. Do not discharge into
waterways or sewer systems without proper authority.
Container Disposal: Recommend crushing or other means to prevent unauthorized reuse.
