SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Wear NIOSH/MSHA approved self-contained breathing apparatus with a full face piece
operated in pressure demand or other positive pressure mode and full body protective clothing when fighting fires. Generates
heat upon addition of water with possible spattering. Water may be used to keep fire-exposed containers cool until fire is out.
Water or foam may cause frothing which can be violent and endanger the life of the fire fighter, especially if sprayed into
containers of hot, burning liquid.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Reacts with most metals to release hydrogen gas which can form explosive mixtures
with air. Flammable and explosive mixtures are unlikely except in poorly ventilated or confined areas.
V HEALTH HAZARD DATA
PRIMARY ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: Skin, eyes, inhalation.
CARCINOGEN INFORMATION: Not listed (OSHA, IARC, NTP).
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY OVEREXPOSURE: No applicable information found.
EFFECTS OF OVER EXPOSURE: Causes severe damage to eyes. Causes burns to skin. Breathing of mist or dust can damage
nasal and respiratory passages. Swallowing results in damage to mucous membranes and deep tissue; can result in death
on penetration to vital areas. Bronchitis, pulmonary edema and chemical pneumonitis may occur from inhalation of vapors or
mists.
EYE CONTACT: Liquid or concentrated vapors can cause eye irritation, severe burns and permanent damage.
SKIN CONTACT: Vapors, mists and liquid are corrosive to the skin. Vapors will irritate the skin. Liquid and mists will burn the skin.
Prolonged liquid contact will burn or destroy surrounding tissue. Exposure to large skin areas can cause potentially fatal
hypocalcaemia. Burns from this product may be delayed as long as 24 hours after initial exposure.
INHALATION: Vapors and mists are corrosive to the nose, throat, and mucous membranes. Bronchitis, pulmonary edema, and
chemical pneumonitis may occur. Irritation, coughing, chest pain, and difficulty in breathing may occur with brief exposure.
Prolonged exposure may result in more severe irritation and tissue damage.
INGESTION: Vapors, mists, and liquid are corrosive to the mouth and throat. Swallowing the liquid burns the tissues, causes
abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and collapse. Ingestion can cause death.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES:
EYE CONTACT: Irrigate eyes for 15-30 minutes with water, keeping eyelids apart and away from eyeballs during irrigation. Get
medical attention immediately, preferably an eye specialist. If a physician is not immediately available, apply 1 or 2 drops of
?br>
0.5% Pontocaine Hydrochloride solution followed by a second irrigation for 15 minutes. Do not use the solution described
for skin treatment.
Irrigate with 1% calcium gluconate in normal saline for 1 to 2 hours to prevent or lessen corneal damage.
SKIN CONTACT: Immediately place under a safety shower or wash the burned area with a water hose. Remove all contaminated
clothing while washing continuously. Keep washing with large amounts of water for 15 to 20 minutes. After washing, the
?br>
burned area should be immersed in a solution of 0.13% Zephiran Chloride. If immersion is not practical, towels should be
soaked with the above solution and used as compresses for the burned area. The compresses should be changed every 2
minutes and continue until pain is relieved, up to 4 to 6 hours. Alternatively, 2.5% calcium gluconate gel may be promptly and
continuously massaged into the burned area until the pain is relieved. Seek medical attention immediately for all burns.
INHALATION: Immediately remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration, but
NOT mouth-to-mouth.
INGESTION: Drink large amounts of water to dilute. DO NOT induce vomiting. Several glasses of milk or several ounces of milk of
magnesia may be given for their soothing effect. Seek medical attention.
?br>
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: For larger burns, if pain is not relieved by soaking in Zephiran or by calcium gluconate gel, inject sterile 5%
aqueous calcium gluconate solution subcutaneously beneath, around, and in the burned area. Initially use no more than 0.5
cc per square centimeter and do not distort appearance of skin. If pain is not completely relieved, additional treatment is
indicated. (5% calcium gluconate solution may be prepared by mixing equal parts of 10% calcium gluconate solution with
normal saline. For burns of large skin areas, (greater than 25 square inches), for ingestion and for significant inhalation
exposure, severe systemic effects may occur. Monitor and correct for hypocalcemia, cardiac arrhythmias, hypomagnesemia
and hyperkalemia. In some cases renal dialysis may be indicated. For certain burns, especially of the digits, use of intra-
arterial calcium gluconate may be indicated. Use of local anesthetics is not recommend, as effectiveness of treatment is
indicated by cessation of pain.

VI REACTIVITY DATA
STABILITY: Stable.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Contact with strong bases (alkali), can cause violent reaction generating large amounts of heat. Avoid
heat, sparks, or open flame.
INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID): Alkaline materials, metals, oxidizing materials, cyanides, sulfides, combustible
materials, organic peroxides, strong reducing agents, carbides, chlorates, nitrates, picrates, fulminates and reducing
materials.
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION OR DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen when in contact with
metal. May release sulfur dioxide, hydrogen cyanide, or hydrogen sulfide.
VII SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
SPILL, LEAK, WASTE DISPOSAL PROCEDURES: Provide adequate ventilation. Evacuate immediate area where concentrated
fumes are present. Cleanup personnel must wear proper protective equipment. Contain spilled material with dikes, etc., and
prevent runoff into ground and surface waters or into sewers.
Dilute spilled product with water to reduce fuming during cleanup work and from reaction with neutralizing substances. Spills
and leaks should be neutralized by pouring dry soda ash or lime over the affected area to absorb as much liquid as possible.
Allow powdered material to remain on spill for five to ten minutes and flush thoroughly with water. Neutralized material, both
liquid and solid, must be recovered for proper disposal.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHODS: Recovered solids or liquids may be disposed of in a permitted waste management facility.
Neutralized materials may be discharged to a sanitary sewer with approval of the receiving treatment plant. Typical pH range
of 6-10 is generally considered appropriate for discharge. Consult federal, state, and/or local authorities for approved
procedure. For additional information regarding handling and disposal of rinse-water, please review Technical Bulletin 200-
CW "Controlled Handling of Cleaning Wastewater". Empty containers must be triple rinsed before disposal in a permitted
sanitary landfill. Check local restrictions.
VIII SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: If you notice irritation or if air monitoring indicates concentrations above the TLV for hydrogen
fluoride, wear a NIOSH approved half-mask respirator with acid vapor cartridges. Exposures to phosphoric acid above its
TLV is unlikely because of its low vapor pressure. Supplied air is required for phosphoric acid exposures in excess of the
TLV. A dust/mist respirator should be worn to avoid exposure to mists generated during application or removal of this
product.
VENTILATION: Provide sufficient general and/or local exhaust ventilation to maintain exposure below the TLV.
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING: Wear acid-resistant neoprene or PVC rain suit and rubber boots with protective pants outside.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES: Rubber gloves with gauntlets.
EYE PROTECTION: Chemical splash goggles and/or full face shield. Do not wear contact lenses because they may contribute to the
severity of an eye injury.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: An eyewash and safety shower should be nearby and ready for use.
IX SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
WORK PRACTICES: Proper work practices and planning should be utilized to avoid contact with workers, passersby, and non-
masonry surfaces. Do not atomize during application. Beware of wind drift. Wind-drift hazards may be diminished by pre-
rinsing with low-pressure water before pressure washing. Divert pedestrian traffic around work areas. See the Product Data
sheet and label for specific precautions to be taken during use. Smoking, eating and drinking should be discouraged during
the use of this product. Wash hands after handling or use.
