Ingredients listed in this section have been determined to be hazardous as defined in 29CFR 1910.1200. Materials
determined to be health hazards are listed if they comprise 1% or more of the composition. Materials identified as
carcinogens are listed if they comprise 0.1% or more of the composition. Information on proprietary materials is available in
29CFR 1910.1200(i)(1).
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Harmful if swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed throught the skin. It is anticipated to be slightly to moderately toxic if
swallowed and slightly toxic if inhaled.
3. Hazards Identification
Eye Hazards
Causes eye irritation.
Skin Hazards
May be irritating to skin.
Ingestion Hazards
It is anticipated to be slightly to moderately toxic if swallowed.
Inhalation Hazards
It is anticipated to be slightly toxic if inhaled.
Chronic/Carcinogenicity Effects
This product contains clay. IARC has classified cystalline silica (a component of clay) as a probably human
carcinogen. Prolonged contact may cause lover damage, kidney damage, and/or chronic muscle damage.
Signs And Symptoms
Repeated and prolonged inhalation of this material may cause a form of disabling lung disease (commonly known as

silicosis). Clinical signs and symptoms fo silicosis include cough, shortness of breath, wheezing and impairment of
lung function. Impairment of lung function may be progressive. In the usual case of silicosis, there is a slow
deterioration of capacity for physical effort, decreased chest expansion, and an increased susceptibility to
tuberculosis and other respiratory infections. Short term, extrememly heavy exposure to dust of this material
(particularly small sized particles) can result in acute silicosis. Individuals with acute silicosis may suffer an abrupt
onset of violent coughing, labored breathing, and weight loss; death has been known to occu within one to two years.
Conditions Aggravated By Exposure
None known.
First Aid (Pictograms)
4. First Aid Measures
Eye
In case of contact, hold eyelids apart and immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get
medical attention immediately if irritation develops and persists.
Skin
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with soap and plenty of water. Get medical attention immediately if
irritation (redness, rash, blistering) develops and persists.
Ingestion
Call a physician or a poison control center immediately. Drink 1 or 2 glasses of water and induce vomiting. Never
give anything by mouth to an unconscious victim.
Inhalation
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.
Fire Fighting (Pictograms)
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Flammability Class: Not flammable
Fire And Explosion Hazards
Thermal decomposition products include oxides of carbon, sulfur dioxides and hydrochloric acid.
Extinguishing Media
Water fog, carbon dioxide, dry chemical, or foam.
Fire Fighting Instructions
Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear. Dike to prevent contamination of
water sources.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Clean up spill immediately. Use appropriate containers to avoid environmental contamination. Prevent release to the
environment. Do not flush area with water as it can cause contamination of sewer system.
