CHEMICAL, WATER FOG
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURE: USE SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS WITH FULL
FACE MASK IN A POSITIVE PRESSURE MODE. TREAT AS A
VOLATILE LIQUID FIRE. WATER SPRAY MAY BE INEFFECTIVE. IF
WATER SPRAY IS USED, FOG NOZZLES ARE PREFERABLE. WATER
MAY BE USED TO COOL SEALED CONTAINERS TO PREVENT
PRESSURE BUILD UP AND POSSIBLE EXPLOSION OR AUTO-
IGNITION WHEN EXPOSED TO THE HEAT OF FIRE.
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: APPROVED SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS & FULL
BUNKER GEAR SHOULD BE WORN.
UNUSUAL FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARDS: CLOSED CONTAINERS MAY EXPLODE WHEN EXPOSED TO
EXTREME HEAT. ISOLATE FROM HEAT, SPARKS AND OPEN FLAME.
VAPORS MAY ACCUMULATE AND TRAVEL TO IGNITION SOURCES
DISTANT FROM HANDLING SITE.
SECTION V 鈥? REACTIVITY DATA
STABILITY:
MATERIAL IS STABLE. HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION WILL NOT OCCUR.
CHEMICAL INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID):
HYDROFLUORIC ACID
CONDITIONS TO AVOID:
NONE IN DESIGNED USE. AVOID CONTACT WITH HYDROFLUORIC ACID.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS:
REACTS WITH HYDROFLUORIC ACID TO FORM TOXIC SILICON TETRAFLUORIDE GAS.
SECTION VI 鈥? HEALTH HAZARD DATA
PART A. SUMMARY/RISKS
THIS PERLITE PRODUCT CONTAINS A SMALL QUANTITY OF CRYSTALLINE SILICA QUARTZ (LESS THAN
0.4% AND AVERAGING 0.21% AND IN THE PRODUCT DUST [<45 MICRONS], THE CONTENT IS BELOW XRD
DETECTION LIMIT OF 0.07%. SEE SECTION II). OSHA CONSIDERS PERLITE TO BE A NUISANCE DUST AND
CONCLUDES PERLITE IS NONTOXIC WHEN AIRBORNE. TOTAL PARTICULATE CONCENTRATIONS ARE
MAINTAINED AT LEVELS OF 15 mg/m3 OR BELOW AND WHEN ITS QUARTZ CONTENT IS LIMITED TO A
LEVEL LESS THAN 1% QUARTZ AND HAS ESTABLISHED A 5mg/m3 TWA PEL FOR THE RESPIRABLE
FRACTION OF PERLITE DUST. OSHA FURTHER CONCLUDES THAT THESE LIMITS PROTECT WORKERS
FROM SIGNIFICANT RISK OF EYE, SKIN AND OTHER FORMS OF PHYSICAL IRRITATION.
CRYSTALLINE SILICA HAS BEEN CLASSIFIED AS A PROBABLE HUMAN CARCINOGEN (GROUP 2A) BY IARC,
A UNIT OF THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION. IARC DETERMINED THERE IS SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE
FOR CARCINOGENICITY OF CRYSTALLINE SILICA TO EXPERIMENTAL ANIMALS, AND THAT THERE IS
LIMITED EVIDENCE OF CARCINOGENICITY OF CRYSTALLINE SILICA TO HUMANS.
DURING 1992, THE NTP, IN ITS 鈥淪IXTH ANNUAL REPORT ON CARCINOGENS, IDENTIFIED RESPIRABLE
CRYSTALLINE SILICA AS A SUBSTANCE THAT IS ANTICIPATED TO BE A HUMAN CARCINOGEN.
PERLITE HAS NOT BEEN LISTED AS A CARCINOGEN BY THE NATIONAL TOXICOLOGY PROGRAM OR
OSHA.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS WHICH MAY BE AGGRAVATED:
3
PREEXISTING UPPER RESPIRATORY AND LUNG DISEASE (SUCH AS BRONCHITIS, EMPHYSEMA, ASTHMA,
OR OTHERS).
TARGET ORGANS(S);
LUNGS
PRIMARY ENTRY ROUTE(S):
INHALATION
ACUTE HEALTH EFFECT:
TRANSITORY UPPER RESPIRATORY IRRITANT
CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS:
INHALATION OF HIGH LEVELS OF ANY NUISANCE DUST OVER LONG PERIODS OF TIME MAY AFFECT
LUNG CAPACITY.
PART B. SIGN/SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE
INHALATION:
COUGHING, IRRITATION OF NOSE AND THROAT. CONGESTION MAY OCCUR UPON OVEREXPOSURE
SKIN CONTACT:
N/A
INGESTION:
GENERALLY REGARDED AS SAFE BY THE FDA
EYES:
TEMPORARY IRRITATION AND/OR INFLAMMATION
PART C. FIRST AID/EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
INHALATIONS:
REMOVE FROMDUSTY AREA. DRINK WATER TO CLEAR THROAT. BLOW NOSE TO EVACUATE DUST.
SKIN CONTACT:
N/A
EYES:
DO NOT RUB EYES. FLUSH EYES WITH COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF WATER TO REMOVE ANY DUST
PARTICLES. CONSULT A PHYSICIAN IF IRRITATION PERSISTS.
SKIN ABSORPTION:
N/A
INGESTION:
N/A
SECTION VII 鈥? PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE
STORAGE SEGREGATION HAZARD CLASSES:
N/A
***ALWAYS SEGREGATE MATERIAL BY MAJOR HAZARD CALSS***

NUISANCE DUST OR DUST CONTAINING SILICA.
VENTILATION:
USE ADEQUATE VENTILATION AND/OR DUST COLLECTION SYSTEMS TO KEEP DUST LEVELS BELOW PEL.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR REPAIR/MAINTENANCE OF CONTAMINATED EQUIPMENT:
INSURE PROPER RESPIRATORY PROTECTION.
