HAZARD
IDENTIFICATION
==============================================================================
Route Of Entry Inds - Inhalation: N/P Skin: N/P Ingestion: N/P
Carcinogenicity Inds - NTP: N/P IARC: N/P OSHA: N/P
Health Hazards Acute And Chronic: SOLID MATERIAL WILL CAUSE SKIN AND EYE BURNS
SINCE IT REACTS WITH MOISTURE TO FORM CAUSTIC. SIMILARLY, THE FUMES FROM
BURNING CALCIUMARE HIGHLY IRRITATING TO SKIN, EYES, AND MUCOUS MEMBRANES.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity: N/P
Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: SOLID MATERIAL WILL CAUSE SKIN AND EYE
BURNS SINCE IT REACTS WITH MOISTURE TO FORM CAUSTIC. SIMILARLY, THE FUMES FROM
BURNING CALCIUM ARE HIGHLY IRRITATING TO SKIN, EYES AND MUCOUS MEMBRANES.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure: N/P
==============================================================================
FIRST AID
==============================================================================
SKIN: WIPE EXCESS METAL FROM SKIN. WASH WITH SOAP AND WATER. EYES: FLUSH
THOROUGHLY WITH WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES, LIFTING UPPER AND LOWER EYELIDS
OCCASIONALLY. GET PROMPT MEDICAL ATTENTION. INGESTION: SPECIFIC DATA IS NOT
AVAILABLE. C ALL PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.
==============================================================================
FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
==============================================================================
Flash Point Text: NON-FLAMMABLE
Auto Ignition Temperature Text:
Lower Limits: N/A Upper Limits: N/A
Extinguishing Media: USE DRY GRAPHITE,SODA ASH,POWDERED SODIUM CHLORIDE,AND G-I
POWDER.
Fire Fighting Procedures: DO NOT USE WATER OR HALOGENATED HYDROCARBONS SUCH AS
CARBON TETRACHLORIDE. CARBON DIOXIDE AND DRY CHEMICALS ARE INEFFECTIVE. WEAR A
SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS; WEAR GOGGLES. USE:SPECIAL MIXTURES OF DRY
CHEMICAL OR LIME IS ONLY EXTIN GUISHING AGENTTO BE USED.
Unusal Fire/Explosion Hazard: CALCIUM REACTS WITH WATER TO FORM THE HYDROXIDE
& HYDROGEN. MIXED WITH AIR, THE LIBERATED HYDROGEN MAY PRESENT AN EXPLOSION
HAZARD. EXPLOSION OR VIOLENT REACTION MAY TAKE PLACE IF CARE IS NOT ECERCISED IN
SELECTING EXTINGUISHANTS APPLIED TO A CALCIUM FIR.
==============================================================================
RELEASE MEASURES
==============================================================================
Spill Release Procedures: WEAR PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND CLOTHING. COLLECT
SPILLED MATERIAL FOR RECLAMATION OR DISPOSAL IN SEALED CONTAINERS. AVOID
CONTACT WITH WATER. AVOID INHALATION OF DUST.
Neutralizing Agent: N/P
Waste Disposal Methods: DISCHARGE, TREATMENT, OR DISPOSAL MAY BE SUBJECT TO
FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL LAWS. THESE DISPOSAL GUIDE LINES ARE INTENDED FOR
CATALOG-SIZE QUANTITIES ONLY. RECYCLE OR DISPOSE OF IN AN APPROVED INCINERATOR
OR CONTRACT WITH A LICENSED CHEMICA L WASTE DISPOSAL SERVICE.
==============================================================================
HANDLING AND STORAGE
==============================================================================
STORE IN A COOL, DRY PLACE. NO SMOKING OR OPEN FLAMES WHEN OPENING CONTAINER.
WASH THOROUGHLY AFTER HANDLING. KEEP CONTAINER CLOSED WHEN NOT IN USE.
==============================================================================
EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
==============================================================================
Respiratory Protection: NORMALLY NONE NEEDED. A NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED DUST FILTER
MASK IF NEEDED.
Ventilation: LOCAL/MECHANICAL:RECOMMENDED
Protective Gloves: RUBBER.
Eye Protection: CHEMICAL SAFETY GLASSES.
Other Equipment: SAFETY GLASSES, SMOCK, APRON, EYE WASH STATION AND A FIRE
EXTINGUISHER.
Work Hygenic Practices: SAFETY GLASSES, SMOCK, APRON, EYE WASH STATION AND A
FIRE EXTINGUISHER.
Supplemental Safety & Health: WARD'S P/N: 37W0995. UNUSUAL FIRE AND
EXPLOSION HAZARD: FINELY DIVIDED CALCIUM IS CONSIDERED PYROPHORIC AND WILL
CAUSE AN EXPLOSION WHEN AN IGNITION SOURCE IS APPLIED. MODERATE EXPLOSION
HAZARD IN INTIMATE CONTACT WITH VERY POWERFUL OXIDIZI NG AGENTS.
