Emergency Overview: |
Hydrate is an odorless white or grayish-white powder. Contact can cause irritation to eyes, skin,respiratory system, and gastrointestinal tract. |
|
Potential Health Effects |
|
|
Eyes: |
Contact can cause severe irritation or burning of eyes, including permanent damage. |
|
Skin: |
Contact can cause irritation of skin. |
|
Ingestion: |
This product can cause severe irritation of gastrointestinal tract if swallowed. |
|
Inhalation: |
This product can cause severe irritation of the respiratory system. Long-term exposure may cause permanent damage. Hydrate is not listed by MSHA, OSHA, or IARC as a carcinogen However, this product may contain trace amounts of crystalline silica in the form of quartz or crystobalite, which has been classified by IARC as a Group I carcinogen to humans when inhaled. Inhalation of silica can also cause a chronic lung disorder, silicosis. |
|
Medical |
|
|
Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: |
Contact may aggravate disorders of the eyes, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and respiratory system. |
|
Potential |
|
|
Environmental Effects: |
This material is alkaline and if released into water or moist soil will cause an increase in pH. |
Eyes:
|
Immediately flush eyes with generous amounts of water or eye wash solution if water is unavailable. Pull back eyelid while flushing to ensure that all lime dust has been washed out. Seek medical attention promptly if the initial flushing of the eyes does not remove the irritant. Do not rub eyes. |
Skin:
|
Brush off or remove as much dry lime as possible. Wash exposed area with large amounts of water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention promptly. |
Inhalation:
|
Move victim to fresh air. Seek medical attention. If breathing has stopped, give artificial respiration. |
Ingestion:
|
Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical attention immediately. Never give anything by mouth unless instructed to do so by medical personnel. |
Fire Hazards:
|
Hydrate is not combustible or flammable. However, hydrate reacts vigorously with acids, and may release heat sufficient to ignite combustible materials in specific instances.Hydrate is not considered to be an explosion hazard, although reaction with acids or other incompatible materials may rupture containers. |
|
Hazardous Combustion Products: |
None |
Extinguishing Media:
|
Use dry chemical fire extinguisher. Do not use water or halogenated compounds, except that large amounts of water may be used to deluge small quantities of hydrate. |
|
Fire Fighting Instructions: |
Keep personnel away from and upwind of fire. Avoid skin contact or inhalation of dust. Wear full fire-fighting turn-out gear (full Bunker gear), and respiratory protection (SCBA). |
|
Spill / Leak Procedures: |
Do Not use water on bulk material spills. Use proper protective equipment. |
|
Small Spills: |
Use dry methods to collect spilled materials. Avoid generating dust. Do not clean up with compressed air. Store collected materials in dry, sealed plastic or non-aluminum metal
containers. Residue on surfaces may be water washed. |
|
Large Spills: |
Use dry methods to collect spilled materials. Evacuate area downwind of clean-up operations to minimize dust exposure. Store spilled materials in dry, sealed plastic or non-aluminum metal containers. |
|
Containment: |
Minimize dust generation and prevent bulk release to sewers or waterways. |
|
Clean-up: |
Residual amounts of material can be flushed with large amounts of water. Equipment can be washed with either a mild vinegar and water solution, or detergent and water. |
Handling:
|
Keep in tightly closed plastic or non-aluminum metal containers. Protect containers from physical damage. Avoid direct skin contact with the material. |
|
Storage:
|
Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated location. Do not store near acids or other incompatible materials. Keep away from moisture. Do not store or ship in aluminum containers |
|
Engineering Controls: |
Provide ventilation adequate to maintain PELs. |
|
Respiratory Protection: |
Use NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators if airborne concentration exceeds PELs. |
|
Skin Protection: |
Use appropriate gloves and footwear to prevent skin contact. Clothing should fully cover arms and legs. Should lime get inside clothing or gloves, remove the clothing and the lime promptly. |
|
Eye Protection: |
Use safety glasses with side shields or safety goggles. Contact lenses should not be worn when working with lime products. |
|
Other: |
Eye wash fountain/stations and emergency showers should be available. |
