This product may contain crystalline silica ( < 0.1 %) , considered a nuisance dust. Inhalation over long periods of high amounts of any nuisance dust may overload lungs making the lungs more vulnerable to respiratory disease.
Medical Conditions Which May Be Aggravated: Pre-existing upper respiratory and lung disease.
Target Organ(s): Lungs
Primary Entry Route(s): Inhalation
Acute Health Effect: Transitory upper respiratory irritant.
Chronic Health Effects: See Summary.
B. Health Hazards Signs/Symptoms of Overexposure
Inhalation: Coughing, irritation of nose and throat; Congestion may occur upon over exposure.
Skin Contact: N/A Skin Absorption: N/A
Ingestion: Not Hazardous Eyes: Temporary irritation
C. Health Hazards First Aid Emergency Procedures
Inhalation: Remove from dusty work area; drink water to clear throat; blow nose to evacuate dust.
Skin Contact: N/A Eyes: Flush eyes with water.
Skin Absorption: N/A Ingestion: N/A
VI. Reactivity Data
Stability: Material is stable. Hazardous polymerization will not occur.
Chemical Incompatibilities: Hydrofluoric Acid
Conditions To Avoid: Avoid contact with Hydrofluoric Acid
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Reacts with Hydrofluoric Acid forming toxic Silicon Tetrafluoride gas.
VII. Spill or Leak Procedures
Procedures for spill/leak: Vacuum clean or sweep; avoid dusting.
Waste Management: Not considered a hazardous waste by RCRA (40 CFR Part 261)
VIII. Special Protection Information
Goggles: Normally required. May use safety eye wear to protect from dust. Gloves: As Above
