Emergency overview:
Eye, skin and respiratory tract irritant. Initial wetting may peat up to the
boiling point of water. Flood with water to cool the material.
Appearance: Tan beads
Flash Point: Not available
Warning! Repeated or prolonged inhalation of crystalline silica in the
form of quartz may cause cancer.
Target Organs: Lungs, eyes, skin
Potential Health Effects
Eye: May cause eye irritation with tearing and reddening.
Skin: May cause irritation. Product will get hot when it first absorbs
water.
Ingestion: Product gets hot when it first adsorbs water, which may result
in burns to moist body tissues if contact is prolonged.
Inhalation: Exposure may cause respiratory tract irritation. Prolonged
or repeated inhalation of crystalline silica in the form of quartz may cause
cancer.
Chronic: Repeated or prolonged inhalation may cause lung injury or
cancer.
Carcinogenicity:
IARC - Silicon oxide - unclassifiable - Group 3
IARC - Inhaled crystalline silica in the form of quartz - carcinogenic -
Group 1
NTP - Quartz - Known Carcinogen
ACGIH - Aluminum oxide - Not Classifiable as a Human Carcinogen A4
ACGIH - Quartz - Suspected Human Carcinogen A2
Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. If eye irritation persists, seek medical attention. Skin: Wash with soap and copious amounts of water. If skin irritation persists, seek medical attention. Ingestion: Drink at least two eight ounce glasses of water and seek medical attention. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Notes to Physician: This material is a desiccant and generates heat as it adsorbes water. The used product can contain material of a hazardous nature, so identify any adsorbed material. Treat symptomatically and supportively.
General Information: Non-combustible. However, used material may retain material of a hazardous nature, so the adsorbed material must be identified to the firefighters. Use self-contained breathing apparatus and dust impervious protective suit is case of respirable dust or fumes. Extinguishing Media: Non-combustible. Use extinguishing media suitable to the surrounding fire.
General Information: See Section 8 for personal protection needed. Spills/Leaks: Sweep up spilled product into appropriate container for disposal. If material has been in contact with a hydrocarbon material, do not use a vacuum. Avoid creating a dust. Never use spilled product. Dispose of spilled product in accordance with all federal, state and local regulations.
Handling: Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid dust formation. Provide electrical ground connection during loading and transfer operations to avoid static discharge. Storage: Store in original container in cool, dry area.
Engineering Controls: Use mechanical ventilation or respiratory
protection to prevent inhalation of product dust.
Exposure Limits:
Chemical Name ACGIH OSHA -PEL TWA, mg/m3
mg/m3 Total Dust Respirable Fraction
Silicon oxide n/a 15 5
Aluminum oxide 10 15 5
Sodium oxide n/a n/a n/a
Magnesium oxide 10 15 n/a
Quartz 0.05 30 10
Notes:
n/a = not available
The OSHA PEL’s are determined from the percentage of quartz from
airborne samples.
Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes: Chemical safety goggles
Skin: Protective gloves
Clothing: Suitable clothing to prevent prolonged skin contact.
Respirators: Use appropriate NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory protection
where atmosphere exceeds recommended limits. Use filter with NIOSH
classification N-100, or if oil/liquid aerosols are present, P-1—(42 CFR 84).
Physical State: Solid Appearance: Tan Beads Odor: none pH: 8-11 in aqueous slurry Vapor Pressure: Not applicable Vapor Density: Not applicable Evaporation Rate: Not applicable Viscosity: Not available Boiling Point: Not available Freezing/Melting Point: Not available Autoignition Temperature: Not available Flash Point: Not available Decomposition Temperature: Not available Explosion Limits: Lower: Not available Upper: Not available Solubility in water: Not determined Specific Gravity/Density: Not determined Molecular Formula: Not available Molecular Weight: Not available
Chemical Stability: Stable Conditions to Avoid: Moisture Incompatibility with Other Materials: Hydrocarbons, other materials having high heats of adsorptions such as olefins and HCl. The product can heat up to boiling when first wetted. Flood with water to cool the material. Hazardous Decomposition of Products: No decomposition when used as directed. However adsorbed material may produce decomposition materials. Hazardous Polymerization: Will not polymerize.
