SECTION IV – First Aid Measures
Eyes: Immediately flush eye thoroughly with water. Continue flushing eye for at least 15 minutes, including
under lids, to remove all particles. Call physician immediately.
Skin: Wash skin with cool water and pH-neutral soap or a mild detergent. Seek medical treatment if irritation
or inflammation develops or persists. Seek immediate medical treatment in the event of burns.
Inhalation: Remove person to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. If not breathing, give
artificial respiration. Seek medical help if coughing and other symptoms do not subside. Inhalations of large
amounts of Portland cement require immediate medical attention.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. If conscious, have the victim drink plenty of water and call a physician
immediately.
SECTION V - FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA
Flammability: Noncombustible and not explosive.
Auto-ignition Temperature: Not Applicable
Flash Points: Not Applicable
SECTION VI – ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
If spilled, use dustless methods (vacuum) and place into covered container for disposal (if not contaminated
or wet). Use adequate ventilation to keep exposure to airborne contaminants below the exposure limit.
SECTION VII - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND STORAGE
Do not allow water to contact the product until time of use. DO NOT BREATHE DUST. In dusty
environments, the use of an OSHA, MSHA or NIOSH approved respirator and tight fitting goggles is
recommended.
SECTION VIII – EXPOSURE CONTROL MEASURES
Engineering Controls: Local exhaust can be used, if necessary, to control airborne dust levels.
Personal Protection: The use of barrier creams or impervious gloves, boots and clothing to protect the skin
from contact is recommended. Following work, workers should shower with soap and water. Precautions
must be observed because burns occur with little warning -- little heat is sensed.
