10. PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING AND STORAGE
Keep dry until used. Handle and store in a manner so that
airborne dust does not exceed applicable exposure limits. Use
adequate ventilation and dust collection. Use exposure control
and personal protection methods as described in Section 12.
11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
See Section 5 for Hazard Identification. No recognized unusual toxicity to plants and animals.
Conditions aggravated by exposure: Eye disease, Skin disorders and Chronic Respiratory conditions.
12. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:
Use local exhaust or general dilution ventilation to control dust
levels below applicable exposure limits. Minimize dispersal of
dust into the air.
If local or general ventilation is not adequate to control dust
levels below applicable exposure limits or when dust causes
irritation or discomfort, use MSHA/NIOSH approved respirators.
EYE PROTECTION:
Wear safety glasses with side shields or goggles to avoid contact
with the eyes. In extremely dusty environments and
unpredictable environments, wear tight-fitting unvented or
indirectly vented goggles to avoid eye irritation or injury.
Contact lenses should not be worn when handling cement or
cement containing products.
SKIN PROTECTION:
Wear impervious abrasion- and alkali-resistant gloves, boots,
long-sleeved shirt, long pants or other protective clothing to
prevent skin contact. Promptly remove clothing dusty with dry
Concrete Mix or clothing dampened with moisture mixed with
Concrete Mix, and launder before re-use. If contact occurs, wash
areas contacted by material with pH neutral soap and water.
