10. Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Not available.
Chemical stability
Material is stable under normal conditions.
Possibility of hazardous
reactions
Hazardous polymerization does not occur.
Conditions to avoid
Contact with incompatible materials. Exposure to moisture. When mixed with water this product
can become very hot. Encasing or making moulds of any body part can cause serious burns that
may require surgical removal of affected tissue and even amputation of encased body part.
Incompatible materials
Acids. Exposure to water and acids must be supervised because the reactions are vigorous and
produce large amounts of heat. Crystalline silica in contact with powerful oxidizing agents, such as
fluorine, chlorine trifluoride and oxygen difluoride, may cause fires. Crystalline silica will dissolve in
hydrofluoric acid and produce a corrosive gas, silicon tetrafluoride.
Hazardous decomposition
products
Calcium oxides. Sulfur oxides. Magnesium oxides.
11. Toxicological information
Information on likely routes of exposure
Ingestion
May cause burns to mouth, throat and stomach.
Inhalation
Inhalation of dusts may cause severe respiratory tract irritation. Prolonged and repeated exposure
to airborne respirable crystalline silica can cause silicosis and/or lung cancer.
Skin contact
Causes severe skin irritation and burning, especially in the presence of moisture.
Eye contac
t
Causes severe irritation and burning of the eyes, may cause permanent damage.
Symptoms related to the
physical, chemical and
toxicological characteristics
Skin irritation. Irritation of eyes and mucous membranes. Irritation of nose and throat. Dust may
irritate throat and respiratory system and cause coughing.
Information on toxicological effects
Acute toxicity
Contact may cause serious skin and eye damage that can be permanent; ingestion can cause
burns in mouth, esophagus and stomach.
