Emergency Overview

WARNING! CAUSES IRRITATION TO SKIN, EYES AND RESPIRATORY TRACT, HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED OR INHALED
 
 
Potential Health Effects
 
Inhalation:
Prill material does not pose a significant inhalation hazard, but in the form of dust, may cause irritation to the respiratory tract, with symptoms of coughing and shortness of breath.

Ingestion:
Low toxicity material but ingestion may cause serious irritation of the mucous membrane due to heat of hydrolysis. Large amounts can cause gastrointestinal upset, vomiting, abdominal pain.
 
Skin Contact:
Solid may cause mild irritation on dry skin: strong solution or solid in contact with moist may cause severe irritation, even burns.

Eye Contact:
Hazard may be either mechanical abrasion, or serious burner from heat of hydrolysis and chloride irritation
 
First Aid Measurement  

Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
 
Ingestion:
Induce vomiting immediately as directed by medical personal. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.

 
Skin Contact:
Wipe off excess material from skin then immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse.

Eye Contact:
Immediately flash eye with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.

Handling and Store:
The product is highly hygroscopic in nature and must be kept in a tightly closed container and stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Protect against physical damage. Moist calcium Chloride and concentrated solutions can corrode steel. When exposed to the atmosphere, calcium Chloride will absorb water and form a solution. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
 
Exposure and Control / Use of PPE`s  
 
Airborne Exposure Limits:
None established 

Ventilation System:
A system of local and / or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emission of the contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. 

Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):
For conditions of use where exposure to the dust mist is apparent, a half –face dust / mist respiratory may be worn. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator.
Warning: Air purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen deficient atmospheres.

Skin Protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and / or full face shield where dusting or splashing of the solution is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area. For handling hot solution of calcium Chloride, a chemically resistant full safety apron is recommended in order to avoid burns.

Other Control Measures:
Maintain good house-keeping in work area. Dust deposits on floors and other surfaces may pick up moisture and cause the surfaces to become slippery and present safety hazards.
