Product Name & Other Names: Calcium sulfate or Calcium sulphate.
CAS #: 7778-18-9 Anhydrous, 10034-76-1 Hemihydrate, 10101-41-4 Dihydrate.
EINECS EC number: 231-900-3
Section 4: First Aid Measures
Always seek medical advice after the first aid treatment.
Skin: Wash exposed area with soap and water.
Eyes: Wash eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting lids occasionally. Seek Medical Aid.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
Ingestion: If swallowed, induce vomiting immediately after giving two glasses of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Section 5: Fire and Explosion Data
Flammability of the Product: Non-flammable.
Products of Combustion: Oxides of sulfur and calcium.
Fire Hazards in Presence of Various Substances: Not applicable.
Fire Fighting Media and Instructions: Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide.
Extinguishing Media Not recommended: None specified.
Special Remarks on Fire Hazards: Calcium sulphate hemihydrate or anhydrous mixed with phosphorus will ignite at high temperatures. When primed at high temperature with potassium nitrate-calcium silicide mixture, calcium sulfate mixed with excess red phosphorus will burn.
When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of oxides of sulfur and calcium.
Special Remarks on Explosion Hazards Many metal oxo-compounds (nitrates, oxides, and particularly sulfates) and sulfides are reduced violently or explosively (undergo a thermite reaction) on heating an intimate mixture with aluminum powder to a suitably high temperature to initiate the reaction. A violent or explosive reaction can occur upon heating when calcium sulfate is mixed with aluminum powder. Containers may explode when heated.
Special Information: In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full face piece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode. At high temperatures under fire conditions, it may produce toxic or irritating fumes. Fire-extinguishing work is done from the windward and the suitable fire-extinguishing method according to the surrounding situation is used. Uninvolved persons should evacuate to a safe place.
Section 6: Accidental Release Measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment, and emergency procedures: Ventilate area of leak or spill. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.). Restrict unprotected personnel from the area. Prevent any contact with hot surfaces. Do not approach facing the wind. Do not touch the spilled material.
Environmental precautions: Do not let the product enter drains, soil, or water sources.
Methods and materials used for containment cleanup procedures and Storage: Contain spilled material. Cover with an inert, non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g., sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite). Vacuum or sweep-up and remove to an approved disposal container. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and allow to evacuate as per law. Avoid contact with moisture.
Section 7: Handling and Storage
Precautions for safe handling: Apply according to good manufacturing and industrial hygiene practices. Ensure proper ventilation. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not drink, eat, or smoke while handling. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Minimize dust generation. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.). Prevent any contact with hot surfaces.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in cool, dry, and ventilated area away from heat sources and protected from sunlight in tightly closed original container. Keep air contact to a minimum. Store protected from heat, sparks and ignition sources and incompatible materials. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of dust/mist/vapor. Do not store with incompatible materials like strong oxidizing agents and acids. Hygroscopic. Avoid moisture.
Section 8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Engineering Controls: Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to keep airborne levels below recommended exposure limits.
Exposure Limits:
TWA: 15 (mg/m3) from OSHA (PEL) [United States] Inhalation Total.
TWA: 5 (mg/m3) from OSHA (PEL) [United States] Inhalation Respirable.
TWA: 10 (mg/m3) from ACGIH (TLV) [United States]
TWA: 10 (mg/m3) [United Kingdom (UK)] Inhalation Total.
TWA: 4 (mg/m3) [United Kingdom (UK)] Inhalation Respirable.3
Consult local authorities for acceptable exposure limits.
Ventilation System: A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator may be worn. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator.
Skin Protection: Wear protective gloves and clean body-covering clothing.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles and/or full-face shield where dusting or splashing of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.
Other Control Measures: Maintain good housekeeping 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. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands after handling.
