Material Safety Data Sheet <br />HYDRATED LIME <br />0 <br />Rev. Date:5/l /2008 <br />ECTION'5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES <br />re Hazards: Hydrate is not combustible or flammable. However, hydrate reacts vigorously with acids, <br />and may release heat sufficient to ignite combustible materials in specific instances. <br />Hydrate is not considered to be an explosion hazard, although reaction with acids or other <br />incompatible materials may rupture containers. <br />ombustion Products: None <br />xtinguishing Media: Use dry chemical fire extinguisher. Do not use water or halogenated compounds, except <br />that large amounts of water may be used to deluge small quantities of hydrate. <br />ire <br />ighting Instructions: Keep personnel away from and upwind of fire. Avoid skin contact or inhalation of dust. Wear <br />full fire-fighting turn-out gear (full Bunker gear), and respiratory protection (SCBA). <br />CCIDENTAL RELEASE, MEASURES <br />SECTION :76,A <br />Spill / Leak Procedures: Do Not use water on bulk material spills. Use proper protective equipment. <br />Small Spills: Use dry methods to collect spilled materials. Avoid generating dust. Do not clean up with <br />compressed air. Store collected materials in dry, sealed plastic or non-aluminum metal <br />containers. Residue on surfaces may be water washed. <br />Large Spills: Use dry methods to collect spilled materials. Evacuate area downwind of clean-up <br />operations to minimize dust exposure. Store spilled materials in dry, sealed plastic or <br />non-aluminum metal containers. <br />Containment: Minimize dust generation and prevent bulk release to sewers or waterways. <br />Clean-up: Residual amounts of material can be flushed with large amounts of water. Equipment can <br />be washed with either a mild vinegar and water solution, or detergent and water. <br />SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE <br />Handling: Keep in tightly closed plastic or non-aluminum metal containers. Protect containers from <br />physical damage. Avoid direct skin contact with the material. <br />Storage: Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated location. Do not store near acids or other <br />incompatible materials. Keep away from moisture. Do not store or ship in aluminum <br />containers. <br /> <br />visit <br />www.chemicallime.com Chemical Lime <br />for latest MSDS versions <br />3of6
