FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA |
|
| Flash Point (o F): | N.A. | |
| Flammable Limits (vapor in air, Vol. %): | N.A. | |
| Fire Extinguishing Media: | N.A. | |
| Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: | N.A. | |
IV. |
REACTIVITY DATA |
|
| Stability: | Stable | |
| Conditions to Avoid: | In their fresh, unused, activated condition CABSORB Chabazite products are not flammable. When exposed to water, however, the anhydrous products get hot. When first wetted these products can heat to the boiling point of water. Flooding will reduce the temperature to safe limits. Minimise exposure to the activated granules or powder which can under certain conditions cause a skin rash or minor burn. | |
| Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): | N.A. | |
| Hazardous Decomposition Products: | None | |
| NFPA Hazard ratings | Health Hazard:1 Flammability Hazard:0 Reactivity:0 Special Hazard: none |
|
V. |
SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES |
|
| Environmental Hazards: | No known adverse effects. | |
| Spillage: | Sweep, scoop, or vacuum discharged material. | |
| Waste Disposal Method: | Landfill according to local, state, and federal regulations. | |
VI. |
HEALTH HAZARD DATA |
|
| Eye Contact: | May cause irritation. | |
| Skin Contact: | May cause irritation. If a rash or burn like irritation occurs wash and cool affected area,treat as a minor burn. | |
| Inhalation: | Causes Irritation. | |
| Ingestion: | No hazards known or suspected. | |
| Chronic Hazards: | No known chronic hazards. Not listed by OSHA, NTP or IARC as a carcinogen. Does not contain asbestos or fiberous zeolite minerals. Crystalline silica was not detected by X-Ray Defraction analysis, but may be present above the notification level of 0.10%. Crystalline silica is considered a hazard by inhalation. During October 1996, IARC reviewed the literature for polymorphs of crystalline silica and determined that there is suffient evidence in humans for the carcinegenity of inhaled crystalline silica in the form of quartz or cristobolite from occupational sources. |
