LD50 LC50 Mixture: NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
Route Of Entry Inds - Inhalation: YES
Skin: YES
Ingestion: YES
Carcinogenicity Inds - NTP: NO
IARC: NO
OSHA: NO
Effects of Exposure: ACUTE:MASONRY CEMENT WHEN DRY IS NON-HAZARDOUS. WHEN IN
CONTACT WITH MOISTURE (SUCH AS IN EYES OR ON SKIN) OR WHEN MIXED WITH WATER
TO MAKE CONCRETE, MORTAR, OR GROUT IT BECOMES HIGHLY CAUSTIC & WILL BURN
(AS SEV AS THIRD-DEGREE) EYES/SKIN. INHAL OF DRY PORTLAND CEMENT CAN IRRIT
UPPER RESP SYS. (EFTS OF OVEREXP)
Explanation Of Carcinogenicity: NOT RELEVANT
Signs And Symptions Of Overexposure: HLTH HAZS:CHRONIC:CEMENT DUST CAN CAUSE
INFLAM OF LINING TISS OF INTERIOR OF NOSE & INFLAM OF CORNEA.
HYPERSENSITIVE INDIVIDUALS MAY DEVELOP AN ALLERGIC DERM. (CEMENT MAY CNTN
TRACE (<0.05%) AMTS OF C HROMIUM SALTS/CMPDS INCLUDING HEXAVALENT
CHROMIUM/OTHER METALS FOUND TO BE HAZ/TOX IN SOME CHEM FORMS. THESE (SUPP
DATA)
Medical Cond Aggravated By Exposure: NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
First Aid: INGESTION:CALL MD IMMEDIATELY (FP N). INHALATION:REMOVE TO FRESH

ATTENTION. SKIN:WASH EXPOSED SKIN AREAS WITH SOAP AND WATER. IF IRRITATION OR
INFLAMMATION OCCURS SEEK PROMPT MEDICAL ATTENTION.
=======================================================
Handling and Disposal
=======================================================
Spill Release Procedures: USE DRY CLEANUP METHODS THAT DO NOT DISPERSE DUST
INTO THE AIR. AVOID BREATHING THE DUST. EMERGENCY PROCEDURES ARE NOT
REQUIRED.
Neutralizing Agent: NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
Waste Disposal Methods: DISPOSAL MUST BE I/A/W FEDERAL, STATE & LOCAL
REGULATIONS (FP N). SMALL AMOUNTS OF MATERIAL CAN BE DISPOSED OF AS COMMON
WASTE OR RETURNED TO THE CONTAINER FOR LATER USE IF NOT CONTAMINATED. LARGE
VOL UMES MAY REQUIRE SPECIAL HANDLING.
Handling And Storage Precautions: PRECAUTIONS MUST BE TAKEN. A CEMENT BURN
OCCURS WITH VERY LITTLE WARNING AS LITTLE HEAT IS SENSED BY THE SKIN.
Other Precautions: NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
