Subchronic Effects/Carcinogenicity: None known. Not listed as carcinogenic by IARC, NTP, OSHA, ACGIH, or NIOSH
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with a directed stream of water for at least 15 minutes, forcibly holding eyelids apart to ensure
complete irrigation of all eye and lid tissue. If irritation persists get medical attention
Skin: Wash exposed areas thoroughly with soap or mild detergent and a large amount of water
Ingestion: If large amounts are ingested, give water to drink. Do not give anything orally to an unconscious person. Seek medical
attention.
Inhalation: If over-exposure occurs, remove to area free from risk of further exposure. Treat symptomatically. Seek medical attention
if irritation persists.
Note to Physician: Ingestion of large amounts may cause systemic alkalosis. no specialized procedures. Treat for clinical symptoms.

Fire-Fighting Instructions: Carbon dioxide may be generated by thermal decomposition or exposure to acids. Wear self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCBA) and full protective equipment (Bunker Gear).
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Static sparks my be generated during the blasting operation. Special consideration should be
given to work areas and applications in which flammable or combustible vapors, mists, gasses or clouds of combustible dust are either
present or may be released. See Section 8 and product Static Electricity Hazard Information Bulletin for more information.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Scoop into clean, dry containers for disposal. Wash away uncontaminated residue with water
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Store in original containers in a cool, dry area away from incompatible materials. Wear approved dust mask during use or if dusts are
generated during handling.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Respiratory Protection: ARMEX media's alone do not represent in inhalation hazard to the user. However, the use of these media's
in ARMEX Cleaning and Coating Removal Systems presents use-specific exposure potentials based on the particular system and
blasting conditions employed, and the characteristics of the coating being removed.
Abrasive Blasting: A NIOSH approved respirator with a dust filter may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne
concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits for general exposure to ARMEX dusts above the established exposure
guideline (see below), and for outdoor blasting hazardous coatings. Whenever possible, use appropriate engineering controls and/or
containment measures during abrasive blasting to minimize exposure to airborne dusts.
Soluble Media Injector/Power Washing: Respiratory protection is not normally required since the media is solubilized and dusts are
not typically generated during this process. Conditions where respiratory protection would be required include worker exposure to
excessive mists, work involving the removal of hazardous or potentially hazardous coatings, or when working in a confined space or
area with limited ventilation. When it is determined that respiratory protection is required for certain operations, use an approved air-
purifying or air-supplied respirator as appropriate.
Exposure Guideline: For Particles Not Otherwise Classified (PNOC)-TLV-TWA of 110mg/m3 as a nuisance dust (ACGIH).
Protective Gloves: General purpose for handling dry product or heavy gauge when dry blasting. Impervious (preferably heavy
rubber) when wet blasting.
Eye Protection: Wear safety goggles or face shield during abrasive blasting operations
Other Protective Clothing or Equipment: Full cover clothing is sufficient for general handling. Aprons or impervious cover for
blasting operations.
Protective work/hygienic Practices: No special requirements with respect to chemical exposure other than those noted above.
However, when used in blasting, workers must adhere to good operating procedures designed to prevent physical contact with
pressurized streams of ARMEX庐 Blast Media and surface coatings being removed. See operating instructions for blasting equipment.
To minimize static electricity hazards, properly ground the equipment and work piece, use a conductive nozzle, and wet blast
whenever possible. Conduct the blasting operation in non-hazardous areas if possible. See Static Electricity Hazard Information
Bulletin.
9. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Appearance: White crystalline powder
Odor: None
Physical State: Solid
pH As is: Not applicable
Vapor Density: Not applicable
Boiling Point: Not applicable
Freezing/Melting Point: Not applicable
Solubility in Water: 8.6 g/100 ml @68掳F
Density (g/cc): Approximately 1.0
% Volatile: Not applicable
Volatile Organic Compounds: None
10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
Chemical Stability: Stable
Conditions to Avoid: Contact with acids. Temperatures above 228掳F
Incompatibility with other materials: Reacts with acids to release carbon dioxide. May also yield free caustic in presence of lime
dust (CaO) and moisture
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Exposure to temperatures in excess of 228掳F or incompatible materials (acids) may cause high
levels of carbon dioxide gas to be generated. This presents a danger in confined spaces. Thermal decomposition brought on by
exposure to temperatures in excess of 1000掳F will yield sodium oxide, a severe skin, eye inhalation irritant.
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur
11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Eye Effects: Sodium bicarbonate, the principal constituent in ARMEX庐 Blast Media, was classified as practically non-irritating and
minimally irritating to the washed and unwashed eye, respectively, when tested in accordance with 40 CFR Part 792. The maximum
Mean Total Score (MMTS) for washed eyes was 2.0. The MMTS for unwashed eyes was 8.3.
Skin Effects: ARMEX庐 Blast Media was not primary skin irritant when tested in accordance with 40 CFR 798.4470. This primary
dermal irritation index (PDII) was 0.3 which indicated a minimal skin irritation potential.
Acute Oral Effects: ARMEX庐 Blast Media was non-toxic when tested in accordance with 40 CFR 798.1175. The LD50 (oral-rat)
was 8.0 g.Kg.
Inhalation Effects: ARMEX庐 Blast Media was non-toxic and exhibited no observed adverse effects when tested in accordance with
40 CFR 798.1150. The LC50 was determined to be greater than 4.94 mg/L in rats over a 4 1/2 hour exposure period.
12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Aquatic Toxicity: Sodium bicarbonate, the principal constituent in ARMEX庐 Blast media, is classified as practically non-toxic to the
following environmental organisms.
Daphinids: 48 hour EC50=4100 mg/1; NOEC=3100 mg/l
Bluegill: 96 hour LC50=7100 mg/1; NOEC-5200 mg/l
Rainbow Trout: 96 hour LC50=7700 mg/l; NOEC=2300 mg/l
Persistence: This material is not expected to persist in the environment
Bioaccumulation: This material is not expected to bioaccumulate in the environment
13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Bury in secured landfill in accordance with all local, state and federal environmental regulations. State and local regulations may
differ from federal. Be sure to consult with appropriate agencies for specific rules. Empty containers maybe incinerated or discarded
as general trash.
Because of its non-hazardous nature, you may be able to sewer dilute waste ARMEX庐 Blast Media from blasting operations. Coatings
removed during blasting may need to be contained, collected and disposed of separately. You will still be required to provide proof to
the POTW or your local authorities that the waste material is non-hazardous, and obtain the appropriate NPDES discharge permits (if
discharging directly into a storm sewer or waterway).
