Obtain medical attention immediately for inhalation. Seek medical advice for skin, eye, and ingestion exposure.

Medical Treatment

Follow the advises given in section 4.1

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

The product is not combustible. Use a dry powder, foam or CO2 fire extinguisher to extinguish the surrounding fire. Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.

Unsuitable media

Do not use water. Avoid humidification.

Specific hazards

Calcium oxide reacts with water and generates heat. This may cause risk to flammable material.

Instructions

Avoid generation of dust.

Firefighter Protection

Use breathing apparatus.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Ensure adequate ventilation. Keep dust levels to a minimum. Keep unprotected persons away. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Avoid inhalation of dust. Avoid humidification.

Large spill

Any large spillage into watercourses must be alerted to the Environment Agency or other regulatory body.

Environmental

Contain the spillage. Keep the material dry if possible. Cover area if possible to avoid unnecessary dust hazard.

Cleanup methods

Pick up the product mechanically in a dry way. Use vacuum suction unit, or shovel into bags.

07

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wear protective equipment (refer to section 8 of this safety data sheet). Do not wear contact lenses when handling this product. It is also advisable to have individual pocket eyewash.

Storage

The substance should be stored under dry conditions. Any contact with air and moisture should be avoided. Bulk storage should be in purpose – designed silos.

Hygiene

Avoid inhalation or ingestion and contact with skin and eyes. General occupational hygiene measures are required to ensure safe handling of the substance. These measures involve good personal and housekeeping practices (i.e. regular cleaning with suitable cleaning devices), no drinking, eating and smoking at the workplace. Shower and change clothes at end of work shift. Do not wear contaminated clothing at home.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

If user operations generate dust, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to keep airborne dust levels below recommended exposure limits.

Hands

The use of protective gloves (nitrile)

Eyes

Eye protection equipment (e.g. goggles or visors) must be worn, unless potential contact with the eye can be excluded by the nature and type of application (i.e. closed process). Do not wear contact lenses. For powders, tight fitting goggles with side shields, or wide vision full goggles. It is also advisable to have individual pocket eyewash.

Respiratory

Local ventilation to keep levels below established threshold values is recommended. A suitable particle filter mask is recommended, depending on the expected exposure levels - please check the relevant exposure scenario, given in the Appendix/available via your supplier.

Skin/Body

Additionally, face protection, protective clothing and safety shoes are required to be worn as appropriate. Protective standard working clothes fully covering skin, full length trousers, long sleeved overalls, with close fittings at openings and shoes resistant to caustics and avoiding dust penetration are required to be worn.

Environmental

All ventilation systems should be filtered before discharge to atmosphere. Avoid releasing to the environment. Contain the spillage. Any large spillage into watercourses must be alerted to the regulatory authority responsible for environmental protection or other regulatory body.

Stability and Reactivity

Chemical stability, hazardous reactions, and incompatible materials

Stability

Under normal conditions of use and storage (dry conditions), calcium oxide is stable.

Reactivity

Calcium oxide reacts exothermically with water to form Calcium dihydroxide.

Hazardous reactions

Calcium oxide reacts exothermically with acids to form calcium salts.

Avoid

Minimise exposure to air and moisture to avoid degradation.

Incompatible

Calcium oxide reacts exothermically with water to form calcium dihydroxide: CaO + H2O → Ca(OH)2 + 1155 kJ/kg CaO. Calcium oxide reacts exothermically with acids to form calcium salts. Calcium oxide reacts with aluminium and brass in the presence of moisture leading to the production of hydrogen: CaO + 2 Al + 7 H2O → Ca(Al (OH)4)2 + 3 H2

Decomposition

None.
