First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove exposed person to fresh air and support breathing as needed. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Consult a physician immediately if irritation persists.
Symptoms: Respiratory tract irritation and coughing. Inhalation may cause irritation to the moist mucous membranes of the nose, throat and upper respiratory system, and may cause certain lung disease.
Immediately wash affected areas with neutral soap and clean, cool water for at least 15 minutes. For reddened or blistered skin, consult a physician immediately.
Symptoms: Pain or irritation, redness and blistering may occur, skin burns, ulceration and necrosis may occur. Causes severe burns. May cause an allergic skin reaction.
Immediately thoroughly flush eyes with clean water. Continue flushing eyes for at least 15 minutes, including under lids to remove all particles. Consult a physician immediately. Remove contact lenses.
Symptoms: Pain, watering and redness. Causes serious eye damage.
If the material is ingested, have the conscious person drink plenty of water or milk. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Consult a physician immediately.
Symptoms: Stomach pains. May cause burns to mouth, throat and stomach.
Immediate Medical Attention
Inhalation of large amounts of Portland cement requires immediate medical attention. Consult a physician immediately.
Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically. Contact poison treatment specialist immediately if large quantities have been ingested or inhaled.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Use an extinguishing agent suitable for the surrounding fire.
Do not use water jet or water-based fire extinguishers.
No specific fire or explosion hazard.
Move containers from fire area if this can be done without risk. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool.
Firefighter Protection
Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure mode.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Use dry clean-up methods that do not disperse dust into the air or entry into surface water.
Use dry clean-up methods that do not disperse dust into the air or entry into surface water. Scrape up wet material and place in an appropriate container. Allow the material to “dry” before disposal.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Keep dry until used. Handle and store in a manner so that airborne dust does not exceed applicable exposure limits. Use exposure control and personal protection methods as described in Section 8. Keep out of reach of children.
Keep dry until used.

Stability and Reactivity
Chemical stability, hazardous reactions, and incompatible materials
Product is stable. Keep dry until used.
No dangerous reactions known under normal use. Reacts slowly with water forming hydrate compounds, releasing heat and producing a strong alkali solution until the reactions is substantially complete.
No dangerous reactions known under normal use. Do not mix with or expose to other chemicals.
Unintentional contact with water. Contact with water will result in hydration and produces (caustic) calcium hydroxide.
Reactive or incompatible with the following materials: oxidizing materials, acids, aluminum and ammonium salt. Masonry cement is highly alkaline and will react with acids to produce a violent, heat-generating reaction. Toxic gases or vapors may be given off depending on the acid involved. Reacts with acids, aluminum metals and ammonium salts. Aluminum powder and other alkali and alkaline earth elements will react in wet mortar or concrete, liberating hydrogen gas. Limestone ignites on contact with fluorine and is incompatible with acids, alum, ammonium salts, and magnesium. Silica reacts violently with powerful oxidizing agents such as fluorine, boron trifluoride, chlorine trifluoride, manganese trifluoride, and oxygen difluoride yielding possible fire and/or explosions. Silicates dissolve readily in hydrofluoric acid producing a corrosive gas — silicon tetrafluoride.
