Composition / Information on Ingredients
Chemical components, concentration ranges, and hazardous substance identification
| Chemical Name | CAS Number | Concentration | Hazardous |
|---|---|---|---|
| Water EC: 231-791-2 | 7732-18-5 | 60 - 80% | No |
| Silicic acid, sodium salt (MR>3.2) EC: 215-687-4 | 1344-09-8 | 20 - 40% | Yes |
The classification of the ingredient silicic acid, sodium salt is based on the powder form. Contains no non-classified vPvB substances or substances with a Union workplace exposure limit.
Notes
Specific concentration limit: sodium silicate solutions with molar ratio of >3.2 and solids content <40% are not classified as hazardous.
First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove patient from exposure, keep warm and at rest. Obtain medical attention.
Wash affected skin with plenty of water. If symptoms develop, obtain medical attention.
Irrigate with eyewash solution or clean water, holding the eyelids apart, for at least 15 minutes. Obtain immediate medical attention.
Do not induce vomiting. Wash out mouth with water and give 200-300 ml (half a pint) of water to drink. Obtain medical attention.
Immediate Medical Attention
Obtain medical attention. Obtain immediate medical attention (for eye contact).

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid generation of mist. Provide adequate ventilation. Emergency shower and eye wash facilities should be readily available.
Do not allow material to freeze.
Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Engineering methods to prevent or control exposure are preferred. Methods include process or personnel enclosure, mechanical ventilation (dilution and local exhaust), and control of process conditions.
Plastic or rubber gloves. For example EN374-3, level 6 breakthrough time (>480min).
Chemical goggles (EN 166).
Respiratory protection not normally required. Advice on respiratory protective equipment is given in the HSE (Health and Safety Executive) publication HS(G)53.
Wear suitable protective clothing and gloves. Wear suitable overalls. For example EN ISO 13982 (dust), EN 14605 (liquid splashes).
The primary hazard of sodium silicate is the alkalinity. Do not release large quantities into the surface water or into drains.

Stability and Reactivity
Chemical stability, hazardous reactions, and incompatible materials
Stable under normal conditions.
See Section: 10.3
When arc welding vessels containing aqueous solutions of this material, take care to control any explosion risk from hydrogen evolved by electrolysis. Aqueous solutions will react with aluminium, zinc, tin and their alloys evolving hydrogen gas which can form an explosive mixture with air. Can react violently if in contact with acids. Can react with sugar residues to form carbon monoxide.
