2 Calcium oxychloride; chlorinated lime; hypochlorous acid; ChlortabsSection 03 - Hazard and mist irritate the nose and throat. In confined areas, mechanicalagitation can result in high levels of dust, and reaction with incompatiblesmaterials ( , acids and water/moisture) can result in high concentrationsof chlorine vapour, either of which may result in burns to the respiratorytract, producing lung edema, shortness of breath, wheezing, choking, chest pains, impairment of lung function, and possible permanent lung Contact / hypochlorite dust and solutions can cause irritation and in severecases, chemical burns, which are characterized by redness, swelling, andscab formation. Moisture from perspirations will accelerate to calcium hypochlorite can cause eye irritation and visionimpairment. Contact can produce impairment of vision and corneal ingested, there will be burning of the mouth and throat.

3 Can causeabdominal cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, and/or tissue ulcerationwhich may lead to convulsions, coma, and even 3mg/m3 as chlorine (manufacturer's internal standard)Section 04 - First Aid victim to fresh air. Give artificial respiration only if breathing has stopped. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Seek immediate medical Contact / contaminated clothing. Wash affected area with soap and water. Seek medical attention if irritation occurs or immediately with water for at least 20 minutes. Forcibly hold eyelids apart to ensure complete irrigation of eye tissue. Seek immediate medical #CHYP Page 3 of give large amounts of water. Do not induce vomiting.

4 Ifvomiting occurs, lean victim forward to prevent breathing in vomitus. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person. Seekimmediate medical availableSection 05 - Fire FightingConditions of Note calcium hypochlorite is a strong oxidizing agent; may form explosive mixtures with combustibles, organic, or other oxidizable of with water, and cool surrounding products and area with dry extinguishers containing ammonium ApplicableAuto-ignition ApplicableUpper Flammable Limit ..Not ApplicableLower Flammable ApplicableHazardous Combustible , oxygen, and chlorine monoxide at higher temperatures. Water in contact with hot calcium hypochlorite can release hydrochloric acid orchlorine Fire Fighting NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing.

Prevent Material from entering sewers. Flush with water to remove any availableProduct #CHYP Page 4 of 8 Section 07 - Handling and StorageHandling proper equipment for lifting and transporting all containers. Use sensible industrial hygiene and housekeeping practices. Wash thoroughly after handling. Avoid all situations that could lead to harmful in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed, and away from incompatible materials. Keep out of the 08 - Personal Protection and Exposure Controls Protective goggles, full-face shield, or a full-face respirator is to be worn at all times when product is handled.

6 Contact lenses should not be worn; they may contribute to severe eye NIOSH-approved respirator - full facepiece with chlorine and dust/mist cartridges when dust is present. Use a self-contained breathing apparatus should be used for major gloves of chemically resistant Material (rubber or PVC) should be worn at all times. Wash contaminated clothing and dry thoroughly before suits, aprons, and/or coveralls of chemical resistant Material should be worn at all times. Wash contaminated clothing and dry thoroughly before boots of chemically resistant Material should be worn at all timesEngineering ControlsVentilation ventilation (dilution or local exhaust), process or personnel enclosure, and control of process conditions should be provided. Supply sufficient replacement air to make up for air removed by exhaust shower and eyewash should be in close proximity.
