3. Hazards Identification
Primary Routes(s) Of Entry
Inhalation, Skin Contact, Eye Contact, Ingestion
Eye Hazards
Irritant, severe eye irritation. May cause eye injury. Effects may be delayed.
Skin Hazards
Contains Portland cement and exposure to dry Portland cement may cause drying of skin with consequent mild
irritation. Prolonged contact with wet Portland cement may cause severe, potentially irreversible damage to the skin
in the form of chemical (caustic) burns.

3. Hazards Identification - Continued
Ingestion Hazards
Ingestion is not known to be harmful, however the product contains Portland cement which is caustic to mucus
tissue and should not be consumed.
Inhalation Hazards
Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause nose, throat, and lung irritation. May cause delayed lung injury.
Chronic/Carcinogenicity Effects
CONTAINS SILICA SAND, KNOWN HUMAN CARCINOGEN. MAY CONTAIN OTHER CHEMICALS ON CA
PROPOSITION 65 LIST.
4. First Aid Measures
Eye
In case of contact, hold eyelids apart and immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get
medical attention immediately if irritation develops and persists.
Skin
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention
immediately if irritation (redness, rash, blistering) develops and persists.
Ingestion
DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. If victim is fully conscious, give one or two cups of water or milk to drink. Get medical attention immediately.
Inhalation
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. Consult a physician immediately if irritation persists. Do not give an unconscious person anything to drink.
