SECTION 8: Exposure Controls and Personal Protection Ingredient OSHA PEL ACGIH TLV (8-hr TWA) (8-hr TWA) Calcium Chloride None Established None Established Potassium Chloride None Established None Established Sodium Chloride None Established None Established Engineering Controls: General dilution ventilation and/or local exhaust ventilation should be provided to minimize exposures. Personal Protection: Respiratory Protection: If irritation occurs, use a NIOSH/MSHA approved air purifying respirator for dusts/mists. Use respiratory protection in accordance with your company's respiratory protection program, local or OSHA regulations under 29 CFR 1910.134. Skin Protection: Wear long sleeved shirt, long pants and chemical resistant gloves such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene or vitron. Luther clothing and shoes will be damaged by calcium chloride. Eye Protection: Wear chemical protective goggles and a face shield. Work/Hygienic Practices: Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices. These include avoiding any unnecessary exposures and removal of the material from skin, eyes and clothing. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Safety showers and eye wash stations should be available. SECTION 9: Physical and Chemical Properties Vapor Pressure(mm Hg @ 250C): 7- 15 Vapor Density(Air--I): Same as water. Specific Gravity(water--I): 1.3- 1.44 Boiling Point: 230-251 OF (110- 1220C) Solubility in Water: Soluble Viscosity: Not Available pH: Not Available, Slightly Basic Physical State: Liquid Appearance: Green Liquid. Freezing Point: Not Available Evaporation Rate (n-Butyl Acetate=1): Not Available Odor Type: None SECTION 10: Stability and Reactivity General: Sta_�,ie. Incompatible Materials and Conditions to Avoid: Calcium chloride will: corrode most metals exposed to air; attack aluminum (and its alloys) and yellow brass; react with sulfuric acid to form hydrogen chloride which is corrosive, irritating and reactive; give exothermic reaction with water-reactive materials such as sodium; result in runaway polymerization reaction with methyl vinyl ether; and, in solution form react with zinc (galvanizing) to yield hydrogen gas which is explosive. Hazardous Decomposition Products: None known. See Section 5 of MSDS for combustion products statement. Hazardous Polymerization: May occur is combined with methyl vinyl ether.
