MSDS 259, Page 2 of 2
Carcinogenicity: IARC classifies crystalline silica (quartz sand) as Group I based upon evidence among workers in
industries where there has been long-term and chronic exposure (via inhalation) to silica dust;
e.g. mining, quarry, stone crushing, refractory brick and pottery workers. This product does not
pose a dust hazard; therefore, this classification is not relevant. Based upon the nature and
intended use of this product, it does not pose an increased cancer risk to workers.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Eyes: Immediately flush with plenty of water. Call a physician if symptoms occur.
Skin: Immediately wipe off material and wash with soap and water. Material can adhere to the skin. If
material has adhered to the skin, use an abrasive containing hand cleaner. If material does not
come off, buff with a pumice stone.
Inhalation: Move victim to fresh air if discomfort develops. Call a physician if symptoms persist.
Ingestion: Seek medical attention. Do not induce vomiting unless directed by a physician. If a large quantity
was ingested, give 1 to 2 glasses of water to dilute. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person.
Other:
Referral to a physician is recommended if there is any question about the seriousness of the
injury/exposure.
CONTROL MEASURES AND PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Ventilation: General (natural or mechanically induced fresh air movements).
Eye Protection:
Not required, however, safety glasses should be worn in most industrial settings.
Skin Protection:
Avoid skin contact. Cloth gloves are suitable for hand protection.
Respiratory Protection: None normally required. Where ventilation is inadequate to control vapors, use a NIOSH-
approved respirator with organic vapor cartridges. Never enter a confined space without an
appropriate air-supplied respirator.
PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE
Handling and Storing
Precautions:
Store in a cool, dry area preferably between 40º and 77º F. Keep from freezing. Do not store in
