HAZARD IDENTIFICATION A. Emergency Overview: Physical Appearance and Odor: Brown granules, mild odor. Warning Statements: No particular hazards known. B. Potential Health Effects: Primary Route of Entry: Routes of entry for solids include eye and skin contact, inhalation and ingestion. Effects of Overexposure: Acute Eye: Contact with eyes may result in temporary irritation. Acute Skin: Prolonged or repeated skin contact may result in temporary, slight irritation. Acute Inhalation: Dust that may be released in handling may cause symptoms typical of nuisance dusts, including coughing, sneezing and minor respiratory irritation. Acute Ingestion: Ingestion of large amounts may result in diarrhea and weakness. Chronic Effects: This product does not contain any ingredient designated by IARC, NTP, ACGIH or OSHA as probable or suspected human carcinogens. 4. FIRST AID MEASURES Eye Contact: DO NOT RUB EYES. Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water for 15 minutes lifting the lower and upper lids. Seek medical attention if necessary. Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and immediately wash affected area with large amounts of water for at least 5 minutes. If irritation or redness persists, seek medical attention if necessary. Inhalation: Move individual to fresh air and check to assure adequate respiration. Seek medical attention if necessary. Ingestion: If victim is conscious and able to swallow, quickly give milk or water to dilute. Do not give sodium bicarbonate, vinegar, or fruit juices. Seek medical attention if necessary. Induce vomiting only upon advice from a physician. Page 1 of 5 VERDE-CAL Material Safety Data Sheet Date Prepared: December 1, 2021 Supersedes Date: December 1, 2016 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Flash Point: Not established Flammability Limits (vol/vol%): Not established Extinguishing Media: Water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, and/or foam are recommended. Use water spray to cool containers exposed to fire. Protective Clothing: Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and protective firefighting clothing (includes firefighting helmet, coat, trousers, boots, and gloves). If protective equipment is not available or not used, fight fire from a protected location or safe distance. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Containment of Spill: Follow procedure described below. Clean-Up Procedures: Sweep up and shovel into a properly labeled and closed container. Dispose of collected material according to federal, state/provincial and local environmental regulations. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling: Avoid breathing vapors and mists. Avoid direct or prolonged contact with skin and eyes. Provide adequate ventilation when accessing or working with open containers and tanks. Storage: Store in tightly closed containers. Store in an area that is dry, well-ventilated, away from ignition sources, and away from incompatible materials (see Section 10. Stability and Reactivity). 8. EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTION Engineering controls: General mechanical ventilation can be expected to effectively remove and prevent buildup of any vapor or mist generated from handling this product in a closed environment. Personal Protection: Eyes: Wear safety glasses with side shields. Wear additional eye protection such as chemical goggles or face shield if splashing or spraying hazard exists. Have an eye wash station available. Body: To prevent skin contact wear coveralls, apron, boots, or lab coat. Hands: Avoid skin contact by using chemically resistant gloves. Respiratory: No respiratory protection required under normal conditions of use. Use local exhaust to control excessive vapors/mists. If excessive vapors or mists are persistent, use appropriate NIOSH/MSHA approved organic vapor/mist respirator. Other: Open wounds or skin surface disruptions should be covered with a chemical resistant patch to minimize absorption risks. Clean clothing should be worn daily to avoid possible long-term buildup of the product leading to chronic overexposure.
