Silicosis may aggravate or increase <br />the risk of tuberculosis, scleroderma, nephrotoxicity, bronchitis, emphysema, and asthma. Actions taken to control <br />hazards related to respirable crystalline silica are adequate to control hazards from microorganisms that may be also <br />present in some products. <br />Eye Contact: A mechanical irritant which can cause moderate eye irritation. This product may cause abrasion to the <br />cornea. Avoid wearing contact lenses when working with product.</p> <p>SECTION 3) COMPOSITION / INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS <br />CAS <br />7631-86-9 <br />14808-60-7 <br />9009-54-5 <br />14808-60-7</p> <p>Chemical Name <br />Amorphous Silica, SiO2 <br />Total Crystalline Silica (Quartz), SiO2 <br />Rubinate DINP T-12 <br />Respirable Crystalline Silica (Quartz < 4 μm), SiO2</p> <p>% By Weight <br />76 - 87 <br />13 - 24 <br />.57 <br />.06</p> <p>SECTION 4) FIRST AID MEASURES</p> <p>Inhalation: No specific first-aid is necessary since adverse health effects associated with exposure to <br />crystalline silica (quartz) result from chronic exposure.

If irritation persists, seek medical attention. <br />Skin Contact: None required. <br />Ingestion: Not applicable.</p> <p>SECTION 5) FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES</p> <p>This product is not flammable, combustible or explosive. Hazardous polymerization will not occur.</p> <p>SECTION 6) ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES</p> <p>Spills: Use of dustless methods (water or HEPA-A type Vacuum) to clean up if possible. Avoid breathing dust. <br />See personal protective equipment (PPE) specified in EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTION <br />SECTION 8. <br />Waste Disposal Methods: This product is not a hazardous waste and should be disposed of in accordance <br />with federal, state and local regulations. See SECTION 13.</p> <p>SDS Coated Quartz Sand <br />SDS DATE: 22-AUG-19</p> <p>www.aquafin.net</p> <p>Page 1 of 3</p> <p>Coated Quartz Sand <br />Safety Data Sheet</p> <p>SECTION 7) HANDLING AND STORAGE</p> <p>Precautions During Handling and Use: Do not breathe dust. Use adequate ventilation and/or dust collection methods. <br />Avoid breakage of bagged material or spills of bulk material. Wash or vacuum clothing which becomes dusty. If <br />concentrations exceed applicable standards, then use proper respiratory protection. Avoid contact with eyes. The wearing <br />of contact lenses is not recommended. See SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION. <br />Storage Requirements: Avoid windblown dust by shielding or covering outdoor stockpiles. <br />Special Sensitivity or Incompatibility: Avoid contact with strong acids and oxidizers. See SECTION 10.

Use administrative <br />controls such job rotation to supplement engineering controls. Use personal protection equipment (PPE) as a last resort to <br />control exposure. <br />Respiratory Protection: Not normally required. May be required if material is further reduced in size to produce a higher <br />fraction of respirable crystalline silica dust or dispersed into air (e.g. sandblasting). When concentrations exceed <br />applicable standards, a NIOSH/MSHA approved air purifying respirator with HEPA cartridges or supplied air is <br />recommended. <br />Eye Protection: Wear safety glasses with side shields or goggles to protect eyes from dust and particulate. Wearing of <br />contact lenses is not recommended because dust can get under the lenses and cause abrasion of the cornea. <br />Skin Protection: Not required under normal circumstances <br />Exposure Limits</p> <p>SECTION 9) PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES <br />Appearance: This product is a natural sand or aggregate <br />Odor: None <br />Odor threshold: Not Applicable <br />pH: Not Applicable <br />Melting point/freezing point: 3050 ˚F (1677C) <br />Initial Boiling Point: 4046 ˚F (2230 C) <br />Flash point: Not Applicable <br />Evaporation rate: Not Applicable <br />Flammability: Not Applicable</p> <p>Upper/lower flammability limits: Not Applicable <br />Vapor pressure: Not Applicable <br />Vapor density: Not Applicable <br />Relative density (H2O = 1): 2.60 - 2.65 <br />Solubility: Insoluble <br />Partition coefficient: Not Applicable <br />Auto-ignition temperature: Not Applicable <br />Decomposition temperature: Not Applicable <br />Viscosity: Not Applicable</p> <p>SECTION 10) STABILITY AND REACTIVITY</p> <p>Reactivity: Inert <br />Chemical stability: Stable <br />Possibility of hazardous reactions: Unlikely <br />Conditions to avoid: Crushing this material will increase the respirable fraction and related hazards. <br />Incompatible materials: Contact with strong acids or oxidizing agents such as molten magnesium, fluorine, chlorine <br />trifluoride, manganese trioxide, oxygen difluoride, or hydrofluoric acid may cause fires or generation of corrosive gases. <br />Hazardous decomposition products: None</p> <p>SDS Coated Quartz Sand <br />SDS DATE: 22-AUG-19</p> <p>www.aquafin.net</p> <p>Page 2 of 3</p> <p>Coated Quartz Sand <br />Safety Data Sheet</p> <p>SECTION 11) TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION</p> <p>Likely routes of exposure: Inhalation and eye contact. <br />Symptoms related to the physical, chemical and toxicological characteristics: <br />Silicosis: Prolonged exposure to respirable crystalline silica may cause silicosis, a fibrosis (scarring) of the lungs which is <br />permanent and progressive that may lead to death.
