International Chemical Safety Cards CALCIUM ICSC: 1192 Elemental Calcium Ca Atomic mass: 40.1 ICSC #    1192 CAS #     7440-70-2 RTECS # EV8040000 UN #        1401; 1855 (calcium pyrophoric) EC #         020-001-00-X October 24, 1994 Peer reviewed TYPES OF HAZARD/ EXPOSURE ACUTE HAZARDS/ SYMPTOMS PREVENTION FIRST AID/ FIRE FIGHTING FIRE Not combustible but forms flammable gas on contact with water or damp air. Highly flammable when finely divided. Forms flammable gas on contact with water or damp air. Many reactions may cause fire or explosion. NO open flames, NO sparks, and NO smoking. NO contact with water and incompatible substances (see Chemical Dangers). Special powder, dry sand, NO other agents. NO water. EXPLOSION Risk of fire and explosion on contact with water and incompatible substances (see Chemical Dangers). In case of fire: cool drums, etc., by spraying with water but avoid contact of the substance with water. EXPOSURE PREVENT DISPERSION OF DUST!  •INHALATION Avoid inhalation of fine dust and mist. Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention.  •SKIN Protective gloves. Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. Refer for medical attention.  •EYES Redness. Pain. Safety goggles. First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.  •INGESTION Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Refer for medical attention. SPILLAGE DISPOSAL STORAGE PACKAGING & LABELLING Remove all ignition sources. Sweep spilled substance into containers. Do NOT wash away into sewer. Carefully collect remainder, then remove to safe place. Do NOT absorb in saw-dust or other combustible absorbents. (Extra personal protection: complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus). Fireproof. Separated from incompatible substances (see Chemical Dangers). Dry. Keep under inert gas. Keep under petroleum oil. Airtight. Unbreakable packaging; put breakable packaging into closed unbreakable container.
