HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Emergency overview
Oxidizing agent, contact with other material may cause fire. Under fire conditions this material may
decompose and release oxygen that intensifies fire. This product contains <1% non-respirable crystalline
silica. The NTP and OSHA have not classified non-respirable crystalline silica as carcinogenic. Long term
exposure to hazardous levels of respirable silica dusts can cause lung disease (silicosis). EHC-O does not
contain respirable crystalline silica.
