FIRST AID MEASURES For advice, contact Poisons Information Centre (phone Australia ) or a doctor (For each route of exposure provide indication of medical attention and special treatment needed including description of most important symptoms, acute and delayed) Inhalation Skin Contact Eye Contact Ingestion Note to Physician If dust is inhaled, remove from contaminated area. Encourage patient to blow nose to ensure clear passage of breathing. If irritation or discomfort persists seek medical attention. If skin or hair contact occurs: Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available). Seek medical attention in event of irritation. If this product comes in contact with the eyes: Wash out immediately with fresh running water. Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention without delay; if pain persists or recurs seek medical attention. Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled personnel. Immediately give a glass of water. First aid is not generally required. If in doubt, contact a Poisons Information Centre or a doctor. Treat symptomatically. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Hazards from combustion products Precautions for firefighters and special protective equipment Suitable / Unsuitable extinguishing material Non combustible. Not considered a significant fire risk, however containers may burn. Decomposition may produce toxic fumes of: hydrogen chloride. Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves in the event of a fire. Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water courses. Use fire fighting procedures suitable for surrounding area. DO NOT approach containers suspected to be hot. There is no restriction on the type of extinguisher which may be used. Use extinguishing media suitable for surrounding area. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Emergency procedures CAUTION: Advise personnel in area. Alert Emergency Services and tell them location and nature of hazard. Control personal contact by wearing protective clothing. Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water courses. Methods and materials for containment and clean up Clean up all spills immediately. Avoid breathing dust and contact with skin and eyes. Wear protective clothing, gloves, safety glasses and dust respirator. Use dry clean up procedures and avoid generating dust. Sweep up, shovel up or vacuum up (consider explosion-proof machines designed to be grounded during storage and use). Environmental precaution(s) DO NOT discharge into sewer or waterways. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for safe handling Conditions for safe storage Avoid all personal contact, including inhalation. Wear protective clothing when risk of exposure occurs. Use in a well-ventilated area. Prevent concentration in hollows and sumps. DO NOT enter confined spaces until atmosphere has been checked. Store in original containers. Keep containers securely sealed. Store in a cool, dry area protected from environmental extremes. Store away from incompatible materials and foodstuff containers.

4 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION National Exposure Standards Biological Limit Values Engineering Controls Personal Protective Equipment Calcium chloride, hydrated TEEL-1: 16 mg/m3 TEEL-2: 170 mg/m3 TEEL-3: 1,100 mg/m3. Engineering controls are used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard. Well-designed engineering controls can be highly effective in protecting workers and will typically be independent of worker interactions to provide this high level of protection. The basic types of engineering controls are: Process controls which involve changing the way a job activity or process is done to reduce the risk. Enclosure and/or isolation of emission source which keeps a selected hazard "physically" away from the worker and ventilation that strategically "adds" and "removes" air in the work environment. Ventilation can remove or dilute an air contaminant if designed properly. Safety glasses with side shields. Chemical goggles. Overalls. P.V.C. apron. Barrier cream. Skin cleansing cream ALDI Safety Data Sheet Template; Release: Page 4 of 7

STABILITY AND REACTIVITY Reactivity Chemical Stability Conditions to avoid Incompatible Materials Hazardous Decomposition Products Hazardous Reactions Product is considered stable. In presence of moisture, the material is corrosive to aluminium, zinc and tin producing highly flammable hydrogen gas. See section 7. Calcium chloride (and its hydrates): are incompatible with boric acid, calcium oxide, bromine trifluoride, 2-furan, percarboxylic acid; may produce explosive hydrogen gas on contact with zinc; catalyse exothermic polymerisation of methyl vinyl ether; produce heat on contact with water; attack metals. Hydrogen chloride. Hazardous polymerisation will not occur. 11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION Health Effects Ingestion Eye Contact Skin Contact Inhalation Long term effects Acute Toxicity/ Chronic Toxicity: (ie LD 50 ) The material has NOT been classified by EC Directives or other classification systems as "harmful by ingestion". This is because of the lack of corroborating animal or human evidence. This material can cause eye irritation and damage in some persons. The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or skin irritation following contact (as classified by EC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable gloves be used in an occupational setting. Open cuts, abraded or irritated skin should not be exposed to this material. The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or irritation of the respiratory tract (as classified by EC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable control measures be used in an occupational setting. Persons with impaired respiratory function, airway diseases and conditions such as emphysema or chronic bronchitis, may incur further disability if excessive concentrations of particulate are inhaled. If prior damage to the circulatory or nervous systems has occurred or if kidney damage has been sustained, proper screenings should be conducted on individuals who may be exposed to further risk if handling and use of the material result in excessive exposures. Long-term exposure to the product is not thought to produce chronic effects adverse to the health (as classified by EC Directives using animal models); nevertheless exposure by all routes should be minimised as a matter of course.
