SAFETY DATA SHEET Flammability Summary (OSHA): This product contains an ingredient (calcium hypochlorite) which is both a strong oxidizer and is chemically reactive with many substances. Strong oxidizers are capable of intensifying a fire once started. Because of this, any contamination of the product with other substances by spill or otherwise should be avoided. Also see section 7., Product is not known to be flammable, combustible or pyrophoric.
SAFETY DATA SHEET Land Release: Additional Spill Information : Contact 1-800-654-6911 immediately. DANGER: All spills of this product should be treated as contaminated. Contaminated product may initiate a chemical reaction that may spontaneously ignite any combustible material present, resulting in a fire of great intensity. In case of a spill, separate all spilled product from packaging, debris and other material.
SAFETY DATA SHEET Incompatible Materials for Storage: Do Not Store At temperatures Above: Do not allow product to come in contact with other materials, including e.g. other pool treatment products, acids, organic materials, nitrogen-containing compounds, dry powder fire extinguishers (containing mono-ammonium phosphate), oxidizers, all corrosive liquids, flammable or combustible materials, etc A chemical reaction with such substances can cause a fire. Average daily temperature of 35° C / 95° F.
