Hazardous Ingredients
Portland cement clinker (CAS# 65997-15- 1) - approximately - 93.5-96.0 % by weight
ACGIH TLV-TWA (2000) = 10 mg total dust/m3
OSHA PEL (8-hour TWA) = 50 million particles/ft3
Gypsum (CAS# 7778-18-9) - approximately - 4.0-6.5 % by weight
ACGIH TLV-TWA (2000) = 10 mg total dust/m3
OSHA PEL (8-hour TWA) = 15 mg total dust/m3
OSHA PEL (8-hour TWA) = 5 mg respirable dust/m3
Respirable quartz (CAS# 14808-60-7) – greater than 0.1% by weight
ACGIH TLV-TWA (2000) = 0.05 mg respirable quartz dust/m3
OSHA PEL (8-hour TWA) = (10 mg respirable dust/m3)/(percent silica + 2)
Trace Ingredients
Trace amounts of naturally occurring chemicals might be detected during chemical analysis. Trace constituents may include up to
0.75% insoluble residue, some of which may be free crystalline silica, calcium oxide (Also known as lime or quick lime), magnesium oxide, potassium sulfate, sodium sulfate, chromium compounds, and nickel
