| Cement
should be stored dry, otherwise its quality will deteriorate through premature hydration
and carbonation. Moisture from the air can be as harmful as direct moisture. Cement stored
in bulk, in a well-maintained silo, should maintain its quality for some months. RHPC is
supplied in moisture resistant paper bags to give improved storage life. |
|
 |
| When
cement is mixed with water an alkaline solution is produced. Precautions should be taken
to avoid skin contact with wet cement, fresh concrete and mortar and to prevent dry cement
from entering the eyes, mouth and nose. Suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face
protection should be worn. |
| If
contact with body fluids occurs wash off immediately with clean water and in the case of
contact with eyes seek medical advice. |
