毒理性
识别和使用:过氧化钙是一种白色或微黄色的粉末。它用作橡胶的稳定剂。其他用途包括种子消毒剂、牙膏、面团调节剂、消毒剂、油类的漂白、淀粉的改性、高温氧化。过氧化钙的一个重要应用是用于固化双层玻璃窗单元中使用的多硫化物密封剂。过氧化钙也用于澳大利亚的几个金矿,以增加黄金的回收率并减少氰化物的消耗。过氧化钙已被确定为在液压致裂中作为破裂剂使用。人类暴露和毒性:接触过氧化钙可能会严重刺激并可能烧伤皮肤和眼睛。暴露可能刺激眼睛、鼻子和喉咙。长期暴露可能损害皮肤。较高水平的过氧化钙可能会刺激肺部,导致咳嗽和/或呼吸急促。更高程度的暴露可能会导致肺部积液(肺水肿)。这可能导致死亡。动物研究:过氧化钙的实验表明,口服处理的过氧化钙对狗不具有毒性。生态毒性研究:提出了一种新方法,使用颗粒状过氧化钙(CaO2)作为缓慢释放氧气的化合物,来增加湖泊中的氧气水平。这种化合物在与水反应期间释放氧气(O2),持续5到7个月。该方法已在实验室和现场条件下进行了测试。
IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Calcium peroxide is white or yellowish powder. It is used as a stabilizer for rubber. Other uses including seed disinfectant, dentifrices, dough conditioners, antiseptic, bleaching of oils, modification of starches, high temperature oxidation. An important application of calcium peroxide is for curing the polysulfide sealants used in double glazing window units. Calcium peroxide is also used at several gold mines in Australia to increase recovery of gold and reduce the consumption of cyanide. Calcium peroxide has been identified as being used in hydraulic fracturing as a breaker. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: Contact with calcium peroxide can severely irritate and may burn the skin and eyes. Exposure can irritate the eyes, nose, and throat. Prolonged exposure can damage the skin. Higher levels of calcium peroxide can irritate the lungs causing coughing and/or shortness of breath. Still higher exposures may cause a buildup of fluid in the lungs (pulmonary edema). This can cause death. ANIMAL STUDIES: Experiments with calcium peroxide revealed that the compound is not toxic to dogs treated orally. ECOTOXICITY STUDIES: New method was proposed for increasing the oxygen level in lakes using granulated calcium peroxide (CaO2) as a slow oxygen releasing compound. This compound releases oxygen (O2) in a reaction with water during 5 to 7 months. The method was tested in both laboratory and field conditions.
