You might want to divide and state the compounds that made up Calcium Hydroxide, its common name, the common usage for it, the industrial usage and the hazards of exposure to Calcium Hydroxide. Also the treatment if any. Group it up into paragraphs to make it clearer for readers.
I'm not sure I understand what this is. Is this an actual paper that you are going to submit? If it is, I suggest putting in more detail and putting things into paragraphs. If not, then, I believe that all the information is accurate.
