**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Harmful by inhalation and if swallowed.Hygroscopic (absorbs moisture
from the air).The toxicological properties of this material have not
been fully investigated.

Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause eye irritation.
Skin:
May cause skin irritation.
Ingestion:
Harmful if swallowed. The toxicological properties of this substance
have not been fully investigated. May cause kidney, liver and spleen
damage. The barium ion is a muscle poison causing stimulation and
then paralysis. Initial symptoms are gastrointestinal, including
nausea, vomiting, colic, and diarrhea, followed by myocardial and
general muscular stimulation with tingling in the extremities. The
barium ion is a muscle poison causing stimulation and then
paralysis. Initial symptoms are gastrointestinal, including nausea,

is a muscle poison causing stimulation and then paralysis. Initial
symptoms are gastrointestinal, including nausea, vomiting, colic,
and diarrhea, followed by myocardial and general muscular
stimulation with tingling in the extremities.
Inhalation:
Harmful if inhaled. The toxicological properties of this substance
have not been fully investigated. Inhalation of dust may cause
respiratory tract irritation. Inhalation at high concentrations may
cause CNS depression and asphixiation.
Chronic:
Inhalation at high concentrations may cause CNS depression and
asphixiation.

**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****

Eyes:
Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing
before reuse.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical
aid. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and
drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If breathing
is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply artificial respiration
using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a
mask.
Notes to Physician:
If breathing has ceased apply artificial respiration using oxygen
and a suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a mask.

**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****

General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases
may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Substance
is noncombustible.
Extinguishing Media:
Substance is noncombustible; use agent most appropriate to
extinguish surrounding fire. Use agent most appropriate to extinguish
fire.

**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****

General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal
container. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the
Protective Equipment section. Avoid generating dusty conditions.
Provide ventilation.

**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****

Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Use only in a well-ventilated area.
Use with adequate ventilation. Minimize dust generation and
accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep
container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation.
Storage:
Store in a cool, dry place. Store in a tightly closed container.
Store protected from moisture.

**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****

Engineering Controls:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate
ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low.
