**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Toxic by inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed. Causes
burns. Harmful : danger of serious damage to health by prolonged
exposure through inhalation, in contact with skin and if
swallowed.Possible risk of irreversible effects.Corrosive.Highly
toxic.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Contact with liquid or vapor causes severe burns and possible
irreversible eye damage.
Skin:
Causes severe skin irritation. May be fatal if absorbed through the
skin. Harmful if absorbed through the skin. Causes skin burns.
Causes symptoms similar to those of inhalation. May cause severe
pain, swelling, tissue destruction, and possible shock. May cause
skin discoloration.
Ingestion:
Harmful if swallowed. Symptoms may include: headache, excitement,
fatigue, nausea, vomiting, stupor, and coma. May cause liver and
kidney damage. May cause central nervous system depression,
characterized by excitement, followed by headache, dizziness,
drowsiness, and nausea. Advanced stages may cause collapse,
unconsciousness, coma and possible death due to respiratory failure.
Causes digestive tract burns with immediate pain, swelling of the
throat, convulsions, and possible coma.
Inhalation:
Harmful if inhaled. Causes severe irritation of upper respiratory
tract with coughing, burns, breathing difficulty, and possible coma.
May be fatal if exposed to high concentrations. May also cause
pallor, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weakness,
darkened urine, headache, sweating, convulsions, cyanosis (bluish
skin due to deficient oxygenation of the blood), unconsciousness,
fatigue, pulmonary edema & coma.
Chronic:
Chronic inhalation and ingestion may cause effects similar to those
of acute inhalation and ingestion. May cause liver and kidney
damage. Repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis with dark
pigmentation of the skin.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid
immediately.
Skin:
Get medical aid immediately. Immediately flush skin with plenty of
water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing
and shoes. Discard contaminated clothing in a manner which limits
further exposure. SPEEDY ACTION IS CRITICAL!
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4
cupfuls of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. Get medical aid immediately.
Inhalation:
Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh
air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If
breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
Notes to Physician:
**** 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. Vapors may form an explosive mixture with air. Use
water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Wear appropriate
protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes. Wear a
self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) to prevent contact with
thermal decomposition products. Vapors may be heavier than air. They
can spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas.
Extinguishing Media:
Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Use water fog, dry
chemical, carbon dioxide or alcohol type foam.
**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth),
then place in suitable container. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Provide
ventilation.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Use only in a well-ventilated area.
Use with adequate ventilation. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on
clothing. Do not ingest or inhale. Wash clothing before reuse.
Storage:
Keep away from heat and flame. Keep away from sources of ignition.
Keep refrigerated. (Store below 4C/39F.) Keep from contact with
oxidizing materials. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away
from incompatible substances.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne
concentrations below the permissible exposure limits.

Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes:
Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical
safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face
protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European
Standard EN166.
Skin:
Wear neoprene gloves, apron, and/or clothing.
Selection of specific glove materials should be based
on your conditions of use in your application in
consultation with your Safety Officer and
manufacturer's glove recommendations. Many factors
influence the determination of proper glove material
such as permeation rates and break through time.
Clothing:
Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin
exposure.
Respirators:
Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29
CFR 1910.134 or European Standard EN 149. Use a
NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149 approved
respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if
irritation or other symptoms are experienced.
