**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Toxic by inhalation and if swallowed. May cause sensitization by
inhalation and skin contact. Very toxic to aquatic organisms.Toxic.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes severe eye irritation. May cause eye injury. May cause
chemical conjunctivitis.
Skin:
Causes severe skin irritation. May cause skin sensitization, an
allergic reaction, which becomes evident upon re-exposure to this
material.
Ingestion:
Harmful if swallowed. May cause severe irritation of the digestive
tract.
Inhalation:
Harmful if inhaled. May cause respiratory tract irritation. In rare
instances, exposure may cause sensitization, resulting in
inflammation of the mucous membranes and in eczematous eruptions.
Chronic:
Effects may be delayed. Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause
allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.
**** 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. Destroy contaminated shoes.
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. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation.
Notes to Physician:
**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****
General Information:
Containers can build up pressure if exposed to heat and/or fire. 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. Vapors may be
heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and collect in
low or confined areas. Non-combustible, substance itself does not
burn but may decompose upon heating to produce irritating, corrosive
and/or toxic fumes.
Extinguishing Media:
Use water fog, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or regular foam. Cool
containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is
out.
**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead to waterways.
Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
Equipment section. Absorb spill using an absorbent, non-combustible
material such as earth, sand, or vermiculite. Do not use combustible
materials such as sawdust. Provide ventilation.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Use only in a well-ventilated area.
Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Do not ingest or
inhale.
Storage:
Keep container closed when not in use. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
**** 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 general or
local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below the
permissible exposure limits.
