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

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Harmful if swallowed. Limited evidence of a carcinogenic effect. May
cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment. Toxic :
danger of serious damage to health by prolonged exposure through
inhalation and if swallowed.Cancer suspect agent.

Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation. Causes redness and pain. May cause
chemical conjunctivitis.
Skin:
May cause skin irritation.
Ingestion:
May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea. May cause kidney damage. Ingestion may result in a
decomposition to hydrogen sulfide in the stomach with systemic
poisoning. May cause worsening of asthma in asthmatics. Individuals
sensitive to sulfides may experience stomach upset, chest tightness
or wheezing.
Inhalation:
Inhalation of fumes may cause metal fume fever, which is
characterized by flu-like symptoms with metallic taste, fever,
chills, cough, weakness, chest pain, muscle pain and increased white
blood cell count. May cause lung damage. Olfactory fatigue may occur.
May cause salivation, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, fever, and
labored breathing. Can produce delayed pulmonary edema.
Chronic:
Cadmium and compounds may cause lung, liver and kidney damage and
lung and prostate cancer in humans. May cause lung damage. Chronic
exposure may cause blood effects. May cause kidney damage.

**** 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.
Skin:
Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while
removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if
irritation develops or persists. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
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.
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. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers
cool. Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas.
Containers may explode when heated. Non-combustible, substance
itself does not burn but may decompose upon heating to produce
corrosive and/or toxic fumes.
Extinguishing Media:
Do NOT get water inside containers. For small fires, use dry
chemical, carbon dioxide, or water spray. For large fires, use dry
chemical, carbon dioxide, alcohol-resistant foam, or water spray.
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:
Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
Equipment section. Sweep up, then place into a suitable container for
disposal. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide ventilation.

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

Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash hands before eating. Remove
contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Use only in a
well-ventilated area. Minimize dust generation and accumulation.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid ingestion and inhalation.
Storage:
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible
substances. Do not store in metal containers. Keep containers
tightly closed.

**** 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.
