**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Harmful by inhalation and if swallowed. Explosive when mixed with
combustible material.Hygroscopic (absorbs moisture from the air).
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause severe eye irritation. May cause conjunctivitis. May
cause permanent corneal opacification.
Skin:
May cause severe irritation and possible burns.
Ingestion:
May be harmful if swallowed. May cause burns to the gastrointestinal
tract. May cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, possibly with blood.
Inhalation:
May cause severe irritation of the respiratory tract with possible
burns. May be harmful if inhaled. May cause acute pulmonary edema,
asphyxia, chemical pneumonitis, and upper airway obstruction caused
by edema.
Chronic:
No information found.
**** 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
immediately.
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:
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. Strong oxidizer. Contact with other material may
cause fire. Use water with caution and in flooding amounts.
Extinguishing Media:
Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Contact professional
fire-fighters immediately.
**** 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 or absorb material, then place into a
suitable clean, dry, closed container for disposal. Avoid generating
dusty conditions. Remove all sources of ignition.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Use with adequate ventilation.
Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Keep container tightly
closed. Avoid contact with clothing and other combustible materials.
Do not get on skin or in eyes. Avoid ingestion and inhalation.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Do not store near
combustible materials. 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 process enclosure,
local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control
airborne levels.
