toxicological properties of this material have not been fully
investigated.

Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye burns. May cause conjunctivitis. May cause permanent
corneal opacification. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and corneal
damage.
Skin:
Causes skin burns. May cause skin rash (in milder cases), and cold
and clammy skin with cyanosis or pale color.

Chronic:
Effects may be delayed.

**** 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. Do
NOT allow victim to rub eyes or keep eyes closed. Extensive
irrigation with water is required (at least 30 minutes).
Skin:
Get medical aid. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and 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. Get medical aid immediately. Do
NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and drink
2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
Inhalation:
Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh
air immediately. 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:

**** 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. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be
generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Use water with
caution and in flooding amounts.
Extinguishing Media:
Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Contact professional
fire-fighters immediately. Use water. Do not use dry chemicals or
foams. CO2 or Halon may provide limited control.

**** 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. Remove all
sources of ignition. Provide ventilation. Place under an inert
atmosphere.

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

Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid
contact with clothing and other combustible materials. Do not get on
skin or in eyes. Do not ingest or inhale. Use with adequate
ventilation. Handle under an inert atmosphere. Store protected from
air. Discard contaminated shoes.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Do not store near
combustible materials. Keep container closed when not in use. Store
in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated
area away from incompatible substances. Corrosives area. Do not
expose to air. Store under an inert atmosphere.

**** 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. Use process
enclosure, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls
to control airborne levels.
Exposure Limits
CAS# 13477-32-2:
