**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Not available.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause eye irritation.
Skin:
May cause mild skin irritation. May cause skin sensitization, an
allergic reaction, which becomes evident upon re-exposure to this
material. Low hazard for usual industrial handling.
Ingestion:
Low hazard for usual industrial handling. May cause gastric
disturbances and electrolytic imbalance.
Inhalation:
May cause allergic respiratory reaction. May cause respiratory tract
irritation. Low hazard for usual industrial handling.
Chronic:
May cause cancer according to animal studies.
**** 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:
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.
Ingestion:
If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
Wash mouth out with water. Get medical aid if irritation or symptoms
occur.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not
breathing, give artificial respiration. Get medical aid if cough or
other symptoms appear.
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. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases
may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Use water
spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Containers may explode
when heated.
Extinguishing Media:
Substance is noncombustible; use agent most appropriate to
extinguish surrounding fire. For small fires, use dry chemical,
carbon dioxide, water spray 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:
Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth),
then place in suitable container. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and
ditches which lead to waterways. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Provide
ventilation.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash hands before eating. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep container
tightly closed. Use with adequate ventilation.
Storage:
Store in a cool, dry place. No special precautions indicated.
**** 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.
