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

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Toxic if swallowed. Limited evidence of a carcinogenic effect.Cancer
suspect agent.

Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Contact with eyes may cause severe irritation, and possible eye
burns.
Skin:
May cause severe skin irritation. May cause dermatitis. May be
harmful if absorbed through the skin.
Ingestion:
Harmful if swallowed. May cause digestive tract disturbances. May
form methemoglobin which in sufficient concentration causes cyanosis
(bluish discoloration of skin due to deficient oxygenation of the
blood).
Inhalation:
May cause respiratory tract irritation. May be harmful if inhaled.
Chronic:
Possible cancer hazard based on tests with laboratory animals.

**** 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
immediately.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Remove contaminated clothing and shoes.
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:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If breathing
is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid. If breathing has ceased
apply artificial respiration using oxygen and a suitable mechanical
device such as a bag and a mask. Do not use mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; induce
artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a
one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device.
Notes to Physician:
Effects may be delayed. Treat symptomatically and supportively. For
methemoglobinemia, administer oxygen alone or with Methylene Blue
depending on the methemoglobin concentration in the blood.
Antidote:
Methylene blue, alone or in combination with oxygen is indicated as
a treatment in nitrite induced methemoglobinemia.

**** 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. Decomposes at high temperatures, resulting in toxic
and corrosive products. Containers may explode when heated.
Extinguishing Media:
Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or chemical 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:
Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
Equipment section. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide
ventilation. Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable,
dry disposal container.

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

Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Do not
get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Keep container tightly closed.
Do not breathe dust. Use only with adequate ventilation.
Storage:
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible
substances. Poison room locked. 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. See 29CFR 1910.1003 for specific
regulatory requirements applying to areas containing a listed
carcinogen, signs, training, reports, and medical surveillance
programs.
Exposure Limits
CAS# 60-11-7:
United States OSHA: ; (Cancer suspect agent - see 29 CFR 1910.101

Personal Protective Equipment

Eyes:
Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical
safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face
protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European
Standard EN166.
Skin:
Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin
exposure.
Clothing:
Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin
exposure.
Respirators:
Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29
CFR 1910.134 or European Standard EN 149. Use a
NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149 approved
respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if
irritation or other symptoms are experienced.
