**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Flammable. Causes severe burns.Corrosive.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Contact with liquid or vapor causes severe burns and possible
irreversible eye damage.
Skin:
Causes skin burns. May be harmful if absorbed through the skin.
Contact with the skin may cause blackening and hyperkeratosis of the
skin of the hands.
Ingestion:
May cause severe and permanent damage to the digestive tract. Causes
gastrointestinal tract burns. Causes severe pain, nausea, vomiting,
diarrhea, and shock.
Inhalation:
Effects may be delayed. Causes chemical burns to the respiratory
tract. Exposure may lead to bronchitis, pharyngitis, and dental
erosion. May be absorbed through the lungs.
Chronic:
Chronic exposure can lead to iodism characterized by salivation,
nasal discharge, sneezing, conjunctivitis, fever, laryngitis,
bronchitis, stomatitis, and skin rashes. Chronic exposure to acetic
acid may cause erosion of dental enamel, bronchitis, eye irritation,
darkening of the skin, and chronic inflammation of the respiratory
tract. Acetic acid can cause occupational asthma. One case of a
delayed asthmatic response to glacial acetic acid has been reported
in a person with bronchial asthma. Skin sensitization to acetic acid
is rare, but has occurred.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for
at least 15 minutes. Get medical aid immediately.
Skin:
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for
at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Get medical aid immediately. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Get medical aid immediately.
If victim is fully conscious, give a cupful of water. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Inhalation:
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial
respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid.
Notes to Physician:
Persons with pre-existing skin disorders or impaired respiratory or
pulmonary function may be at increased risk to the effects of this
substance. Treat symptomatically and supportively.
**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****
General Information:
Vapors may form an explosive mixture with air. Use water spray to
keep fire-exposed containers cool. Wear appropriate protective
clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes. Wear a self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCBA) to prevent contact with thermal
decomposition products. Reacts with most metals to form highly
flammable hydrogen gas which can form explosive mixtures with air.
Flammable liquid and vapor. May be ignited by friction, heat,
sparks, or flame. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel to a
source of ignition and flash back. Vapors can spread along the
ground and collect in low or confined areas.
Extinguishing Media:
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or
alcohol-resistant foam. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed
containers. For large fires, use water spray, fog or
alcohol-resistant foam.
**** 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. Wash area with soap and water. Use
water spray to disperse the gas/vapor. Remove all sources of
ignition. Use a spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation. A vapor
suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid
and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep away from heat, sparks and
flame. Do not get on skin or in eyes. Do not ingest or inhale.
Discard contaminated shoes. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze,
solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or
open flames. Use only with adequate ventilation.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep from freezing. Keep
from contact with oxidizing materials. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Do not store
near alkaline substances. Acetic acid should be kept above its
freezing point of 62F(17C) to allow it to be handled as a liquid.
It will contract slightly on freezing. Freezing and thawing does not
affect product quality.
**** 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.
