**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Toxic by inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed. Danger
of cumulative effects. May cause sensitization by inhalation and skin
contact. Risk of explosion if heated under confinement.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation and possible burns.
Skin:
Causes severe skin irritation. May be fatal if absorbed through the
skin. May cause skin sensitization, an allergic reaction, which
becomes evident upon re-exposure to this material. This material is
a vesicant, that is, it will induce blistering.
Ingestion:
May be fatal if swallowed. May cause severe gastrointestinal tract
irritation with nausea, vomiting and possible burns. May cause
central nervous system effects. Ingestion of large amounts of
fluoride may cause salivation, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain,
fever, labored breathing. Exposure to fluoride compounds can result
in systemic toxic effects on the heart, liver, and kidneys. It may
also deplete calcium levels in the body leading to hypocalcemia and
death. Acute oral toxicity tests have shown lethality with central
nervous system signs in mice.
Inhalation:
May cause allergic respiratory reaction. May cause severe irritation
of the respiratory tract with possible burns.
Chronic:
Chronic inhalation and ingestion may cause chronic fluoride
poisoning (fluorosis) characterized by weight loss, weakness,
anemia, brittle bones, and stiff joints. Repeated exposure may cause
central nervous system damage. Chronic exposure to fluoride compounds
may cause systemic toxicity.
**** 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:
POISON material. In case of contact, get medical aid immediately.
Immediately flush eyes or skin with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash
clothing before reuse. Destroy contaminated shoes.
Ingestion:
POISON material. If swallowed, get medical aid immediately. Only
induce vomiting if directed to do so by medical personnel. 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:
**** 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. Violently
decomposes when heated under confinement.
Extinguishing Media:
Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam.
**** 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. Provide
ventilation. Evacuate unnecessary personnel. Keep unnecessary and
unprotected personnel away.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Do not breathe dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Do not
get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Use only with adequate
ventilation.
Storage:
Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
**** 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.
Exposure Limits
CAS# 70-34-8:
Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes:
Wear chemical splash goggles.
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.
