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

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Very toxic by inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed.
Causes severe burns.Hygroscopic (absorbs moisture from the
air).Corrosive.

Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes severe eye burns. May cause ulceration of the the cornea
with loss of vision
Skin:
May be fatal if absorbed through the skin. Causes severe burns with
delayed tissue destruction. May cause cyanosis of the extremities.
Ingestion:
May be fatal if swallowed. May cause liver and kidney damage. Causes
severe digestive tract burns with abdominal pain, vomiting, and
possible death. May cause effects similar to those for inhalation
exposure. May cause systemic effects.
Inhalation:
May be fatal if inhaled. Causes delayed lung injury. Inhalation of
high vapor concentrations may cause ulceration of nasal mucous and
possibly bronchospasm. Aspiration may lead to pulmonary edema. May
cause coughing, choking, chills, fever, tightness in the chest, and
cyanosis (bluish discoloration of skin due to deficient oxygenation
of the blood). Inhalation at high concentrations may cause CNS
depression and asphixiation.
Chronic:
Effects may be delayed.

**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****

Eyes:
Get medical aid immediately. Do NOT allow victim to rub eyes or keep
eyes closed. Spills of HF should be flushed until medical attention
arrives. SPEEDY ACTION IS CRITICAL! GET MEDICAL ATTENTION
IMMEDIATELY!
Skin:
Wash clothing before reuse. Destroy contaminated shoes. SPEEDY
ACTION IS CRITICAL, GET MEDICAL AID IMMEDIATELY. Spills of HF should
be flushed until medical attention arrives. SPEEDY ACTION IS
CRITICAL! GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical
aid immediately. SPEED IS ESSENTIAL. A DOCTOR MUST BE NOTIFIED AT
ONCE. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and
drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If breathing
is difficult, give oxygen. SPEED IS ESSENTIAL, OBTAIN MEDICAL AID
IMMEDIATELY. 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:
Antidote:
Skin or eye exposure should be treated with 25% Calcium gluconate
gel until burning ceases. May be necessary to administer
subcutaneously. Ingestion may be treated with milk, chewable Calcium
carbonate tablets or Milk of Magnesia.

**** 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. Combustible liquid.
Vapors may be heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and
collect in low or confined areas. Containers may explode when heated.
Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution.
Extinguishing Media:
Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers. In case of fire,
use carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder 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. Remove all sources of ignition. Absorb spill using
an absorbent, non-combustible material such as earth, sand, or
vermiculite. Do not use combustible materials such as sawdust. Use a
spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation.

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

Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Use only in a well-ventilated area. Do not get in
eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Empty containers retain product
residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep container
tightly closed. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not ingest
or inhale. Use only in a chemical fume hood. Discard contaminated
shoes. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or
expose empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames. Do not
breathe vapor.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of
ignition. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Corrosives
area. Do not store in metal or glass containers. Store protected
from moisture.

**** 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.
Exposure Limits
CAS# 73602-61-6:
United States OSHA: 2.5 mg/m3 TWA (as F) (listed under Fluorides

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:
A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29
CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European
Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace
conditions warrant respirator use.
