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

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Toxic if swallowed. Very toxic by inhalation. Irritating to
respiratory system and skin. Risk of serious damage to eyes. May
cause sensitization by skin contact. May cause cancer by inhalation.
Toxic : danger of serious damage to health by prolonged exposure
through inhalation.

Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation and possible burns. May cause chemical
conjunctivitis and corneal damage.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. May cause skin sensitization, an allergic
reaction, which becomes evident upon re-exposure to this material.
Concentrated nitric acid dyes human skin yellow on contact.
Ingestion:
Causes gastrointestinal tract irritation.
Inhalation:
Causes respiratory tract irritation.
Chronic:
Exposure to high concentrations of nitric acid vapor may cause
pneuomonitis and pulmonary edema which may be fatal. Symptoms may or
may not be delayed. Continued exposure to the vapor & mist of nitric
acid may result in a chronic bronchitis, & more severe exposure
results in a chemical pneumonitis. The vapor & mists of nitric acid
may erode the teeth, particularly affecting the canines & incisors.
Chronic beryllium disease, an immunologically mediated response
occurring after a latent period ranging from a few weeks to many
years, causes difficult breathing on exertion, weight loss,
nonproductive cough, fatigue, chest pain, anorexia, and weakness.

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

Eyes:
Get medical aid immediately. Do NOT allow victim to rub eyes or keep
eyes closed. Extensive irrigation with water is required (at least 30
minutes).
Skin:
Get medical aid immediately. Immediately flush skin with plenty of
water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing
and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Destroy contaminated shoes.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical
aid immediately. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert,
rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
Inhalation:
Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh
air immediately. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Do NOT use
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply
artificial respiration using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device
such as a bag and a mask.
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. May react
with metal surfaces to form flammable and explosive hydrogen gas.
Approach fire from upwind to avoid hazardous vapors and toxic
decomposition products. Concentrated nitric acid is a strong oxidizer
and contact with other material may cause fire.
Extinguishing Media:
Use extinguishing media most appropriate for the surrounding fire.

**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****

General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead to waterways.
Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
Equipment section. Absorb spill using an absorbent, non-combustible
material such as earth, sand, or vermiculite. Do not use combustible
materials such as sawdust. Provide ventilation.

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

Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Use with adequate ventilation. Discard
contaminated shoes. Avoid breathing vapor or mist. Do not use with
metal spatula or other metal items. Do not get in eyes. Avoid
contact with skin and clothing.
Storage:
Keep container closed when not in use. Keep away from metals. Store
away from alkalies.

**** 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. Use a corrosion-resistant ventilation
system.
