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

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Irritating to eyes.Light sensitive.Moisture sensitive.

Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation.
Skin:
May cause skin irritation. Chronic ingestion of iodides during
pregnancy has resulted in fetal death, severe goiter, and cretinoid
appearance of the newborn.
Ingestion:
Causes gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea. Chronic ingestion of iodides during pregnancy has resulted
in fetal death, severe goiter, and cretinoid appearance of the
newborn.
Inhalation:
May cause respiratory tract irritation.
Chronic:
Chronic exposure can lead to iodism characterized by salivation,
nasal discharge, sneezing, conjunctivitis, fever, laryngitis,
bronchitis, stomatitis, and skin rashes. Chronic ingestion of iodides
during pregnancy has resulted in fetal death, severe goiter, and
cretinoid appearance of the newborn.

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

Eyes:
Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin:
Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while
removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if
irritation develops or persists. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. 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.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not
breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical aid if cough or other symptoms appear.
Notes to Physician:

**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****

General Information:
During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by
thermal decomposition or combustion. 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.
Extinguishing Media:
Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Do NOT get water
inside 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:
Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal
container. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the
Protective Equipment section. Avoid generating dusty conditions.
Provide ventilation. Do not get water inside containers.

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

Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Use with adequate ventilation.
Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes,
skin, and clothing. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Store protected
from light. Do not allow contact with water. Keep from contact with
moist air and steam.
Storage:
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible
substances. Store protected from moisture. Store protected from
light.

**** 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
