**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Harmful if swallowed. May cause sensitization by inhalation and skin
contact. Contact with combustible material may cause fire.Hygroscopic
(absorbs moisture from the air).
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. May cause skin sensitization, an allergic
reaction, which becomes evident upon re-exposure to this material.
Ingestion:
May cause irritation of the digestive tract. May be harmful if
swallowed.
Inhalation:
Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause asthmatic attacks due
to allergic sensitization of the respiratory tract.
Chronic:
Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause allergic reactions in
sensitive individuals.
**** 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.
Skin:
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with soap and plenty of
water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if
symptoms occur. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
If swallowed, do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by
medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person. Get medical aid.
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. Strong oxidizer. Contact with other material may
cause fire. Use water with caution and in flooding amounts.
Decomposes at high temperatures, resulting in toxic and corrosive
products.
Extinguishing Media:
Deluge with water. Do not use carbon dioxide or other gas filled
fire extinguishers; they will have no effect.
**** 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. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide ventilation.
Keep combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.,) away from spilled
material.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid
contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed.
Keep from contact with clothing and other combustible materials. Do
not breathe dust. Use only with adequate ventilation. Inform laundry
personnel of contaminant's hazards. Do not take working clothes
home.
Storage:
Do not store near combustible materials. Keep container closed when
not in use. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool,
dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Keep
away from acids. Store protected from moisture. Avoid storage on
wood floors.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Use process enclosure, local exhaust ventilation, or other
engineering controls to control airborne levels below recommended
exposure limits. Facilities storing or utilizing this material should
be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower.

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:
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.
