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

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Harmful by inhalation and if swallowed.

Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation and possible burns. May cause chemical
conjunctivitis.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation and possible burns.
Ingestion:
Harmful if swallowed. The barium ion is a muscle poison causing
stimulation and then paralysis. Initial symptoms are
gastrointestinal, including nausea, vomiting, colic, and diarrhea,
followed by myocardial and general muscular stimulation with
tingling in the extremities. The barium ion is a muscle poison
causing stimulation and then paralysis. Initial symptoms are
gastrointestinal, including nausea, vomiting, colic, and diarrhea,
followed by myocardial and general muscular stimulation with
tingling in the extremities. The barium ion is a muscle poison
causing stimulation and then paralysis. Initial symptoms are
gastrointestinal, including nausea, vomiting, colic, and diarrhea,
followed by myocardial and general muscular stimulation with
tingling in the extremities.
Inhalation:
May be harmful if inhaled. Can produce delayed pulmonary edema.
Causes respiratory tract irritation with possible burns.
Chronic:
Causes respiratory tract irritation with possible burns.

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

Eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid. 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. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing
before reuse.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical
aid. 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. Get medical
aid. 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:
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.

**** 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. Substance
is noncombustible.
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. Avoid generating
dusty conditions. Provide ventilation.

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

Handling:
Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes,
skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion
and inhalation. Use with adequate ventilation. Wash clothing before
reuse.
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 general or
local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below the
permissible exposure limits.
