**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
May cause sensitization by skin contact. May cause cancer.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Not available.
Skin:
Not available.
Ingestion:
Not available.
Inhalation:
Not available.
Chronic:
Contains formaldehyde which can cause cancer in humans. There is
sufficient evidence that formaldehyde causes nasopharyngeal cancer in
humans, a rare cancer in developed countries. There is limited
evidence that formaldehyde causes cancer of the nasal cavity and
paranasal sinuses and strong but not sufficient evidence for
leukemia.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
Not available.
Skin:
Not available.
Ingestion:
Not available.
Inhalation:
Not available.
Notes to Physician:
**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****
General Information:
Not available.
Extinguishing Media:
Not available.
**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth),
then place in suitable container. Provide ventilation.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Use only with adequate ventilation.
Storage:
Not available.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne
concentrations below the permissible exposure limits. See 29CFR
1910.1048 for regulatory requirements pertaining to all occupational
exposures to formaldehyde, i.e., from formaldehyde gas, its
solutions, and materials that release formaldehyde.
