CONCENTRATIONS OF 0.1% OR GREATER THAT ARE CARCINOGENS OR SUSPECT
CARCINOGENS.
Signs And Symptions Of Overexposure: INGESTION MAY RESULT IN NAUSEA, VOMITING
AND BURNS ESPECIALLY OF THE ESOPHAGUS.
First Aid: EYES-FLUSH EYES WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MIN,
LIFTING UPPER & LOWER LIDS INTERMITTENTLY. SEE AN OPTHAMOLOGIST.
SKIN-WASH WITH WATER. IF IRRITATION OCCURS & PERSISTS, CALL A PHYSICIA N.
INHALATION-REMOVE FROM EXPOSURE. IF BREATHING DIFFICULTY OR DISCOMFORT
OCCURS, OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION. INGESTION-RINSE MOUTH WITH WATER. DILUTE BY
GIVING 1 OR 2 GLASSES OF WATER. DO NOT INDUCE VO MITING. NEVER GIVE ANYTHING
BY MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON. SEE A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.
