SNEEZING,COUGHING, PAIN, NAUSEA, VOMITING, DIFFICULTY IN BREATHING.
First Aid: GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY. EYE/SKIN: IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH
WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. HOLD EYELIDS OPEN. SEE PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.
SKIN: IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER WHILE REM OVING CONTAMINATED
CLOTHING AND/OR SHOESAND THOROUGHLY WASH WITH SOAP AND WATER. INHALED:
REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. PROVIDE OXYGEN/CPR IF NEEDED. ORAL: DO NOT INDUCE
VOMITING. RINSE OUT MOUTH WITH WATER. DRINK LARGE AMOUNT OF WATER OR MILK.
NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON.
=======================================================
Handling and Disposal
=======================================================
Spill Release Procedures: DESIGN AND PRECTICE A PHOSPHORIC ACID SPILL CONTROL
AND COUNTERMEASURE PLAN. NOTIFY SAFETY PERSONNEL. EVACUATE ALL UNNECESSARY
PERSONNEL FROM THE AREA. PROVIDE ADEQUATE VENTILATION. USE SKIN AND EYE P
ROTECTION. ABSORB SPIILED ACID WITH ALKALINE MATERIAL AND PLACE IN DISPOSAL
DRUM. DO NOT RELEASE TO SEWER OR WATERWAY.
Neutralizing Agent: SODA ASH AND LIME MAY BE USED AS NEUTRALIZING AGENTS FOR
MATERIAL THAT CANNOT BE SALVAGED.
Waste Disposal Methods: CONTACT YOUR SUPPLIER OR A LICENSED CONTRACTOR FOR
DETAILED RECOMMENDATIONS. FOLLOW APPLICABLE FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL
REGULATIONS.
Handling And Storage Precautions: STORE IN CLOSED CONTAINERS IN A COOL, DRY,
WELL-VENTILATED AREA WITH GOOD DRAINAGE AWAY FROM POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARDS,
REACTIVE MATERIALS, AND METAL POWDERS. PROTECT CONTAINERS FROM PHYSICAL
DAMAGE.
Other Precautions: NEVER EATE, DRINK, OR SMOKE IN WORK AREA. PRACTICE GOOD
PERSONAL HYGIENE AFTER USING THIS MATERIAL, ESPECIALLY BEFORE EATING,
DRINKING, SMOKING, USING THE TOILET, OR APPLYING COSMETICS. PREVENT ALL CO
NTACT WITH THIS MATERIAL OR INHALATION OF ITS VAPORS OR REACTION PRODUCTS.

Fire and Explosion Hazard Information
=======================================================
Flash Point Text: NONE
Lower Limits: NOT REPORTED
Upper Limits: NOT REPORTED
Extinguishing Media: USE WATER TO EXTINGUISH PHOSPHORIC ACID FIRES.USE
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA APPROPRIATE FOR SURROUNDING FIRE.USE WATER ABUNDANTLY TO
CONTROL HEAT AND ACID BUILDUP.
Fire Fighting Procedures: PHOSPHORIC ACID IS HAZARDOUS IN FIRE SINCE TOXIC
VAPORMAY FORM, WEAR SELFCONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS WITH FULL FACEPIECE
OPERATED IN PRESSURE-DEMAND OR POSITIVE-PRESSURE MODE. AVOID SKIN AND EYE EXP
OSURE. COOL CONTAINERS AND SEALED TANK WITH WATER SPRAY TO AVOID RUPTURE. DO
NOT RELEASE RUNOFF TO SEWERS OR WATERWAYS.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard: PHOSPHORIC ACID IS NONCOMBUSTIBLE, BUT CONTACT
WITH COMMON METALS MAY LIBERATE HYDROGEN, A FLAMMABLE GAS THAT READILY FORMS
EXPLOSIVE MIXTURES WITH AIR.
=======================================================
Control Measures
=======================================================
Respiratory Protection: FOLLOW OSHA RESPIRATOR REGULATION (29CFR1910.134) AND,
WEAR NIOSH-APPROVED RESPIRATOR. FOR EMERGENCY OR NON-ROUTINE OPERTIONS WEAR A
SCBA, AIR-PURIFYING RESPIRATORS DO NOT PROTECT WORKERS IN OXYGEN-DE FICIENT
ATMOSPHERES.
Ventilation: PROVIDE GENERAL OR LOCAL EXPLOSION-PROOF VENTILATION SYSTEMS TO
MAINTAIN AIRBORNE CONCENTRATIONS BELOW OSHA PELS,ACGIH TLVS,AND NIOSH REL
Protective Gloves: IMPERVIOUS GLOVES ( NEOPRENE AND NITRILE GLOVES)
Eye Protection: SAFETY GLASSES/CHEMICAL SPLASH GOGGLES, NO CONTACT LENSE IN THE
WORK AREA
Other Protective Equipment: EYE WASH STATION & QUICK DRENCH SHOWERS AND WASHING
FACILITIES. USE IMPERVIOUS BOOTS, APRONS, AND GAUNTLETS TO PREVENT SKIN
CONTACT.
Work Hygienic Practices: OBSERVE GOOD PERSONAL HYGIENE PRACTICES AND
RECOMMENDED PROCEDURES. DO NOT WEAR CONTAMINATED CLOTHING OR FOOTWEAR.PREVENT
ALL CONTACT WITH THIS FLAMMABLE SOLID OR INHILATION OF ITS VAPORS
