===================== Hazards Identification =====================
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: INHALATION: MAY CAUSE MILD
IRRITATION TO THE RESPIRATORY TRACT. INGESTION: PHOSPHATES ARE
SLOWLY AND INCOMPLETELY ABSORBED WHEN INGESTED, AND SELDOM RESULT
IN SYSTEMIC EFFECTS. SUCH EFFECTS, HO WEVER, HAVE OCCURRED.
SYMPTOMS MAY INCLUDE VOMITING, LETHARGY, DIARRHEA, BLOOD CHEMISTRY
EFFECTS, CARDIAC EFFECT AND CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS. THE
TOXICITY OF PHOSPHATES IS BECAUSE OF THEIR ABIL ITY TO SEQUESTER
CALCIUM. ACUTE POTASSIUM INTOXICATION BY MOUTH IS RARE BECAUSE
LARGE SINGLE DOSES USUALLY INDUCE VOMITING AND BECAUSE IN THE
ABSENCE OF PRE-EXISTING KIDNEY DAMAGE, POTASSIUM IS RAPIDL Y
EXCRETED. (EFTS OF OVEREXP)
Effects of Overexposure:HLTH HAZ: POTASSIUM POISONING CAN RESULT IN
HEART EFFECTS, CHANGES IN RESPIRATION RATE, TINGLING IN THE
EXTREMITIES, HEAVINESS IN THE LIMBS, NAUSEA AND DIARRHEA. SKIN:
IRRITANT DUE TO ITS ACIDIC NATUR E. MAY CAUSE INFLAMMATION AND PAIN
ON PROLONGED CONTACT, ESPECIALLY WITH MOIST SKIN. EYE: MAY CAUSE
IRRITATION, REDNESS AND PAIN. CHRONIC: MAY SEQUESTER CALCIUM AND
CAUSE CALCIUM PHOSPHATE DEPOSITS IN THE KIDNEYS.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH IMPAIRED KIDNEY
FUNCTIONS MAY BE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO THE EFFECTS OF THE SUBSTANCE.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION FOR
ANY BREATHING DIFFICULTY. INGEST: IF SWALLOWED, GIVE SEVERAL
GLASSES OF WATER TO DRINK TO DILUTE. IF LARGE AMTS WERE
SWALLOWED/SYMPS OCCUR, G ET MED ADVICE. NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY
MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON. SKIN: IMMED FLUSH W/PLENTY OF WATER
FOR AT LEAST 15 MIN. REMOVE CONTAMD CLTHG & SHOES. WASH CLOTHING
BEFORE REUSE. THOROUGHLY CLEA N SHOES BEFORE REUSE. GET MED ATTN IF
IRRIT DEVELOPS. EYES: IMMED FLUSH W/PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15
MINUTES, LIFTING UPPER & LOWER EYELIDS OCCASIONALLY. GET MED ATTN
IF IRRIT PERSISTS.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Extinguishing Media:USE ANY MEANS SUITABLE FOR EXTINGUISHING
SURROUNDING FIRE.
Fire Fighting Procedures:USE NIOSH APPROVED SCBA & FULL PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT .
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:NOT CONSIDERED TO BE A FIRE OR AN
EXPLOSION HAZARD.
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:VENTILATE AREA OF LEAK OR SPILL. WEAR
APPROPRIATE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AS SPECIFIED IN SECTION
8. SPILLS: PICK UP AND PLACE IN A SUITABLE CONTAINER FOR
RECLAMATION OR DISPOSAL, USING A METHOD THAT DOES NOT GENERATE
DUST.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:KEEP IN A TIGHTLY CLOSED CONTAINER,
STORE IN A COOL, DRY, VENTILATED AREA. PROTECT AGAINST PHYSICAL
DAMAGE. CONTAINERS OF THIS MATERIAL MAY BE HAZARDOUS WHEN EMPTY
SINCE THEY RETAIN PRODUCT RESIDUES ( DUST, SOLIDS); OBSERVE ALL
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS LISTED FOR THE PRODUCT.
Other Precautions:OTHER INFO: BRTHG DFLTY. IN CASE OF CONT, IMMED FLUSH
EYES/SKIN W/PLENTY OF H*2O FOR AT LEAST 15 MIN. GET MED ATTN IF
IRRIT DEVELOPS/ PERSISTS. IF SWALLOWED, GIVE SEV GLASSES OF H*2O TO
DRINK TO DILUT E. IF LRG AMTS WERE SWALLOWED/SYMP OCCUR, GET MED
ADVICE. NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN UNCON P ERS.
