SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Threshold Limit Value:
NOT ESTABLISHED FOR MIXTURE. SEE SECTION II.
Effects of Overexposure:
-Acute(Short Term Exposure)
INGESTION MAY CAUSE GASTROINTESTINAL DISTURBANCES. MAY CAUSE SLIGHT SKIN IRRITATION. INHALATON
OF MIST MAY CAUSE MILD RESPIRATORY IRRITATION WITH COUGHING AND SNEEZING. MAY CAUSE MILD EYE
IRRITATION WITH POSSIBLE REDNESS.
-Chronic (Long Term Exposure)
DIRECT CONTACT WITH EYES FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME CAN CAUSE CORNEAL REDNESS. PROLONGED
UNDILUTED SKIN CONTACT MAY CAUSE REDDENING OF SKIN, IRRITATION LEADING POTENTIALLY TO DERMATITIS.
TARGET ORGANS: NONE. ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO PRIMARY ROUTE OF ENTRY INTO THE BODY, THE PRIMARY ROUTE
OF EXPOSURE IS SKIN CONTACT.
Primary Routes of Entry: Inhalation: Ingestion: Absorption:
Emergency and First Aid Procedures:
-Inhalation:
REMOVE FROM THE AREA TO FRESH AIR. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IF RESPIRATORY IRRITATION DEVELOPS OR IF
BREATHING BECOMES DIFFICULT.
-Eye Contact:
RINSE THE EYES WITH WATER. REMOVE ANY CONTACT LENSES AND CONTINUE FLUSHING WITH PLENTY OF WATER
FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IF IRRITATION DEVELOPS.
-Skin Contact:
WASH AFFECTED AREAS WITH PLENTY OF SOAP AND WATER FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IF
IRRITATION DEVELOPS.
-Ingestion:
GIVE 3 TO 4 GLASSES OF WATER, BUT DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. IF VOMITING OCCURS, GIVE FLUIDS AGAIN.
SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IF DISCOMFORT OCCURS.
