CAUSES EYE AND SKIN BURNS.
CAUSES RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION.
MAY BE HARMFUL IF INHALED.
Routes of Entry Dermal contact. Eye contact. Inhalation. Ingestion.
Potential Acute Health Effects
Eyes Hazardous in case of eye contact (corrosive). Causes eye burns.
Skin Extremely hazardous in case of skin contact (permeator). May be fatal if absorbed. Hazardous in case of skin
contact (corrosive). Skin contact produces burns.
Inhalation Hazardous in case of inhalation (lung irritant).
Ingestion Hazardous in case of ingestion.
Potential Chronic Health Effects
Carcinogenic Effects This material is not known to cause cancer in animals or humans.
Additional information See Toxicological Information (section 11)
Medical Conditions Repeated or prolonged contact with spray mist may produce chronic eye irritation and severe skin irritation.
Aggravated by Repeated or prolonged exposure to spray mist may produce respiratory tract irritation leading to frequent attacks
Overexposure: of bronchial infection. Repeated exposure to a highly toxic material may produce general deterioration of health
by an accumulation in one or many human organs.
Section 4. First Aid Measures
Eye Contact Check for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes. Cold water may be used. Get medical attention immediately.
Skin Contact In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing
contaminated clothing and shoes. Cold water may be used. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes
before reuse. Get medical attention immediately.
Inhalation If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
Get medical attention immediately.
Ingestion If swallowed, do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. Get medical
attention immediately.

Section 6. Accidental Release Measures
Small Spill and Leak Dilute with water and mop up, or absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate waste disposal
container.
Large Spill and Leak Stop leak if without risk. Absorb with DRY earth, sand or other non -combustible material. Do not get water
inside container. Do not touch spilled material. Use water spray curtain to divert vapor drift. Use water spray to
reduce vapors. Prevent entry into sewers, basements or confined areas; dike if needed. Call for assistance on
disposal. Be careful that the product is not present at a concentration level above TLV. Check TLV on the MSDS
and with local authorities.
