3. Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview:
DANGER! CORROSIVE. CAUSES SEVERE EYE IRRITATION AND
POSSIBLE BURNS. CAUSES IRRITATION TO SKIN AND
RESPIRATORY TRACT. MAY BE HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED OR
ABSORBED THROUGH SKIN..
Potential Health Effects
Inhalation:
Inhalation of dust is irritating to the mucous membrane and upper respiratory
tract. May cause coughing, sore throat, shortness of breath.
Ingestion:
Causes irritation to the gastrointestinal tract. Symptoms may include nausea,
vomiting and diarrhea. May cause mild burning of mouth, throat, and stomach.
Skin Contact:
Causes irritation to skin. Symptoms include redness, itching, and pain. May be
absorbed through the skin. Wet skin may exacerbate skin exposure.
Eye Contact:
Causes severe eye irritation with redness and pain. May cause burns. May
cause conjunctivitis or corneal damage.
Chronic Exposure:
Abnormalities of kidney function with protein in the urine may develop from
chronic exposure.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:
No information found.
4. First Aid Measures
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is
difficult, give oxygen. Call a physician.
Ingestion:
Induce vomiting immediately as directed by medical personnel. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact:
D&J Chemicals Co., Ltd.
Remove any contaminated clothing. Wash skin with soap or mild detergent and
water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention if irritation develops or
persists.
Eye Contact:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting
lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Fire:
As with most organic solids, fire is possible at elevated temperatures or by
contact with an ignition source.
Explosion:
Fine dust dispersed in air in sufficient concentrations, and in the presence of an
ignition source is a potential dust explosion hazard.
Fire Extinguishing Media:
Water spray, dry chemical, alcohol foam, or carbon dioxide.
Special Information:
In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved
self-contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in the pressure
demand or other positive pressure mode.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Remove all sources of ignition. Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate
personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Spills: Clean up spills
in a manner that does not disperse dust into the air. Use non-sparking tools and
equipment. Reduce airborne dust and prevent scattering by moistening with
water. Pick up spill for recovery or disposal and place in a closed container. US
Regulations (CERCLA) require reporting spills and releases to soil, water and
air in excess of reportable quantities. The toll free number for the US Coast
Guard National Response Center is (800) 424-8802..
7. Handling and Storage
Keep in a tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Protect
against physical damage. Isolate from incompatible substances. 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.
D&J Chemicals Co., Ltd.
Avoid dust formation and control ignition sources. Employ grounding, venting
and explosion relief provisions in accord with accepted engineering practices
in any process capable of generating dust and/or static electricity. Empty only
into inert or non-flammable atmosphere. Emptying contents into a non-inert
atmosphere where flammable vapors may be present could cause a flash fire or
explosion due to electrostatic discharge.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Airborne Exposure Limits:
None established.
Ventilation System:
A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee
exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred
because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source,
preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Please refer to the
ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended
Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):
For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and
engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator (NIOSH type N95
or better filters) may be worn. If oil particles (e.g. lubricants, cutting fluids,
glycerine, etc.) are present, use a NIOSH type R or P filter. For emergencies or
instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-face
positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING: Air-purifying respirators
do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Skin Protection:
Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron
or coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where dusting or splashing
of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities
in work area.
9. Stability and Reactivity
Stability:
Stable under ordinary conditions of use and storage.
Hazardous Decomposition Products:
Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide may form when heated to decomposition.
