Section 3. Health Hazard Identification
Inhalation? Yes Skin? Yes Ingestion? Yes
Route(s) of Entry:
IRRITANT. Irritating to eyes, respiratory system, and skin.
Health Hazards:
(Acute and Chronic)
IARC Monographs? No OSHA Regulated? No
Carcinogenicity:
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure: Irritant if inhaled, coughing and breathing difficulties may be observed. Symptoms of
ingestion can include nausea and vomiting. Can result in mild irritation if contact with skin for several hours. Contact with
eye causes irritation, redness, and pain.
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure: Chronic exposure can cause dermatitis. May be harmful if
inhaled, causing respiratory tract irritation. May be harmful if absorbed through the skin.
Section 4. First Aid Measures
Ingestion: If swallowed, wash out mouth with water, provided person is conscious. Never give anything
Emergency /
by mouth to an unconscious person. Seek medical attention.
First Aid
Procedures: Inhalation: If inhaled, supply fresh air or oxygen. Seek medical attention. If not breathing, apply artificial
respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
Eye Contact: Rinse opened eye for at least 15 minutes under running water, lifting lower and upper
eyelids occasionally. Seek medical attention.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Immediately wash with plenty of soap and water for at
least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse.
Section 5. Fire and Explosion Hazard Data
Flash Point (Method Used): N/A Flammable Limits: LEL 鈥? N/A
UEL 鈥? N/A
Extinguishing Media: Use alcohol foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide. Water may be ineffective.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Firefighters should wear protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus.
The product itself does not burn.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: During heating or in case of fire, poisonous gases are produced. Fine dust
dispersed in air in sufficient concentrations, and in the presence of an ignition source, is a potential dust explosion hazard.

Section 6. Accidental Release Measures
Personal Precautions: Shut off all sources of ignition, ventilate spill area. Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves, and
eye protection. Wear self-containing breathing apparatus, rubber boots, and heavy rubber gloves. Place contaminated
material in a chemical waste container.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent dispersion of material. Do not allow to enter drains or water courses. Water runoff
can cause environmental damage.
Clean-up Methods: Contact safety officer and ventilate area. Absorb spill with inert material, including dry-lime, sand, or
soda ash, then place into a chemical waste container using non-sparking tools. Wash spill site.
Section 7. Handling and Storage
Handling: Protect against physical damage. Ensure good ventilation / exhaustion. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and
clothing. Avoid prolonged or repeated exposure. Do not use if skin is cut or scratched.
Storage: Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from incompatible material. Storage area should be cool, dry and well
ventilated. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues.
Other Precautions: Remove contaminated clothing immediately. Ensure good ventilation. Prevent dust formation.
Section 8. Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
ACGIH TLV: N/A
OES: N/A
Engineering Measures: Respiratory protection is not required. Where protection from nuisance levels of dusts are
desired, use type N95 (US) or type P1 (EN 143) dust masks. Use respirators and components tested and approved under
appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU). Proper ventilation, safety shower, and eye bath
required.
Respiratory Protection (Specify Type): With sufficient ventilation, breathing apparatus is not necessary. In the event of
possible spill / exposure, use dust mask to EN 149 FFP2S.
Local Exhaust: 50 鈥? 100 CFM Special: Safety shower and eye wash.
Ventilation:
Protective Gloves: Compatible chemical-resistant gloves. Eye Protection: Safety glasses or chemical goggles to EN
166, 167, and 168.
Other Protective Clothing or Equipment: Uniform, lab coat, or disposable lab wear.
Work / Hygienic Practices: Follow the usual precautionary measure for handling chemicals / powder. Keep away from
food and beverages. Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing.
