Section 3 - Hazards Identification

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW

Appearance: light green solid.
Caution! May cause respiratory tract irritation. May cause severe eye and skin irritation with possible burns. May
cause severe digestive tract irritation with possible burns. Hygroscopic (absorbs moisture from the air). Air sensitive.
The toxicological properties of this material have not been fully investigated.
Target Organs: Kidneys, central nervous system, liver.


Potential Health Effects
Eye: Contact with eyes may cause severe irritation, and possible eye burns.
Skin: Exposure may cause irritation and possible burns.
Ingestion: May cause severe gastrointestinal tract irritation with nausea, vomiting and possible burns. Acute
exposure to excessive levels of ferrous compounds can cause liver and kidney damage. May cause CNS irritation. Iron
compounds cause hemorrhage and necrosis of the stomach with shock, severe diarrhea and possible coma. Delayed
symptoms such as acidosis, shock, rapid breathing, liver injury and possible death may occur.
Inhalation: May cause respiratory tract irritation.
Chronic: Chronic ingestion may cause effects similar to those of acute ingestion.


Section 4 - First Aid Measures

Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower
eyelids. Get medical aid imme diately.
Skin: Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and
shoes. Get medical aid if irritation develops or persists.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid immediately.
Inhalation: Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not
breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively.
Antidote: The use of Deferoxamine as a chelating agent should be determined only by qualified medical personnel.
