Section 3. Hazards Identification
Acute Effects Routes of EntryAbsorbed through skin. Inhalation. Ingestion.
Skin Hazardous in case of skin contact (corrosive, permeator). Skin contact may produce burns.
Eyes Hazardous in case of eye contact (corrosive). Causes eye burns. Eye exposure may cause severe and permanent eye
injury (blindness).
Inhalation Hazardous in case of inhalation (lung irritant). Inhalation of the spray mist may produce severe irritation of respiratory
tract, characterized by coughing, choking, or shortness of breath. Can cause central nervous system depression.
Symptoms and signs include headaches, dizziness, fatigue, muscular weakness, drowsiness and, in extreme cases, loss
of consciousness. Medical Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure: Respiratory
Ingestion Harmful if swallowed. May cause burns to mouth, throat and stomach.
Chronic Effects The substance may be toxic to blood, kidneys, liver, upper respiratory tract, skin, eyes, central nervous
system (CNS). Repeated or prolonged exposure to the substance can produce target organs damage.
Repeated or prolonged contact with spray mist may produce chronic eye irritation and severe skin
irritation. Repeated or prolonged exposure to spray mist may produce respiratory tract irritation
leading to frequent attacks of bronchial infection. Over-exposure by inhalation or absorption can cause
central nervous system depression. Symptoms and signs include headaches, dizziness, fatigue,
muscular weakness, drowsiness and, in extreme cases, loss of consciousness.
Additional information : See Toxicological Information (section 11)
Section 4. First Aid Measures
Eye Contact Check for and remove any contact lenses. Immediately flush eyes with running water for at least 15
minutes, keeping eyelids open. 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. Wash clothing before reuse. Get medical attention immediately.
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give
Inhalation
oxygen. Get medical attention immediately.
Ingestion Do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to
an unconscious person. If affected person is conscious, give plenty of water to drink. Get medical
attention immediately.

Section 6. Accidental Release Measures
Spill Clean up Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Absorb with an inert material and place in an
appropriate waste disposal container. To clean the floor and all objects contaminated by this material, use
detergent. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and dispose of according to local and
regional authority requirements.
Section 7. Handling and Storage
Handling Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not ingest. Do not breathe vapor or mist. Keep container closed.
Use only with adequate ventilation. Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash contaminated clothing before
reusing.
Storage Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from incompatibles. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area.
Store between 40掳F - 120掳F. Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs. Keep out of the reach of
children.
Section 8. Exposure Controls, Personal Protection
Engineering Controls Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors
below their respective occupational exposure limits. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers
are proximal to the work-station location.
Personal Protection Protective Clothing (Pictograms)
Eyes Splash goggles.
Hands and Body Rubber gloves. Neoprene gloves.
Recommended: Chemical resistant apron.
Respiratory Use with adequate ventilation. Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne
concentrations of vapors below their respective occupational exposure limits. Wear appropriate respirator when
ventilation is inadequate.
