Section 3 - Hazards
Identification |
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: clear. Caution! May cause respiratory and
digestive tract irritation. May cause skin irritation. May cause severe eye
irritation and possible injury.
Target Organs: No data
found.
Potential Health Effects
Eye: Produces irritation, characterized by a burning
sensation, redness, tearing, inflammation, and possible corneal injury. Vapors
may cause eye irritation.
Skin: May cause skin irritation.
May cause skin discoloration. May cause reddening of the skin.
Ingestion: May cause irritation of the digestive tract. May
lead to distention of the esophagus and stomach.
Inhalation: May cause respiratory tract irritation.
Irritation may lead to chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema.
Chronic: No information found.
|
Section 4 - First Aid
Measures |
Eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least
15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin: Get medical aid if irritation develops or persists.
Wash clothing before reuse. Flush skin with plenty of soap and water.
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.
Inhalation: Remove
from exposure to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial
respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid. Do NOT use
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
Notes to Physician: Treat
symptomatically and supportively.
Antidote: None reported.
|
Section 5 - Fire
Fighting Measures |
General
Information: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus
in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective
gear. Non-combustible, substance itself does not burn but may decompose upon
heating to produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic fumes.
Extinguishing Media: Use extinguishing media most
appropriate for the surrounding fire. Use flooding quantities of water.
|
Section 6 -
Accidental Release Measures |
General
Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in
Section 8.
Spills/Leaks: Absorb spill with inert material
(e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth), then place in suitable container. Avoid
runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead to waterways. Clean up spills
immediately, observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Provide
ventilation.
|
Section 7 - Handling
and Storage |
Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Use with
adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep
container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation.
Storage: Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a
cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
|
Section 8 - Exposure
Controls, Personal Protection |
Engineering
Controls: Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be
equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate ventilation
to keep airborne concentrations low.
