Identification |
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: yellow to yellow-orange. Danger! Oxidizer.
Causes eye and skin irritation. Causes digestive and respiratory tract
irritation. May cause kidney damage. May cause central nervous system effects.
This substance has caused adverse reproductive and fetal effects in animals.
Contact with other material may cause fire. Dangerous for the environment.
Cancer suspect agent. Possible sensitizer.
Target Organs:
Kidneys, central nervous system, lungs, blood forming organs,
reproductive system, nerves.
Potential Health
Effects
Eye: Causes eye irritation.
Skin: Causes skin irritation.
Ingestion: May cause gastrointestinal irritation with
nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Many lead compounds can cause toxic effects in
the blood-forming organs, kidneys and central nervous system.
Inhalation: Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause
effects similar to those described for ingestion.
Chronic:
May cause cancer in humans. Repeated exposure may cause sensitization
dermatitis. Chronic exposure to lead may result in plumbism which is
characterized by lead line in gum, headache, muscle weakness, mental changes.
Laboratory experiments have resulted in mutagenic effects. Lead salts have been
reported to cross the placeta and induce embryo- and feto- mortality.

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.
Skin: Get medical aid. Immediately flush skin
with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing
contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse.
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.
Notes to Physician: Persons with asthma, allergies, and
know sensitization to chromic acid or chromates may be at increased risk from
exposure to this product. Treat symptomatically and supportively.
Antidote: The use of d-Penicillamine as a chelating agent
should be determined by qualified medical personnel. The use of Calcium disodium
EDTA as a chelating agent should be determined by qualified medical personnel.
The use of Dimercaprol or BAL (British Anti-Lewisite) as a chelating agent
should be determined by qualified medical personnel.

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. Combustion generates toxic fumes. Oxidizer. Greatly increases the burning
rate of combustible materials. May accelerate burning if involved in a fire.
Extinguishing Media: Use water only! Cool containers with
flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out. For large fires,
flood fire area with water from a distance. Do NOT use dry chemicals, CO2, Halon
or foams.
|
Section 6 -
Accidental Release Measures |
General
Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in
Section 8.
Spills/Leaks: Avoid generating dusty conditions.
Provide ventilation. With a clean shovel, carefully pick up the material and
place it into a clean dry container and cover for disposal. Keep combustibles
(wood, paper, oil, etc.,) away from spilled material.
|
Section 7 - Handling
and Storage |
Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove
contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Use only in a well-ventilated area.
Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and
clothing. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and
can be dangerous. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation.
Keep away from clothing and other combustible materials. Do not pressurize, cut,
weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or
open flames.
Storage: Do not store near combustible
materials. 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 general or
local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below the permissible
exposure limits.

Section 12 -
Ecological Information |
Ecotoxicity: No
data available. Chromium in soil can be transported to the atmosphere by way of
aerosol formation. Chromium is also transported from soil through runoff and
leaching of water. Runoff could remove both chromium ions and bulk precipitates
of chromium, with final deposition on either a different land area or a water
body. Leaching of lead can be relatively rapid from some soils, especially at
highly contaminated sites or landfills.
Environmental: Chromium is
removed from air through wet and dry depositions. . Terrestrial Fate: Lead in
soil is relatively immobile and can persist for long periods of time, whether
added to the soil as halides, hydroxides, oxides, carbonates or sulfates.
Physical: No information available.
Other: None.

Section 13 - Disposal
Considerations |

Parts 261.3. Additionally, waste generators must consult state and local
hazardous waste regulations to ensure complete and accurate classification.
