and digestive tract irritation with possible burns. Hygroscopic. Toxic. Harmful
if swallowed. Danger! Corrosive. Causes eye and skin burns.
Target Organs: None.
Potential Health
Effects
Eye: Causes eye burns. May result in
corneal injury.
Skin: Causes skin burns. May cause severe
irritation and possible burns.
Ingestion: Harmful if
swallowed. May cause severe and permanent damage to the digestive tract. Causes
gastrointestinal tract burns. May cause severe gastrointestinal tract irritation
with nausea, vomiting and possible burns.
Inhalation: May
cause respiratory tract irritation. May cause irritation of the respiratory
tract with burning pain in the nose and throat, coughing, wheezing, shortness of
breath and pulmonary edema. Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract.

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
immediately. Do NOT allow victim to rub or keep eyes closed. Extensive
irrigation with water is required (at least 30 minutes).
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. Destroy contaminated shoes.
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. Wash mouth out with water.
Inhalation: Get medical aid immediately. Remove from
exposure to fresh air immediately. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Do
NOT use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply artificial
respiration using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a
mask.
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. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by
thermal decomposition or combustion. Vapors may be heavier than air. They can
spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas.
Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon
dioxide, or chemical foam.
|
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. Clean up
spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section.
Provide ventilation.
|
Section 7 - Handling
and Storage |
Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not get
in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Do not ingest
or inhale. Use with adequate ventilation. Use only in a chemical fume hood.
Discard contaminated shoes.
Storage: Keep away from sources
of ignition. Keep container closed when not in use. Store in a tightly closed
container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible
substances. Store protected from moisture.

exposure.
Clothing: Wear appropriate protective clothing to
prevent skin exposure.
Respirators: A respiratory protection program
that meets OSHA's 29 CFR §1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European
Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a
respirator's use. Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29CFR 1910.134
or European Standard EN 149. Always use a NIOSH or European Standard EN 149
approved respirator when necessary.
