SECTION - 3 HAZARDS INFORMATION
Primary Route(s) of Entry: Skin contact /absorption and inhalation
Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: Gastrointestinal irritation
(nausea, vomiting, diarrhea), irritation to nose, throat, and respiratory
tract.
Target Organ Effects: Overexposure to this material (or its
components) has been suggested as a cause of the following effects in
laboratory animals and may aggravate pre-existing disorders or these
organs in humans: chronic ingestion may cause kidney and liver
lesions at high doses.
IMMEDIATE HEALTH EFFECTS
EYES: Exposure may cause noticeable pain, and severe irritation and
transient corneal injury.
SKIN: Causes chemical burns. Harmful contact may not cause
immediate pain.
INHALATION: Exposure to vapor or mist is possible. Short term
inhalation is no likely to cause harmful effects:
breathing large amounts may be harmful. Symptoms are more
typically seen at air concentrations
exceeding the recommended exposure limits.
INGESTION: Harmful or fatal if swallowed. Causes chemical burns to
the mouth, throat and stomach.
REPRODUCTIVE / DEVELOPMENTAL INFORMATION
No Data
CARCINOGENIC INFORMATION: This material is not listed as a
carcinogen by IARC, NTP, or OSHA
LONG TERM EFFECTS: No Data
SECTION - 4 FIRST AID MEASURES
EYES: Immediately flush with water. Remove contact lenses, if
applicable, and continue flushing with water for 15 minutes. Call a
physician immediately.
SKIN: Immediately flush with water for 15 minutes. Call physician if
irritation persists. Completely decontaminate clothing, shoes, and
leather goods before reuse or discard.
INHALATION: If symptoms develop move victim to fresh air. If
symptoms persist, call a physician.
INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth with water, then
drink one or two glasses of water or milk. Call a physician
immediately. Never give anything by mouth if victim is unconscious, is
rapidly losing consciousness or is convulsing.
SECTION - 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point: 87 o F (C.C. method) Explosive Limits:
Not Applicable
Autoignition Temperature: Not Applicable
Hazardous Products of Combustion: Oxides of carbon, oxides of
nitrogen, and ammonia
Extinguishing Media: Not Applicable
Fire Fighting Instructions: Avoid contact with this material. Avoid
walking in spilled material. Wear protective clothing for skin and eyes
SECTION - 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Small Spill: Absorb with an inert solid and scoop up for disposal, then
rinse soiled area with water down the drain.
Large Spill: Stop leak at the source and collect into a suitable
container, then treat as a small spill.
SECTION - 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling: Containers of this material may be hazardous when
emptied. Since emptied containers retain product residues (vapor,
liquid, and/or solid), all hazard precautions given in the data sheet
must be observed.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Keep container closed when not in
use.
SECTION - 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL
PROTECTION
Eye Protection: Chemical Splash goggle in compliance with OSHA
regulations are advised: however , OSHA regulations also permit other
type safety glasses. Consult your safety representative.
Skin Protection: Wear rubber gloves (consult your safety equipment
supplier). To prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact, wear
impervious clothing and boots.
Respiratory Protection: If workplace exposure limits of product or any
component are exceeded (see exposure guidelines), NIOSH/OSHA
approved air supplied respirator is advised in the absence of proper
environmental control. OSHA relations also permit other
NIOSH/OSHA respirators (negative pressure type) under specific
conditions (see your industrial hygienist). Engineering or
administrative controls should be implemented to reduce exposure.
Engineering Controls: Provide sufficient mechanical (general and
local exhaust) ventilation to maintain exposure below level of
overexposure (from known, suspected or apparent adverse effects).
