DEVELOPMENTAL
TOXICITY: Not available. The substance is toxic to lungs, the nervous system,
mucous membranes. Repeated or prolonged exposure to the substance can produce
target organs damage.
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. Cold water may be used. Do not use an
eye ointment. Seek medical attention.
Skin
Contact:After contact with
skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. Gently and thoroughly wash the
contaminated skin with running water and non-abrasive soap. Be particularly
careful to clean folds, crevices, creases and groin. Cold water may be
used.Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. If irritation persists, seek
medical attention.
Serious
Skin Contact: Wash with a
disinfectant soap and cover the contaminated skin with an anti-bacterial cream.
Seek immediate medical attention.
Inhalation:
Allow the victim to rest
in a well ventilated area. Seek immediate medical attention.
Serious
Inhalation: Not available.
Ingestion:Do
not induce vomiting. Examine the lips and mouth to ascertain whether the tissues
are damaged, a possible indication that the toxic material was ingested; the
absence of such signs, however, is not conclusive. Loosen tight clothing such as
a collar, tie, belt or waistband. If the victim is not breathing, perform
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Seek immediate medical attention.

6: Accidental Release Measures Small Spill:
Use
appropriate tools to put the spilled solid in a convenient waste disposal
container. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and
dispose of according to local and regional authority requirements.
Large
Spill:Use a shovel to put
the material into a convenient waste disposal container. Finish cleaning by
spreading water on the contaminated surface and allow to evacuate through the
sanitary system. Be careful that the product is not present at a concentration
level above TLV. Check TLV on the MSDS and with local authorities.
Section
7: Handling and Storage Precautions:
Do
not ingest. Do not breathe dust. Wear suitable protective clothing In case of
insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment If ingested, seek
medical advice immediately and show the container or the label. Avoid contact
with skin and eyes
Storage:No
specific storage is required. Use shelves or cabinets sturdy enough to bear the
weight of the chemicals. Be sure that it is not necessary to strain to reach
materials, and that shelves are not overloaded.
Section
8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Engineering Controls:
Use
process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to
keep airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If user operations
generate dust, fume or mist, use ventilation to keep exposure to airborne
contaminants below the exposure limit.
Personal
Protection:
Splash
goggles. Lab coat. Dust respirator. Be sure to use an approved/certified
respirator or equivalent. Gloves.
Personal
Protection in Case of a Large Spill:
Splash
goggles. Full suit. Dust respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self contained breathing
apparatus should be used to avoid inhalation of the product. Suggested
protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist BEFORE
handling this product.
