Section
3: Hazards Identification Potential Acute Health Effects:
Extremely
hazardous in case of ingestion. Very hazardous in case of skin contact
(irritant), of eye contact (irritant). Hazardous in case of skin contact
(permeator), of inhalation. Corrosive to skin and eyes on contact. Liquid or
spray mist may produce tissue damage particularly on mucous membranes of eyes,
mouth and respiratory tract. Skin contact may produce burns. Inhalation of the
spray mist may produce severe irritation of respiratory tract, characterized by
coughing, choking, or shortness of breath. Severe over-exposure can result in
death. Inflammation of the eye is characterized by redness, watering, and
itching.
Skin inflammation is characterized by itching, scaling, reddening, or,
occasionally, blistering.
Potential
Chronic Health Effects: Extremely
hazardous in case of ingestion. Very hazardous in case of skin contact
(irritant), of eye contact (irritant). Hazardous in case of skin contact
(permeator), of inhalation. CARCINOGENIC EFFECTS: Classified + (PROVEN) by OSHA.
Classified A2 (Suspected for human.) by ACGIH. MUTAGENIC EFFECTS: Not available.
TERATOGENIC EFFECTS: Not available. DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY: Not available. The
substance is toxic to blood, liver. Repeated or prolonged exposure to the
substance can produce target organs damage. Repeated or prolonged contact with
spray mist may produce chronic eye irritation and severe skin irritation.
Repeated or prolonged exposure to spray mist may produce respiratory tract
irritation leading to frequent attacks of bronchial infection. Repeated exposure
to an highly toxic material may produce general deterioration of health by an
accumulation in one or many human organs. Repeated or prolonged inhalation of
vapors may lead to chronic respiratory irritation.
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: If the chemical
got onto the clothed portion of the body, remove the contaminated clothes as
quickly as possible, protecting your own hands and body. Place the victim under
a deluge shower. If the chemical got on the victim's exposed skin, such as the
hands : 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. If irritation persists, seek medical attention.
Wash contaminated clothing before reusing.
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:Evacuate the
victim to a safe area as soon as possible. Loosen tight clothing such as a
collar, tie, belt or waistband. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. If
the victim is not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. WARNING: It
may be hazardous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation when the inhaled material is toxic, infectious or corrosive. Seek
immediate medical attention.
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.
Serious
Ingestion: Not available.

Section
6: Accidental Release Measures Small Spill:
Dilute
with water and mop up, or absorb with an inert dry material and place in an
appropriate waste disposal container.
Large
Spill:Combustible
material. Corrosive liquid. Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of
ignition. Stop leak if without risk. If the product is in its solid form: Use a
shovel to put the material into a convenient waste disposal container. If the
product is in its liquid form: Absorb with DRY earth, sand or other
non-combustible material. Do not get water inside container. Absorb with an
inert material and put the spilled material in an appropriate waste disposal. Do
not touch spilled material. Use water spray curtain to divert vapor drift.
Prevent entry into sewers, basements or confined areas; dike if needed.
Eliminate all ignition
sources.
Call for assistance on disposal. 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:
Keep
locked up Keep container dry. Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of
ignition. Ground all equipment containing material. Do not ingest. Do not
breathe gas/fumes/ vapour/spray. Never add water to this product 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:Flammable
materials should be stored in a separate safety storage cabinet or room. Keep
away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Keep container tightly
closed. Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place. Ground all equipment containing
material. Keep container dry. Keep in a cool place.
Section
8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Engineering Controls:
