3: Hazards Identification
Potential
Acute Health Effects:Extremely
hazardous in case of ingestion. Very hazardous in case of eye contact
(irritant), of inhalation. Severe over-exposure can result in death.
Inflammation of the eye is characterized by redness, watering, and itching.
Potential
Chronic Health Effects:Extremely
hazardous in case of ingestion. Very hazardous in case of eye contact
(irritant), of inhalation. CARCINOGENIC EFFECTS: Not available. MUTAGENIC
EFFECTS: Not available. TERATOGENIC EFFECTS: Not available.
DEVELOPMENTAL
TOXICITY: Not available. The substance is toxic to blood, kidneys, lungs, liver.
Repeated or prolonged exposure to the substance can produce target organs
damage. Repeated exposure to an highly toxic material may produce general
deterioration of health by an accumulation in one or many human organs.
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: No known effect
on skin contact, rinse with water for a few minutes.
Serious
Skin Contact: Not
available.
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. Seek 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.
