Potential Health Effects
----------------------------------
Inhalation: Inhalation may be corrosive to the mucous membranes and
respiratory tract. Symptoms may include sore throat, coughing, and shortness of
breath.
Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. May cause abdominal pain, nausea,
diarrhea.
Skin Contact: Causes irritation to skin. Symptoms include redness,
itching, and pain.
Eye Contact: Causes irritation, redness, and pain. May be corrosive if
not rinsed promptly.
Chronic Exposure: No information found.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions: No information found.
Inhalation:Remove to fresh air. If not breathing,
give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical
attention.
Ingestion:Induce vomiting immediately as directed by medical personnel.
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Skin Contact:Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention. Wash
clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse.
Eye Contact:Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes, lifting upper and lower eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention.
Fire:Not considered to be a fire hazard.
Explosion:Not considered to be an explosion hazard.
Fire Extinguishing Media:Use any means suitable for extinguishing
surrounding fire.
Special Information:In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing
and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece
operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode.
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate personal
protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Spills: Pick up and place in a
suitable container for reclamation or disposal, using a method that does not
generate dust.
Keep in a tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Protect against physical damage. Keep away from moisture and oxidizers. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
Airborne Exposure Limits:None established.
Ventilation System:A system of local and/or general exhaust is
recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust
ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the
contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work
area. Please refer to the ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of
Recommended Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):For conditions of use where
exposure to dust or mist is apparent and engineering controls are not feasible,
a particulate respirator (NIOSH type N95 or better filters) may be worn. If oil
particles (e.g. lubricants, cutting fluids, glycerine, etc.) are present, use a
NIOSH type R or P filter. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels
are not known, use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator.
WARNING: Air-purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient
atmospheres.
Skin Protection:Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots,
gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where
dusting or splashing of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and
quick-drench facilities in work area.
