Section 6 Health Hazard Data
Route(s) of Entry
eye and skin contact, inhalation, ingestion
Health Hazards
Eyes:
Carcinogenicity
no
Both liquid and vapor may cause irritations to the cornea. May cause severe burns and
possible irreversible eye damage if contact is made.
Skin:
Both liquid and vapor may cause deep burns and severe irritation.
Inhalation: Exposure to vapors, mist or liquid spary may produce burns of the upper respiratory tract and
Larynx. Severe exposure may cause pluralpneumonia. Can be harmful if inhalated.
Ingestion: May cause severe and permanent damage to digestive tract. May cause severe pain, nausea,
Vomiting, diarrhea (with blood) and shock. Can be harmful or fatal if swallowed.
Medical Conditions
Generally Aggravated by Exposure
Emergency and First Aid Procedures
asthma, bronchitis, lung diseases, sinus or throat conditions. Skin may be aggravated by
those with existing skin disorders.
Note:
Eyes:
Specialized first aid and medical treatment are required for all exposures
Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the
upper and lower lids. Seek medical aid immediately.
Skin:
Flush affected area of skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes
while removing any contaminated clothing. Do not try to neutralize the burned
area with chemicals. Seek medical aid immediately.
Inhalation: Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. Keep the victim quiet, lying
down and as comfortable as possible. Seek immediately medical attention. If
not breathing, give artificial respiration at once. If breathing is difficult, give
oxygen.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Give 1-2 glasses of water to dilute stomach contents.
Get medical aid. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep head below hips to
prevent aspiration of liquid into lungs. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person.
Section 7 Precautions for Safe Handling and Use
Steps to Be Taken in Case Material Is Released or Spilled
Waste Disposal Method
Stop leak if without risk. Prevent entry into drains or watercourses. Absorb
with an inert material and put in an appropriate waste disposal.
Dispose of in accordance with local, state and federal environmental control regulations.
Precautions to Be Taken in Handling and Storing
Always wear suitable PPE, rubber or vinyl gloves are recommended. Wash
toroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before re-use.
Use with adequate ventilation. Keep container tightly closed, avoid skin and eye
contact and avoid inhalation.
Store in non-metal containers only. Store in cool, dry, well ventilated area away
from incompatible substances such as water, acids, strong oxidizers and
flammable liquids.

Section 8 Exposure Controls and Personal Protection
Engineering controls
Personal Protection
Provide adequate ventilation. Local exhaust in addition to general room ventilation may be required to
meet exposure limit(s).
Respiratory: None required with normal use in well-ventilated area.
NIOSH approved respirator is advised for poorly ventilated areas.
Eye/Face: Safety glasses, splash googles.
Skin:
Wear chemical resistant gloves. Wear long legged, long sleeve work clothes. Launder
contaminated clothing before re-use.
Work/Hygienic Practices
Do not store, use, and/or consume foods, beverages, tobacco products or cosmetics next to material.
Wash hands and face carefully after work.
