FIRST AID MEASURES
Inhalation:
Skin Contact:
If symptoms develop, move victim to fresh air. If symptoms persist, obtain medical attention.
Wash with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.
Eye Contact:
Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting eyelids occasionally to facilitate
irrigation.
Do not induce vomiting. Drink large quantities of water. Bring to the attention of a physician.

Material is extremely destructive to tissue of the mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract, eyes, and skin., spasm, inflammation and
edema of the larynx, spasm, inflammation and edema of the bronchi, pneumonitis, pulmonary edema, burning sensation, Cough, wheezing,
laryngitis, Shortness of breath, Headache, Nausea, Vomiting, Ingestion or inhalation of concentrated acetic acid causes damage to tissues
of the respiratory and digestive tracts. Symptoms include: hematemesis, bloody diarrhea, edema and/or perforation of the esophagus and
pylorus, pancreatitis, hematuria, anuria, uremia, albuminuria, hemolysis, convulsions, bronchitis, pulmonary edema, pneumonia,
cardiovascular collapse, shock, and death. Direct contact or exposure to high concentrations of vapor with skin or eyes can cause:
erythema, blisters, tissue destruction with slow healing, skin blackening, hyperkeratosis, fissures, corneal
erosion, opacification, iritis, conjunctivitis, and possible blindness., To the best of our knowledge, the chemical, physical, and toxicological
properties have not been thoroughly investigated.
