Potential Health Effects
----------------------------------
Information on the human health effects from exposure to this substance is
limited.
Inhalation: No information found, but compound should be handled as a
potential health hazard.
Ingestion: No information found, but compound should be handled as a
potential health hazard.
Skin Contact:May cause irritation with redness and pain.
Eye Contact: May cause irritation, redness and pain.
Chronic Exposure: No information found.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions: No information found.
4. First Aid Measures
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Get medical attention for any
breathing difficulty.
Ingestion: Induce vomiting immediately as directed by medical
personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical
attention.
Skin Contact: Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least
15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before
reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse. Get medical attention if
irritation develops.
Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least
15 minutes, lifting upper and lower eyelids occasionally. Get medical
attention if irritation persists.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
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.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Keep unnecessary and unprotected people away
from area of 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.
7. Handling and Storage
Keep in a tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area.
Protect against physical damage. Isolate from incompatible substances.
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.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
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 protective gloves and clean body-covering
clothing.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles. Maintain eye wash fountain
and quick-drench facilities in work area.
