| SECTION 3: Hazards Identification | |
|---|---|
| Emergency Overview: | Irritating to skin, eyes and respiratory tract. May be harmful if swallowed. |
| Primary Routes of Exposure: | Ingestion, inhalation. |
| Eye Contact: | Dust is a severe acidic irritant to the eyes. Exposure can lead to permanent eye damage. |
| Skin Contact: | Dust is a severe irritant. Prolonged exposure may cause corrosive burns to skin. |
| Inhalation: | The dust is severely irritating to the nose, mucous membranes and respiratory tract and causes pulmonary edema. |
| Ingestion: | Immediate pain in the mouth and throat, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, intense thirst, clammy skin, weak and rapid pulse. |
| Acute Health Effects: | Fumes cause irritation of eyes and respiratory passages and pulmonary edema. Ingestion may cause vomiting, intense thirst, clammy skin, weak and rapid pulse, and circulatory shock. |
| Chronic Health Effects: | No information available on long-term chronic effects. |
| NTP: | No |
| IARC: | No |
| OSHA: | No |
| SECTION 4: First Aid Measures | |
|---|---|
| Eye Exposure: | Immediately flush the eyes with copious amounts of water for at least 10-15 minutes. A victim may need assistance in keeping their eye lids open. Get immediate medical attention. |
| Skin Exposure: | Wash the affected area with water. Remove contaminated clothes if necessary. Seek medical assistance if irritation persists. |
| Inhalation: | Remove the victim to fresh air. Closely monitor the victim for signs of respiratory problems, such as difficulty in breathing, coughing, wheezing, or pain. In such cases seek immediate medical assistance. |
| Ingestion: | Seek medical attention immediately. Keep the victim calm. Give the victim water (only if conscious). Induce vomiting only if directed by medical personnel. |
