| SECTION 3: Hazards Identification | |
|---|---|
| Emergency Overview: | Material has a pungent odor. Inhalation of vapor may cause coughing, headache, and pulmonary edema. Very corrosive to eyes, skin, nose, and mucous membranes. |
| Primary Routes of Exposure: | Contact with skin and eyes. Inhalation of vapor. |
| Eye Contact: | Causes burns to the eyes. |
| Skin Contact: | Causes mild to severe irritation of the skin. Hydrochloric acid hydrolysis product is a corrosive liquid or vapor. |
| Inhalation: | Corrosive Inhalation may cause spasms, coughing, chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema. |
| Ingestion: | Corrosive to mouth throat and stomach. May cause dizziness, nausea, vomiting, pain and stomach upset. |
| Acute Health Effects: | Material has a pungent odor. Inhalation of vapor may cause chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema. Contact of liquid or vapor with eyes and skin causes burns. |

| 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. |
