SECTION 3: Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview: Irritating to skin, eyes and respiratory tract.
Primary Routes of Exposure: Contact with skin and eyes. Inhalation of dust.
Eye Contact: Causes mild irritation to the eyes.
Skin Contact: Causes moderate irritation of the skin and dermatitis. Contact through a break in the skin can induce an allergic reaction.
Inhalation: Inhalation of dust causes wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath and asthma like symptoms, typical of allergy.
Ingestion: May cause nausea, vomiting dizziness, and abdominal pain and produce central nervous system effects.
Acute Health Effects: Irritating to skin, eyes and respiratory tract. Symptoms of bromide ingestion may include skin rash, blurred vision, drowsiness, irritability, dizziness, mania, hallucinations, and coma.
Chronic Health Effects: The chloroplatinate allergic reaction known as platinosis ceases when prolonged exposure is terminated. Prolonged exposure to bromides may cause skin rashes, memory loss, irritability, and headache.
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.
