|---|---|
| Emergency Overview: | Toxic by inhalation and if swallowed. Causes burns to eyes, skin and respiratory tract. May causes cancer and heritable genetic damage. |
| Primary Routes of Exposure: | Ingestion, inhalation of dust and vapor |
| Eye Contact: | Causes burns to the eyes. |
| Skin Contact: | Causes caustic burns to the skin. |
| Inhalation: | Causes respiratory tract burns. Symptoms may include coughing, shortness of breath, dizziness, nausea and vomiting. |
| Ingestion: | Toxic. Ingestion may lead to burning sensation, dizziness, abdominal cramps, vomiting, bloody diarrhea, weakness, and convulsions. |

| 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. |
