| SECTION 3: Hazards Identification | |
|---|---|
| Emergency Overview: | This compound may slowly hydrolyze in the presence of water to give toxic nitrogen dioxide and corrosive fluorophosphoric acid. The latter can cause fluoride poisoning, symptoms: nausea, vomiting, and weakness |
| Primary Routes of Exposure: | Ingestion, inhalation, skin, eyes. |
| Eye Contact: | Dust is corrosive to the eyes. Exposure can lead to permanent eye damage. |
| Skin Contact: | Corrosive to skin. Contact can lead to redness, pain, blistering, ulceration, and scar formation. |
| Inhalation: | Causes burns to the nose, mucous membranes and respiratory tract. Pulmonary edema may occur. |
| Ingestion: | May cause salivation, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. |
| Acute Health Effects: | Burns to eyes, skin, and respiratory tract. Dust: Fluoride poisoning may cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, coma, respiratory failure and cardiovascular collapse. |
| Chronic Health Effects: | Prolonged exposure to hydrolysable fluorine compounds can cause deterioration of bone and tooth structure. |
| 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 immediately with water. Remove contaminated clothing 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. |
