| SECTION 3: Hazards Identification | |
|---|---|
| Emergency Overview: | Irritating to skin, eyes and respiratory tract. Harmful by inhalation and if swallowed. May cause cancer. It is required by California Prop 65 to inform all users that calcium chromate contains hexavalent chromium. |
| Primary Routes of Exposure: | Ingestion, inhalation, skin |
| Eye Contact: | Causes moderate irritation to the eyes with watering and redness. |
| Skin Contact: | Toxic in contact with skin. Causes inflammation to skin with reddening, scaling and itchiness. |
| Inhalation: | Harmful by inhalation.Causes inflammation and ulceration of the respiratory tract. |
| Ingestion: | Harmful if swallowed. Ingestion may lead to dizziness, abdominal cramps, vomiting, bloody diarrhea, weakness, and convulsions. |
| Acute Health Effects: | Harmful if swallowed. Irritating to skin, eyes, and respiratory system and when ingested. Causes inflamation to skin. Inhalation causes coughing, difficulty breathing, irregular heartbeat. |
