| SECTION 3: Hazards Identification | |
|---|---|
| Emergency Overview: | Irritating to eyes, skin and respiratory tract. May cause cancer. Perchlorates may affect thyroid and kidney functions |
| Primary Routes of Exposure: | Ingestion |
| Eye Contact: | Causes moderate irritation of the eyes. |
| Skin Contact: | Causes slight to mild irritation of the. skin. Prolonged contact with nickel salts may lead to dermatitis. |
| Inhalation: | May cause difficulty in breathing. Irritates mucous membranes and respiratory tract. |
| Ingestion: | Ingestion may lead to dizziness, abdominal cramps, vomiting, bloody diarrhea, weakness, and convulsions. |
| Acute Health Effects: | Irritating to skin, eyes and respiratory tract. |
| Chronic Health Effects: | Long term exposure to nickel compounds may lead to skin irritation and dermatitis and cause cancer. Perchlorates reversibly inhibit thyroid iodine uptake. Kidney function may be affected. |

| 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. |
