| SECTION 3: Hazards Identification | |
|---|---|
| Emergency Overview: | Material hydrolyzes in contact with moisture releasing toxic and corrosive hydrofluoric acid. Causes delayed, deep, slow healing, painful burns. Soluble iron is a poison by ingestion. |
| Primary Routes of Exposure: | Contact with skin and eyes. Inhalation of vapor. |
| Eye Contact: | Causes serious eye damage. Effects may not immediately appear. |
| Skin Contact: | Prolonged contact with skin causes delayed deep slow healing painful burns. |
| Inhalation: | Dust or hydrofluoric acid fumes will cause chemical burns to the respiratory tract. |
| Ingestion: | If ingested, severe burns to the gastrointestinal tract may occur. |
| Acute Health Effects: | Burns to eyes and skin. Dust: Difficulty in breathing, lung congestion, nausea, dizziness, breathlessness. |
| 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 with water. Remove contaminated clothes if necessary. Apply calcium glutamate or water soluble calcium salts as antidote. Seek medical assistance. |
| 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. |
