| SECTION 3: Hazards Identification | |
|---|---|
| Emergency Overview: | If inhaled or swallowed, this compound may, to the extent that it may form water soluble fluoride, cause fluoride poisoning. Early symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and weakness |
| Primary Routes of Exposure: | Contact with skin and eyes. Inhalation of dust. |
| Eye Contact: | May cause irritation and serious eye damage. Effects may not immediately appear. |
| Skin Contact: | May cause irritation with redness and pain. Soluble fluoride may be corrosive. Effects may not appear immediately. |
| Inhalation: | Inhalation of dust may cause severe irritation to the respiratory tract, causing coughing, sore throat, and labored breathing. |
| Ingestion: | May cause salivation, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. |
| Acute Health Effects: | 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. |

| 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 gluconate jelly 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. |
