Emergency Overview
--------------------------
WARNING! CAUSES IRRITATION TO SKIN, EYES AND RESPIRATORY TRACT. MAY BE
HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED, INHALED OR ABSORBED THROUGH SKIN.
Potential Health Effects
----------------------------------
Information on the human health effects from exposure to this
substance is limited.
Inhalation:
Causes irritation to the
respiratory tract. Symptoms may include coughing, shortness of breath.
Ingestion:
Causes irritation to the gastrointestinal tract.
Symptoms may include nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Skin Contact:
Causes irritation to skin. Symptoms include redness, itching, and pain.
Eye Contact:
Causes irritation, redness, and pain.
Chronic Exposure:
No information found.
Aggravation of
Pre-existing Conditions:
No information found.
4. First Aid Measures
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give
artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical
attention.
Ingestion:
Give large amounts of water to drink.
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact:
Immediately flush skin with plenty of soap and
water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get
medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before
reuse.
Eye Contact:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water
for at least 15 minutes, lifting lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get
medical attention immediately.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Fire:
As with most organic solids, fire is possible at
elevated temperatures or by contact with an ignition source.
Explosion:
Fine dust dispersed in air in sufficient
concentrations, and in the presence of an ignition source is a potential dust
explosion hazard.
Fire Extinguishing Media:
Use any means
suitable for extinguishing surrounding fire.
Special Information:
In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved
self-contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in the
pressure demand or other positive pressure mode.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate personal
protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Spills: Sweep up and
containerize for reclamation or disposal. Vacuuming or wet sweeping may be
used to avoid dust dispersal.
7. Handling and Storage
Keep in a tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry,
ventilated area. Protect against physical damage. Isolate from incompatible
substances. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they
retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions
listed for the product.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Airborne Exposure Limits:
- OSHA Permissible Exposure
Limit (PEL):
15 mg/m3 total dust, 5 mg/m3 respirable fraction for nuisance
dusts.
- ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV):
10 mg/m3 total dust
containing no asbestos and < 1% crystalline silica for Particulates Not
Otherwise Classified (PNOC).
Ventilation System:
A system of
local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures below
the Airborne Exposure Limits. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred
because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source,
preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Please refer to the
ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended
Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators
(NIOSH Approved):
If the exposure limit is exceeded, a half-face
dust/mist respirator may be worn for up to ten times the exposure limit or the
maximum use concentration specified by the appropriate regulatory agency or
respirator supplier, whichever is lowest. A full-face piece dust/mist
respirator may be worn up to 50 times the exposure limit, or the maximum use
concentration specified by the appropriate regulatory agency, or respirator
supplier, whichever is lowest. For emergencies or instances where the exposure
levels are not known, use a full-facepiece positive-pressure, air-supplied
respirator. WARNING: Air-purifying respirators do not protect workers in
oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Skin Protection:
Wear impervious
protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls, as
appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:
Use
chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where dusting or splashing of
solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities
in work area.
Other Control Measures:
There is insufficient
data in the published literature to assign complete numerical SAF-T-DATA*
ratings and laboratory protective equipment for this product. Special
precautions must be used in storage, use and handling. Protective equipment
for laboratory bench use should be chosen using professional judgment based on
the size and type of reaction or test to be conducted and the available
ventilation, with overriding consideration to minimize contact with the
chemical.
