EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: dark brown liquid.
Danger! Corrosive. Causes eye and skin burns. May
cause allergic respiratory reaction. May cause allergic skin
reaction. May cause severe respiratory and digestive tract irritation
with possible burns. May cause cancer based on animal studies.
Target Organs: Eyes, skin, mucous membranes.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes severe eye burns. May cause irreversible eye injury.

Causes skin burns. May cause skin sensitization, an allergic
reaction, which becomes evident upon re-exposure to this material.
Ingestion:
May cause severe and permanent damage to the digestive tract. Causes
gastrointestinal tract burns.
Inhalation:
May cause asthmatic attacks due to allergic sensitization of the
respiratory tract. May cause severe irritation of the respiratory
tract with sore throat, coughing, shortness of breath and delayed
lung edema. Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract.

|
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
|
Eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid imme
diately.
Skin:
Get medical aid immediately. Immediately flush skin with plenty of
water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing
and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. SPEEDY ACTION IS CRITICAL!
Destroy contaminated shoes.
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4
cupfuls of milk or water. Get medical aid immediately.
Inhalation:
Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh
air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If
breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively.
|
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
|
General Information:
Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent contact with skin
and eyes. Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) to
prevent contact with thermal decomposition products. Contact with
water can cause violent liberation of heat and splattering of the
material.

|
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
|
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
Equipment section. Cover with sand, dry lime or soda ash and place in
a closed container for disposal.
|
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
|
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Keep
container tightly closed. Do not allow contact with water. Use only
in a chemical fume hood.
Storage:
Do not store near combustible materials. Keep container closed when
not in use. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from
incompatible substances. Corrosives area. Do not store near alkaline
substances.
|
Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection
|
Engineering Controls:
Use process enclosure, local exhaust ventilation, or other
engineering controls to control airborne levels below recommended
exposure limits. Facilities storing or utilizing this material should
be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower.
