| SECTION 3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION | |
POTENTIAL ACUTE HEALTH EFFECTS:
VERY HAZARDOUS IN CASE OF SKIN CONTACT (CORROSIVE, IRRITANT, PERMEATOR),
OF EYE CONTACT (IRRITANT, CORROSIVE), OF INGESTION,. SLIGHTLY HAZARDOUS IN
CASE OF INHALATION (LUNG SENSITIZER). LIQUID OR SPRAY MIST MAY PRODUCE
TISSUE DAMAGE PARTICULARLY ON MUCOUS MEMBRANES OF EYES, MOUTH AND
RESPIRATORY TRACT. SKIN CONTACT MAY PRODUCE BURNS. INHALATION OF THE SPRAY
MIST MAY PRODUCE SEVERE IRRITATION OF RESPIRATORY TRACT, CHARACTERIZED BY
COUGHING, CHOKING, OR SHORTNESS OF BREATH. PROLONGED EXPOSURE MAY RESULT
IN SKIN BURNS AND ULCERATIONS. OVER-EXPOSURE BY INHALATION MAY CAUSE
RESPIRATORY IRRITATION. SEVERE OVER-EXPOSURE CAN RESULT IN DEATH.
INFLAMMATION OF THE EYE IS CHARACTERIZED BY REDNESS, WATERING, AND
ITCHING. SKIN INFLAMMATION IS CHARACTERIZED BY ITCHING, SCALING,
REDDENING, OR, OCCASIONALLY, BLISTERING.
POTENTIAL CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS:
CARCINOGENIC EFFECTS: NOT AVAILABLE.
MUTAGENIC EFFECTS: NOT AVAILABLE.
TERATOGENIC EFFECTS: NOT AVAILABLE.
DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY: NOT AVAILABLE.
THE SUBSTANCE MAY BE TOXIC TO LUNGS, MUCOUS MEMBRANES, UPPER RESPIRATORY
TRACT, SKIN, EYES, TEETH.
REPEATED OR PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO THE SUBSTANCE CAN PRODUCE TARGET ORGANS
DAMAGE. REPEATED OR PROLONGED CONTACT WITH SPRAY MIST MAY PRODUCE CHRONIC
EYE IRRITATION AND SEVERE SKIN IRRITATION. REPEATED OR PROLONGED EXPOSURE
TO SPRAY MIST MAY PRODUCE RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION LEADING TO FREQUENT
ATTACKS OF BRONCHIAL INFECTION.
| SECTION 4. FIRST AID MEASURES | |
EYE CONTACT:
CHECK FOR AND REMOVE ANY CONTACT LENSES. IN CASE OF CONTACT, IMMEDIATELY
FLUSH EYES WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. COLD WATER MAY BE
USED. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
SKIN CONTACT:
IN CASE OF CONTACT, IMMEDIATELY FLUSH SKIN WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT
LEAST 15 MINUTES WHILE REMOVING CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND SHOES. COVER THE
IRRITATED SKIN WITH AN EMOLLIENT. COLD WATER MAY BE USED. WASH CLOTHING
BEFORE REUSE. THOROUGHLY CLEAN SHOES BEFORE REUSE. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION
IMMEDIATELY.
SERIOUS SKIN CONTACT:
WASH WITH A DISINFECTANT SOAP AND COVER THE CONTAMINATED SKIN WITH AN
ANTI-BACTERIAL CREAM. SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.
INHALATION:
IF INHALED, REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF NOT BREATHING, GIVE ARTIFICIAL
RESPIRATION. IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT, GIVE OXYGEN. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION
IMMEDIATELY.
SERIOUS INHALATION:
EVACUATE THE VICTIM TO A SAFE AREA AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. LOOSEN TIGHT
CLOTHING SUCH AS A COLLAR, TIE, BELT OR WAISTBAND. IF BREATHING IS
DIFFICULT, ADMINISTER OXYGEN. IF THE VICTIM IS NOT BREATHING, PERFORM
MOUTH-TO-MOUTH RESUSCITATION.
WARNING:
IT MAY BE HAZARDOUS TO THE PERSON PROVIDING AID TO GIVE MOUTH-TO-MOUTH
RESUSCITATION WHEN THE INHALED MATERIAL IS TOXIC, INFECTIOUS OR CORROSIVE.
SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.
INGESTION:
DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING UNLESS DIRECTED TO DO SO BY MEDICAL PERSONNEL.
NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON. IF LARGE QUANTITIES
OF THIS MATERIAL ARE SWALLOWED, CALL A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY. LOOSEN TIGHT
CLOTHING SUCH AS A COLLAR, TIE, BELT OR WAISTBAND.
