EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: brown powder.
Danger! Strong oxidizer. Contact with other
material may cause a fire. May cause severe eye, skin and
respiratory tract irritation with possible burns. Cancer suspect
agent. Light sensitive.
Target Organs: No data found.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause conjunctivitis. May cause permanent corneal
opacification.
Skin:
May cause severe irritation and possible burns.
Ingestion:
The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully
investigated. May cause burns to the gastrointestinal tract. May
cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, possibly with blood.
Inhalation:
The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully
investigated. May cause acute pulmonary edema, asphyxia, chemical
pneumonitis, and upper airway obstruction caused by edema.
Chronic:
May cause cancer according to animal studies. Chronic exposure to
water insoluble hexavalent chromium compounds has been shown to be
associated with lung cancer and gastrointestinal tract tumors.

Section 4 - First Aid Measures
|
Eyes:
Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally
lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing
before reuse.
Ingestion:
Get medical aid. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert,
rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not
breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical aid. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply artificial respiration
using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a
mask.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively.

protective gear. Strong oxidizer. Contact with other material may
cause fire. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be
generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Use water with
caution and in flooding amounts.
Extinguishing Media:
Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Contact professional
fire-fighters immediately. Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon
dioxide, or appropriate foam.
Flash Point: Not applicable.
Autoignition Temperature: Not applicable.
Explosion Limits, Lower:Not available.
Upper: Not available.

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
|
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal
container. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the
Protective Equipment section. Avoid generating dusty conditions.
Remove all sources of ignition. Provide ventilation. Do not use
combustible materials such as paper towels to clean up spill.
|
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
|
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Use with adequate ventilation.
Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes,
skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid contact with
clothing and other combustible materials. Avoid ingestion and
inhalation. Store protected from light.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Do not store near
combustible materials. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in
a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
Store protected from light.
