EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: dark amber to orange liquid.
Danger! Corrosive. Causes eye and skin burns.
Causes digestive and respiratory tract burns.
Target Organs: None.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause irreversible eye injury. Vapor or mist may cause
irritation and severe burns. Contact with liquid is corrosive to the
eyes and causes severe burns.
Skin:
Contact with liquid is corrosive and causes severe burns and
ulceration.
Ingestion:
Causes severe digestive tract burns with abdominal pain, vomiting,
and possible death. May cause corrosion and permanent tissue
destruction of the esophagus and digestive tract.
Inhalation:
Causes severe irritation of upper respiratory tract with coughing,
burns, breathing difficulty, and possible coma. May cause pulmonary
edema and severe respiratory disturbances.
Chronic:
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. Repeated
exposure may cause erosion of teeth.
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 immediately. Do
NOT allow victim to rub eyes or keep eyes closed.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4
cupfuls of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. 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.
Antidote:
No specific antidote exists.
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
|
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. Not flammable, but reacts with most metals to form
flammable hydrogen gas.
Extinguishing Media:
Substance is nonflammable; use agent most appropriate to extinguish
surrounding fire.

Not published.
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
|
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Large spills may be neutralized with dilute alkaline solutions of
soda ash (sodium carbonate, Na2CO3), or lime (calcium oxide, CaO).
Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
Equipment section.
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
|
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Use with adequate ventilation. Do not get on skin
or in eyes. Do not ingest or inhale. Discard contaminated shoes.
Storage:
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible
substances. Keep containers tightly closed.
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.
