DANGER
Emergency overview
Oxidizing material.
May cause severe irritation or burns to the eyes, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and
respiratory system.
Contains a potential reproductive toxin.
space
Potential short term health effects
Eye, Skin contact, Skin absorption, Inhalation, Ingestion.
Routes of exposure
space
May cause chemical burns. May cause blindness.
Eyes
space
As per Policy Issue Sheet Number 60, strongly acidic or alkaline substances with a
Skin
demonstrated pH of 2 or less or 11.5 or greater, need not be tested for primary dermal
irritation, owing to their predictable corrosive properties.
In lieu of skin corrosivity test data on animals, this product is considered corrosive in
Canada based on the pH of the product as a whole.
May cause severe irritation or chemical burns. May be absorbed through the skin.
