DERMAL EXPOSURE
In case of skin contact, flush with copious amounts of water for
at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes.
Call a physician.
EYE EXPOSURE
In case of contact with eyes, flush with copious amounts of
water for at least 15 minutes. Assure adequate flushing by
separating the eyelids with fingers. Call a physician.

and protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes.
Specific Hazard(s): Emits toxic fumes under fire conditions.
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
PROCEDURE TO BE FOLLOWED IN CASE OF LEAK OR SPILL
Evacuate area.
PROCEDURE(S) OF PERSONAL PRECAUTION(S)
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus, rubber boots, and heavy
rubber gloves.
METHODS FOR CLEANING UP
Sweep up, place in a bag and hold for waste disposal. Avoid
raising dust. Ventilate area and wash spill site after material
pickup is complete.
Section 7 - Handling and Storage

on clothing. Avoid prolonged or repeated exposure.
ALDRICH - N9829 www.sigma-aldrich.com Page 2
STORAGE
Suitable: Keep container closed.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls / PPE
ENGINEERING CONTROLS
Use only in a chemical fume hood. Safety shower and eye bath.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Respiratory: Use respirators and components tested and approved
under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN
(EU). Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are
appropriate use a full-face particle respirator type N99 (US) or
type P2 (EN 143) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering
controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a
full-face supplied air respirator.
Hand: Compatible chemical-resistant gloves.
Eye: Chemical safety goggles.
GENERAL HYGIENE MEASURES
Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Wash thoroughly after
handling.

Section 11 - Toxicological Information
ROUTE OF EXPOSURE
Skin Contact: Causes skin irritation.
Skin Absorption: Readily absorbed through skin. Toxic if
absorbed through skin.
Eye Contact: Causes eye irritation.
Inhalation: Material is irritating to mucous membranes and upper
respiratory tract. Toxic if inhaled.
Ingestion: Toxic if swallowed.
TARGET ORGAN(S) OR SYSTEM(S)
Blood. Heart. Liver. Kidneys.
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
Absorption into the body leads to the formation of methemoglobin
which in sufficient concentration causes cyanosis. Onset may be
delayed 2 to 4 hours or longer. To the best of our knowledge,
the chemical, physical, and toxicological properties have not
been thoroughly investigated.
