SECTION V-Health Hazard and First Aid

Time Weighted Average (TWA):    150 ppm based in the raw material.

Carcinogen:                                No

Acute Chronic Health Effects:        Excessive exposure may cause irritation to upper respiratory tract. Excessive exposure may cause carboxyhemoglobinemia, thereby impairing the bloods ability to transport oxygen.

Primary Routes of Entry:              X Inhalation                   X Ingestion                    X Skin

Effects of Overexposure:               Eyes-May cause pain, moderate eye irritation and slight corneal injury. Vapors may irritate eyes.

                                                Skin-May cause irritation. Repeated contact may cause drying or flaking of skin.

                                                Inhalation-In confined or poorly ventilated areas, vapors can readily accumulate and cause unconsciousness and death.

                                                Ingestion-May be harmful.

First Aid:

                                                Eyes-Flush with water for 15 minutes. Get medical attention if irritation persists.

                                                Skin-Wash with soap and water.

                                                Inhalation-Move to fresh air. Get medical attention.

                                                Ingestion-Do not induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately.

 

SECTION VI-Reactivity Data

Stability:                                   Stable X

Conditions to Avoid:                   Hydrolysis producing small amounts of hydrochloric acid possible with gross water contamination. Avoid open flames, welding arcs, or other high temperature sources, which induce thermal decomposition.

Incompatibility:                          Strong oxidizers; caustics, chemically active metals such as aluminum, magnesium and sodium.
