|
Powder, alcohol-resistant foam, water spray, carbon dioxide.
|
| EXPLOSION |
|
|
|
| EXPOSURE |
|
|
|
| Inhalation |
Cough. Sore throat.
|
Local exhaust.
|
Fresh air, rest.
|
| Skin |
Redness.
|
Protective gloves.
|
Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.
|
| Eyes |
Redness.
|
Safety spectacles.
|
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.
|
| Ingestion |
Burning sensation.
|
Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work.
|
Rinse mouth.
|
| SPILLAGE DISPOSAL | PACKAGING & LABELLING |
Collect leaking liquid in sealable containers. If solid: sweep spilled substance into containers; if appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Wash away remainder with plenty of water (extra personal protection: A/P2 filter respirator for organic vapour and harmful dust).

| IMPORTANT DATA | |
|
PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE:
COLOURLESS LIQUID OR COLOURLESS TO WHITE CRYSTALS , WITH PUNGENT ODOUR. CHEMICAL DANGERS: The solution in water is a weak acid. The substance is a weak base. Reacts violently with strong oxidants. Attacks many metals forming flammable/explosive gas (hydrogen - see ICSC # 0001). OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: TLV not established. |
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE:
The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its aerosol, through the skin and by ingestion. INHALATION RISK: No indication can be given about the rate in which a harmful concentration in the air is reached on evaporation of this substance at 20°C. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance irritates the eyes, the skin and the respiratory tract. |
