Section 3: Hazard Identification


Emergency overview:
	Irritant.
	Irritating to eyes, respiratory system and skin.

Eye: Causes eye irritation.

Skin: Causes skin irritation.

Ingestion: May be harmful if swallowed. May cause digestive tract
irritation.

Inhalation: May be harmful if inhaled.  Is irritating to mucous 
membranes and the upper respiratory tract.

As far as is known, the chemical, physical and toxicological properties 
have not been thoroughly investigated.

 


Section 4: First Aid Measures



Eyes: In case of contact, flush eyes with copious amounts of 
water for at least 15 minutes, holding eyelids open. Seek immediate
medical attention.

Skin: In case of contact, immediately wash skin with mild soap and 
copious amounts of water.  Flush skin for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical
attention.

Ingestion: If swallowed, wash out mouth with water provided person 
is conscious.  If victim is alert and conscious, give one cupful of water.
Seek medical attention. 

Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air.  If breathing is difficult, 
give oxygen.  If not breathing, give artificial respiration.

Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively.
