Emergency overview:
Combustible, corrosive
Harmful by inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed. Causes burns. May
cause sensitization by skin contact. Lachrymator. Target organ(s): Central nervous
system.
Potential Health Effects:
Eye:
Causes burns; lachrymator
Skin:
Causes burns; harmful if absorbed through skin
Inhalation:
Material is extremely destructive to mucous membrane tissue and to
the upper respiratory tract. Harmful if inhaled.
Ingestion:
