POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS

No data found.

Section 4: FIRST AID MEASURES

Inhalation: Remove source of contamination or move victim to fresh air.
Eye Contact: Immediately flush the contaminated eye(s) with lukewarm, gently flowing

water for 20 minutes, by the clock, holding the eyelid(s) open. Take care not to rinse
contaminated water into the non-affected eye. If irritation persists, obtain medical attention
immediately.

Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing, shoes, and leather goods (e.g. watchbands,
belts). As quickly as possible, flush contaminated area with plenty lukewarm, gently flowing
water for at least 10, by the clock. If irritation persists, obtain medical attention immediately.
Completely decontaminate clothing, shoes, and leather goods before reuse or discard.

Ingestion: NEVER give anything by mouth if victim is rapidly losing consciousness, or is
unconscious or convulsing. Have victim rinse mouth thoroughly with water. DO NOT
INDUCE VOMITING. Have victim drink 240 to 300 mL (8 to 10 oz.) of water. If vomiting
occurs naturally, rinse mouth and repeat administration of water. If breathing has stopped,
trained personnel should begin artificial respiration or, if the heart has stopped,
cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) immediately. Transport victim to an emergency facility
immediately.

Additional treatment: Do not delay medical attention to give additional first aid, but the
following procedure may be helpful if materials are readily available. If victim is conscious
give immediately, by mouth, a few glasses of milk or a dilute solution of any soluble calcium
salt: calcium lactate, lime water, finely pulverized chalk or plaster. Large amounts of calcium
are required to inactivate oxalate by precipitating it as the insoluble calcium oxalate salt. DO
NOT INDUCE VOMITING.

Section 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Flash Point: Not Applicable
Explosive Limits: Lower: Not Applicable

Upper: Not Applicable
Extinguishing Media: Use any means suitable for surrounding fire.
Protection of Firefighters: Wear full fire-fighting turnout gear (full Bunker gear), and

respiratory protection (SCBA). Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers and to
protect personnel.

Fire and Explosion Hazards: Product is not considered to be an explosion hazard.
However, contact with most metals causes formation of flammable and explosive hydrogen
gas.

Combustion and Thermal Decomposition Products: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide,
and formic acid. Fumes may be highly toxic and irritating.

Section 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Spill: Sweep or shovel spilled substance into clean, dry, labeled containers and cover.
