Corrosive. Product can be absorbed through the skin and may cause nausea, headache and general
discomfort. May cause skin sensitization.
Eye and skin contact, ingestion, inhalation. Absorption through skin.
Contact causes severe skin irritation and possible burns. Repeated skin contact may cause allergic skin
reactions. Eye irritation may be severe and result in injury. Inhalation of mist or vapor can cause damage to
the upper respiratory tract and to the tissue depending on severity of exposure. Effects can range from
mild irritation of mucous membranes to severe pneumonitis and destruction of lung tissue. Ingestion can
cause very serious damage to the mucous membranes or other tissues with which contact is made.
