Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Call a physician.
Do not induce vomiting. If swallowed and the person is conscious, immediately give large amounts of water. Get medical attention.
Immediately flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse.
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least fifteen minutes, lifting lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.
Sneezing, sore throat or runny nose.

Unknown/not applicable
Use media appropriate to the primary cause of fire.
N.A.
No hazardous decomposition products.
Will not occur under normal conditions of use (See Sections 10.4 & 10.5).
In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode.
No data available.
Wear appropriate protective equipment as specified in Section 8.
Prevent discharge into the environment. Dike spills and stop leakage where practical. Do not allow material to enter drains.
Ventilate and isolate area. Prevent from entering floor drains. Residues can be diluted with water, neutralized with dilute acid. Absorb neutralized residues with clay, vermiculite, or other inert substance. Place in suitable disposal container.
For disposal information see Section 13. For protective clothing and equipment see Section 8.
Avoid contact and inhalation. Do not get in eyes, on skin, on clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Always add the caustic to water while stirring; never the reverse.
Keep in a tightly closed container, stored in a cooled, dry, ventilated area away from sources of heat, moisture, and incompatibilities. Protect from freezing.
Acids, aluminum, tin and zinc metals.
No incompatibility data found.

A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures below the Airborne Exposure Limits. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source.
For conditions of use where exposure to the dust or mist is apparent, a full-face dust/mist respirator may be worn. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator.
Use chemical safety goggles and/or a full face shield where splashing is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.
Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.

Severe irritant. Effects from inhalation of mist vary from mild irritation to serious damage of the upper respiratory tract, depending on severity of exposure. Severe pneuomonitis may occur.
May cause respiratory tract irritation.
Corrosive! Swallowing may cause severe burns of mouth, throat, and stomach. Severe scarring of tissue and death may result.
Ingestion of large amounts may cause gastrointestinal irritation. Ingestion of large amounts may cause nausea and vomiting, rigidity or convulsions. Continued exposure can produce a coma, dehydration and internal organ congestion.
Corrosive! Contact with skin may cause irritation or severe burns and scarring with greater exposures.
May cause skin irritation.
Corrosive! Causes irritation of eyes, and with greater exposures it can cause burns that may result in permanent impairment of vision, even blindness.
May cause eye irritation.
Not listed as a carcinogen by either NTP or IARC.
Not listed by ACGIH, IARC, NIOSH, NTP or OSHA.
