SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION |
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: white solid. Danger! Toxic. Hygroscopic.
Target Organs: Kidneys, heart, gastrointestinal system, skeletal structures, teeth, nervous system.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
Eye: Contact with eyes may cause severe irritation, and possible eye burns. Exposure to particulates or solution may cause conjunctivitis, ulceration, and corneal abnormalities.
Skin: May cause severe irritation and possible burns. Toxic in contact with skin.
Ingestion: Poison by ingestion. May cause severe digestive tract irritation with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Inhalation: May cause irritation of the respiratory tract with burning pain in the nose and throat, coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and pulmonary edema. Inhalation may be fatal as a result of spasm, inflammation, edema of the larynx and bronchi, chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema. Toxic if inhaled.
Chronic: Chronic inhalation and ingestion may cause chronic fluoride poisoning (fluorosis) characterized by weight loss, weakness, anemia, brittle bones, and stiff joints. Chronic inhalation may cause nasal septum ulceration and perforation.
SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES |
Eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin: Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Ingestion: Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
Inhalation: Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid.
Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically.
