| First Aid Measures | Back to Contents | 【Ingestion】
Get medical aid. 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. DO NOT use mouth-to-mouth respiration. If breathing has ceased apply artificial respiration using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a mask. | 【Skin】
Get medical aid. Immediately flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. | 【Eyes】
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid. |
| Handling and Storage | Back to Contents | 【Storage】
Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Store protected from moisture. | 【Handling】
Wash thoroughly after handling. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use with adequate ventilation. Wash clothing before reuse. |
| Hazards Identification | Back to Contents | 【Inhalation】
Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause ulceration and perforation of the nasal septum if inhaled in excessive quantities. Inhalation of fumes may cause metal fume fever, which is characterized by flu-like symptoms with metallic taste, fever, chills, cough, weakness, chest pain, muscle pain and increased white blood cell count. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. Can produce delayed pulmonary edema. | 【Skin】
Causes skin irritation. May cause skin sensitization, an allergic reaction, which becomes evident upon re-exposure to this material. May cause irritation with burning pain, itching and redness. | 【Eyes】
Causes eye irritation. Exposure to particulates or solution may cause conjunctivitis, ulceration, and corneal abnormalities. Contact with the eyes may cause corneal damage. | 【Ingestion】
Causes gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause hemorrhaging of the digestive tract. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. | 【Hazards】
Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. | 【EC Risk Phrase】

| Exposure Controls/Personal Protection | Back to Contents | 【Personal Protection】
Eyes: Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European Standard EN166. Skin: Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin exposure. Clothing: Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin exposure. | 【Respirators】
A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29 CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use. | 【Exposure Effects】
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. Effects may be delayed. Individuals with Wilson's disease are unable to metabolize copper. Thus, copper accumulates in various tissues and may result in liver, kidney, and brain damage. | 【Poison Class】

| Fire Fighting Measures | Back to Contents | 【Fire Fighting】
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes. Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) to prevent contact with thermal decomposition products. Use extinguishing media appropriate to the surrounding fire. Substance is noncombustible. Extinguishing media: Substance is noncombustible; use agent most appropriate to extinguish surrounding fire. In case of fire use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam. | 【Fire Potential】
Non-combustible, substance itself does not burn but may decompose upon heating to produce corrosive and/or toxic fumes. |
| Accidental Release Measures | Back to Contents | 【Small spills/leaks】
Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal container. Clean up spills immediately, using the appropriate protective equipment. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide ventilation. |
| Stability and Reactivity | Back to Contents | 【Incompatibilities】
Moisture, heat, potassium, sodium, alkali metals. | 【Stability】
Stable at room temperature in closed containers under normal storage and handling conditions. | 【Decomposition】
Hydrogen chloride, irritating and toxic fumes and gases, chloride fumes. | 【Combustion Products】
Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. |
