First Aid

First Aid:EYES: IMMED FLUSH W/LG QTY OF RUNNING WATER FOR AT LEAST 15
MIN WHILE HOLDING LIDS APART. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO NEUTRALIZE
W/CHEMICALS. GET MED ATTN IMMED. SKIN: IMMED FLUSH W/WATER FOR AT
LEAST 15 MIN. R EMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING WHILE SHOWERING.
CONTINUE WASHING W/ WATER. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO NEUT W/CHEM AGENTS.
GET MED ATTN UNLESS MINOR BURN. INGEST:GET MEDICAL ATTN IMMED.
DILUTE W/LG QTY OF (SUPDATA

Fire Fighting

Extinguishing Media:CARBON DIOXIDE,DRY CHEMICAL. USE WATER FOG TO KNOCK
DOWN VAPORS.
Fire Fighting Procedures:USE NIOSH/MSHA APPRVD POSITIVE PRESSURE SCBA &
FULL PROT EQUIP COOL FIRE-EXPOS TANK W/H2O. "NEVER" INTRODUCE
H2O/OTHER LIQ INTO TANKS. (SEE SUPP)
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:NONFLAMM.STRONG OXIDIZING AGENT.AT HIGH
CONC PROD MAY CAUSE IGNIT BY CONT W/ COMBUST LIQ & SOLID.HIGHLY
FLAMM & EXPLO HYDROGEN GAS MAY FORM BY ACTION (SEE SUPP)

Accidental Release

Spill Release Procedures:TREAT ANY LEAK IN PIPELINE/EQUIP AS AN ACID
LEAK.USE EXTREME CAUTN UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE.IMMED ZONE OFF CONTAM
AREA. ADJUST VALVES TO ISOLATE SYS & STOP LEAKS.FLUSH AREA W/
COPIOUS AMT OF H2O;SPREAD SODA ASH/LIME TO NEUT REMAINING
ACID.(SEE ING 4)
Neutralizing Agent:SODA ASH OR LIME.

Handling

Handling and Storage Precautions:USE W/ ADEQUATE VENTILATION.STORE IN A
COOL AREA.WEAKER STRENGTHS ARE HIGHLY CORROSIVE TO MOST
METALS,PARTICULARLY AT CONC <60 BAUME W/ HYDROGEN GAS.
Other Precautions:KEEP OUT OF CHILDREN'S REACH.FOR BODY,SKIN,& HAND
PROTECTION,CREAM & OINTMENTS DO NOT AFFORD ADEQUATE PROTECTION.WHEN
DILUTING ALWAYS ADD ACID SLOWLY TO WATER.IF WATER IS ADDED TO
ACID,BOILING WILL OC CUR ALONG WITH THE PRODUCTION OF HEAT.

Exposure Controls

Respiratory Protection:NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED RESPIRATOR APPROPRIATE FOR
EXPOSURE OF CONCERN .THE EXTREMELY IRRITATING PROPERTIES OF THE
CONCENTRATED VAPOR OR MIST SERVES AS A WARNING OF RESPIRATORY
EXPOSURE. TRAIN EMPLO YEES IN THE USE AND CARE OF RESP EQUIP.
Ventilation:USE WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
Protective Gloves:RUBBER
Eye Protection:CHEM WORK GOGG.MAY ADD FULL (SEE ING 7)
Other Protective Equipment:SFTY SHOWER.EYE WASH FOUNTAIN.HAZ FROM
FALLING OBJECTS-HARD HATS.LIQ LEAK HAZ-SOFT BRIMMED HAT/CAP.RUB
SFTY (SEE ING 5)
Work Hygienic Practices:PROTECTIVE CLOTHING SHOULD BE CLEANED INSIDE
AND OUT EACH TIME IT IS USED.
Supplemental Safety and Health
