LD50 LC50 Mixture:SEE INGREDIENT 1
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:YES OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:SYMPS & HLTH HAZS FOR DILUTE NITRIC
ACID ARE EXPECTED TO BE LESS SEV THAN EXPOS TO CONCENTRATED NITRIC
ACID. HOWEVER, SINCE NITRIC ACID IS IN SOLN AT 1% (OR 10,000 PPM)
OR GREATER, HLTH HAZS FOR CONCE NTRATED NITRIC ACID ARE GIVEN. THIS
SOLN MAY BE HARMFUL IF INHALED, INGESTED OR CONTACTED W/SKIN OR
(EFTS OF OVEREXP)
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:CADMIUM NITRATE: IARC MONOGRAPHS, VOL
58, PG 119, 1993:GROUP 1.
Effects of Overexposure:HLTH HAZ: EYES. CADMIUM SALTS ARE CONSIDERED
CARCIN ACCORDING TO OSHA, NTP & IARC. CADMIUM DUST CAUSES BOTH
ACUTE & CHRONIC EFTS. DUST IS LESS TOXIC THAN FUME DUE TO LARGER
PARTICLE SIZE. ACUTE EFTS P RIMARLY EFT LUNGS BUT MAY ALSO EFT
OTHER ORGANS SUCH AS KIDNEY. CHRONIC POIS TO LUNGS IS IRREVERSIBLE.
FOLLOWING (ING 6)
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.

First Aid:EYES: FLUSH W/WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES OCCASIONALLY
LIFTING UPPER & LOWER EYELIDS. SKIN: REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING,
THEN FLUSH W/WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. WASH CLOTHING
THOROUGHLY BEFORE REUSE. INHAL: RMOVE TO FRESH AIR. INGEST: DO NOT
INDUCE VOMITING. GET IMMED MED HELP. IF PATIENT IS CONSCIOUS, GIVE
LARGE QUANTITIES OF WATER OR MILK. IF IRRITATION CONTINUES, GET
MEDICAL ATTENTION.

Extinguishing Media:APPROPRIATE TO SURROUNDING FIRE CONDITIONS.
Fire Fighting Procedures:USE NIOSH APPROVED SCBA AND FULL PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT .
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:CONCENTRATED HNO*3 IS NOT COMBUST BUT IS
STRONG OXIDIZER & ITS HEAT OF RXN W/REDUCING AGENTS OR COMBUSTS MAY
CAUSE IGNIT. CAN REACT W/METALS TO RELS (SUPDAT)

Spill Release Procedures:VENT AREA. DILUTE SPILL W/WATER & NEUT W/SODA
ASH, LIMESTONE, ETC. WIPE UP & PUT INTO SEALED CNTNR FOR PROPER
DISP. WASH SPILL SITE OFF W/WATER AFTER MATL PICK UP IS COMPLETE.
WEAR CHEM RESIST GLASSES , GLOVES & CLTHG. WEAR NIOSH APPRVD RESP.
Neutralizing Agent:SODA ASH, LIMESTONE, ETC.

Handling and Storage Precautions:CONCENTRATED NITRIC ACID WILL ATTACK
SOME FORMS OF PLASTICS, RUBBER & COATINGS. STORE AT ROOM TEMP. KEEP
TIGHTLY SEALED WHEN NOT IN USE.
Other Precautions:WARNING: IRRITANT. CORROSIVE. CARCINOGEN. HAVE
IMMEDIATE AVAILABILITY OF AN EYE WASH IN CASE OF EMERGENCY. AVOID
INHALATION, INGESTION AND CONTACT WITH EYES AND SKIN. WASH
CAREFULLY AFTER USE.

Respiratory Protection:WEAR NIOSH APPROVED RESPIRATOR.
Ventilation:USE IN A CHEMICAL FUME HOOD.
