Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:YES
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS IN CASE OF
INGESTION. VERY HAZARDOUS IN CASE OF SKIN CONTACT, OF EYE CONTACT,
OF INHALATION. HAZARDOUS IN CASE OF SKIN CONTACT. THE AMOUNT OF
TISSUE DAMAGE DEPENDS ON LENGTH OF CON TACT. SEVERE OVEREXPOSURE
CAN PRODUCELUNG DAMAGE, CHOKING, UNCONSCIOUS OR DEATH.

CAN PRODUCE INFLAMMATION & BLISTERING. INHALATION OF DUST WILL
PRODUCE IRRITATION TO GASTROINTESTINAL OR RESPIRATORY TRACT,
CHARACTERIZED BY BURNING, SNEEZING AND C OUGHING. PROLONGED
EXPOSURE MAY RESULT IN SKIN BURNS AND ULCERATIONS. INFLAMMATION OF
THE EYE IS CHARACTERIZED BY REDNESS, WATERING AND ITCHING. SKIN
INFLAMMATION IS CHARACTERIZED BY ITCHING, SCALING, REDDENING OR
