Potential Health Effects
----------------------------------
Inhalation:
Dust may cause irritation of the nose, throat, and lungs. Ammonia vapors
released upon decomposition may cause irritation of the upper respiratory
tract, with coughing, vomiting, and redness to the mucous membranes. Higher
concentrations (> 1000 ppm) may cause restlessness, tightness in the chest,
pulmonary edema, weak pulse, and cyanosis.
Ingestion:
Large oral doses may cause irritation to the gastrointestinal tract.
Skin Contact:
May cause irritation with redness and pain.
Eye Contact:
May cause irritation, redness and pain.
Chronic Exposure:
No information found.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:
No information found.
4. First Aid Measures
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If
breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Ingestion:
Give several glasses of water to drink to dilute. If large amounts were
swallowed, get medical advice.
Skin Contact:
Immediately flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes.
Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly
clean shoes before reuse. Get medical attention if irritation develops.
Eye Contact:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting
upper and lower eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention if irritation
persists.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Fire:
Not considered to be a fire hazard. Irritating and toxic ammonia gas may form
in fires.
Explosion:
Not considered to be an explosion hazard.
Fire Extinguishing Media:
Use any means suitable for extinguishing surrounding fire.
Special Information:
In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved
self-contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in the pressure
demand or other positive pressure mode.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Spills: Sweep up and containerize for reclamation or disposal. Vacuuming or wet sweeping may be used to avoid dust dispersal. US Regulations (CERCLA) require reporting spills and releases to soil, water and air in excess of reportable quantities. The toll free number for the US Coast Guard National Response Center is (800) 424-8802.
7. Handling and Storage
Keep in a tightly closed container, stored
in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Protect against physical damage. Store at
temperatures below 80F (27C) to minimize decomposition.
Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product
residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the
product.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Airborne Exposure Limits:
None established.
Ventilation System:
A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee
exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred
because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source,
preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Please refer to the
ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended Practices,
most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):
For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and
engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator (NIOSH type N95
or better filters) may be worn. If oil particles (e.g. lubricants, cutting
fluids, glycerine, etc.) are present, use a NIOSH type R or P filter. For
emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a
full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING: Air-purifying
respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Skin Protection:
Wear protective gloves and clean body-covering clothing.
Eye Protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where dusting or splashing
of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench
facilities in work area.
