Precautions
: Risk of cancer depends on duration and level of exposure to the sulfuric acid mist. Do not breathe vapor or mist. Do not ingest. Do not get in eyes or on skin or clothing. Use only with adequate ventilation. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Wash thoroughly after handling. : This material is considered hazardous by the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200). : Dermal contact. Eye contact. Inhalation. Ingestion.
OSHA/HCS status
Routes of entry Potential acute health effects Inhalation : Mists and vapors may cause irritation of the nose and throat with sneezing, sore throat or runny nose. Overexposure may cause increased pulmonary resistance, transient cough and bronchoconstriction. Severe overexposure may result in lung collapse and pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs) which can be fatal. Ingestion Skin Eyes : Severe burning and pain in the mouth, throat and abdomen. Vomiting, diarrhea and perforation of the esophagus and stomach lining may occur which can be fatal. : Concentrated solution may cause pain, severe burns and scarring to the skin. : Immediate pain, severe burns and corneal damage, which may result in permanent blindness. Repeated and/or prolonged exposure to mists may cause eye irritation with tearing, pain or blurred vision. Contains material that can cause target organ damage.

Fire-fighting measures
: Non-flammable. : For small fires use dry chemical or carbon dioxide. For large fires, flood fire area with water from a distance. Expect violent reaction with water. Do not get solid stream of water on spilled material. : None known. : Decomposition products may include the following materials: nitrogen oxides sulfur oxides : Wear a NIOSH/MSHA approved self-contained breathing apparatus if vapors or mists are present and full protective clothing. For fighting fires in close proximity to spill or vapors, use acid-resistant personal protective equipment. Evacuate residents who are downwind of fire. Prevent unauthorized entry to fire area. Dike area to contain runoff and prevent contamination of water sources. Neutralize runoff with lime, soda ash or other suitable neutralizing agents (see Deactivating Chemicals, Section 6). Cool containers that are exposed to flame with streams of water until fire is out. : Not available. : Hazardous in contact with oxidizing materials, forming explosive mixtures. Sulfur burns with a pale blue flame that may be difficult to see in daylight.

Consult local authorities for acceptable exposure limits. Recommended monitoring : Personal, workplace atmosphere or biological monitoring may be required to determine the effectiveness of the ventilation or other control measures and/or the necessity to use procedures respiratory protective equipment. Engineering measures : Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors below their respective occupational exposure limits. Use only with adequate ventilation. : Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location. : A NIOSH/MSHA approved air-purifying respirator equipped with acid gas/fume, dust, and mist cartridges for concentrations up to 10 mg/m 3. An air-supplied respirator if concentrations are higher or unknown. : Use gloves appropriate for work or task being performed. Recommended: neoprene, vinyl or rubber, PVC. : Safety eyewear should be used when there is a likelihood of exposure. Recommended: Chemical splash goggles or face shield. : Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling this product. Recommended: Full suit. : Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
