2. COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS
3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Eye
Can cause permanent eye injury. Symptoms include stinging, tearing, redness, and
swelling of eyes. Can injure the cornea and cause blindness.
Skin
Can cause permanent skin damage. Symptoms may include redness, burning, and
swelling of skin, burns, and other skin damage. Additional symptoms of skin
contact may include: allergic skin reaction (delayed skin rash which may be
followed by blistering, scaling and other skin effects), Passage of this
material into the body through the skin is possible, and skin contact may be
harmful.
Swallowing
Swallowing this material may be harmful . Symptoms may include severe stomach
and intestinal irritation (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea), abdominal pain, and
vomiting of blood. Swallowing this material may cause burns and destroy tissue
in the mouth, throat, and digestive tract. Low blood pressure and shock may
occur as a result of severe tissue injury.
Inhalation
Breathing this material may be harmful or .
Symptoms of Exposure
Signs and symptoms of exposure to this material through breathing,
swallowing, and/or passage of the material through the skin may
include: skin rash, stomach or intestinal upset (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea),
irritation (nose, throat, airways), cough, choking.
Developmental Information
Based on the available information, risk to the fetus from maternal exposure to
this material cannot be assessed.
Cancer Information
This material is not listed as a carcinogen by the International
Agency for Research on Cancer, the National Toxicology Program, or
the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
Eyes
If material gets into the eyes, immediately flush eyes gently with water for at
least 15 minutes while holding eyelids apart. If symptoms develop as a result of
vapor exposure, immediately move individual away from exposure and into fresh
air before flushing as recommended above. Seek immediate medical attention.
Skin
Immediately flush skin with water for at least 15 minutes while removing
contaminated clothing and shoes. Seek immediate medical attention. Wash clothing
before reuse and discard contaminated shoes.
Swallowing
Seek immediate medical attention. Do not induce vomiting. Vomiting will cause
further damage to the mouth and throat. If individual is conscious and alert,
immediately rinse mouth with water and give milk or water to drink. If possible,
do not leave individual unattended.
Inhalation
If symptoms develop, immediately move individual away from exposure and into
fresh air. Seek immediate medical attention; keep person warm and quiet. If
Note to Physicians
Probable mucosal damage may contraindicate the use of gastric lavage. Measures
against circulatory shock, respiratory depression and convulsions may be needed.
Preexisting disorders of the following organs (or organ systems) may be
aggravated by exposure to this material: skin, lung (for example, asthma-like
conditions), eye.

Small Spill
Absorb liquid on vermiculite, floor absorbent or other absorbent material. Scoop
or scrape up. Put in container for recovery or disposal.
Large Spill
Persons not wearing protective equipment should be excluded from area of spill
until clean-up has been completed. Stop spill at source. Dike to prevent
spreading. Absorb with inert material. The absorbent (and surface soil to a
depth sufficient to remove all microbiocide) is then shoveled into a pail or
drum and treated with enough decontaminant solution to wet the solid thoroughly.
Let these containers stand open for 48 hours to avoid the buildup of pressure,
then seal and dispose of by burying as landfill. The decontaminated area is
washed with additional decontaminant solution and then flushed into a chemical
or municipal sewer. Do not discharge spills and cleaning runoffs into open
bodies of water. Remove clothing promptly; launder before reuse. Wash skin with
soap and water. Decontaminant solution: sodium bisulfite solutions (about 11%
solids content) decompose the product rapidly. Laboratory tests indicate that
the microbiocide is almost completely deactivated within 30 minutes when treated
with at least 4 equivalents of decontaminating solution. A volume
ratio of 20/1 decontaminant/active microbiocide is recommended.
Handling
Containers of this material may be hazardous when emptied. Since emptied
containers retain product residues (vapor, liquid, and/or solid), all hazard
precautions given in the data sheet must be observed.
Storage
Store in cool and dry place. Avoid keeping the material in direct sunlight.

Eye Protection
Chemical splash goggles and face shield (8" min.) in compliance with OSHA
regulations are advised; however, OSHA regulations also permit other type safety
glasses. (Consult your industrial hygienist.)
Skin Protection
Wear resistant gloves such as: nitrile rubber, butyl rubber, Wear normal work
clothing covering arms and legs. Wear chemical-resistant apron, or in emergency
conditions, chemical-resistant clothing and boots. Other protective equipment:
Respiratory Protections
If workplace exposure limit(s) of product or any component is exceeded (see
exposure guidelines), a NIOSH/MSHA approved air supplied respirator is advised
in absence of proper environmental control. OSHA regulations also permit other
NIOSH/MSHA respirators (negative pressure type) under specified conditions (see
your industrial hygienist). Engineering or administrative controls should be
implemented to reduce exposure.
Engineering Controls
Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust)ventilation to
maintain exposure below TLV(s).
