The most important adverse physicochemical, human health and environmental effects
Skin corrosion produces an irreversible damage to the skin; namely, visible necrosis through the epidermis and into the
dermis. Spillage and fire water can cause pollution of watercourses.
- Hazard statements
H272 May intensify fire; oxidiser.
H302 Harmful if swallowed.
H314 Causes severe skin burns and eye damage.
H361d Suspected of damaging the unborn child.
H410 Very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects.
- Precautionary statements
P210 Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No
smoking.
P260 Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P280 Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
P303+P361+P353 IF ON SKIN (or hair): Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water or
shower.
P305+P351+P338 IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present
and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
P310 Immediately call a POISON CENTER/doctor.
P370+P378 In case of fire: Use sand, carbon dioxide or powder extinguisher to extinguish.
