DANGER—CORROSIVE!: CAUSES EYE, SKIN AND RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION. MAY CAUSE EYE AND SKIN BURNS. MAY CAUSE ALLERGIC SKIN REACTION. POSSIBLE CANCER HAZARD.
Relevant routes of exposure: Skin, Inhalation, Eyes
Potential Health Effects Inhalation: Mists, vapors or liquid may cause severe irritation or burns. Prolonged or repeated breathing may cause ulceration of nasal membranes.
Skin contact: Contact with broken skin may lead to formation of firmly marginated "chrome sores". Product contains chromium, which may cause an allergic skin sensitization reaction. Massive overexposures may lead to kidney failure and death. A component in this product may be harmful or fatal if absorbed through the skin, especially if skin is damaged.
Eye contact: This product is severely irritating to the eyes and may cause irreversible damage including burns and blindness. Contact with this product may cause severe eye damage.
Ingestion: This product may produce corrosive damage to the gastrointestinal tract if it is swallowed.
Existing conditions aggravated by exposure: Eye, skin and respiratory disorders. Kidney disorders. This material is considered hazardous by the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200). See Section 11 for additional toxicological information.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Inhalation: If mist or vapor of this product is inhaled, remove person immediately to fresh air. Seek medical attention if symptoms develop or persist.
Skin contact: Remove contaminated clothing and footwear. For skin contact, flush with large amounts of water. Seek immediate medical attention. If irritation persists, repeat flushing and get medical attention. Discard any shoes or clothing items that cannot be decontaminated.
Eye contact: In case of contact with the eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water for 15 minutes, and seek immediate medical attention.
Ingestion: Get immediate medical attention. Do not induce vomiting. Give one to two glasses of water or milk. Never give anything by mouth to a victim who is unconscious or is having convulsions.
Notes to physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively.

Special firefighting procedures: Wear full protective clothing. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Unusual fire or explosion hazards: This product is an aqueous mixture which will not burn. Hazardous combustion products: Irritating and toxic gases or fumes may be released during a fire.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Use personal protection recommended in Section 8, isolate the hazard area and deny entry to unnecessary and unprotected personnel.
Environmental precautions: Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Block any potential routes to water systems.
Clean-up methods: Absorb spill with inert material. Shovel material into appropriate container for disposal.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling: Prevent contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Do not breathe vapor and mist. Wash thoroughly after handling. Provide adequate ventilation. For industrial use only. Do not take internally.
Storage: For safe storage, store between 4.4 °C (39.9 °F) and 37.8 °C (100°F) Keep container tightly closed and in a cool, well-ventilated place away from incompatible materials. Protect from freezing. For information on product shelf life, please review labels on container or check the Technical Process Instruction. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION Employers should complete an assessment of all workplaces to determine the need for, and selection of, proper exposure controls and protective equipment for each task performed.
