Signs and Symptoms of Exposure:
Inhalation (breathing): Respiratory System Effects. May cause irritation and chemical burns to the upper
respiratory tract with burning pain in the nose and throat, coughing wheezing and shortness of breath. Significant
exposures may cause delayed pulmonary edema. Inhalation may be fatal as a result of spasm, inflammation,
edema of the larynx and bronchi, chemical pneumonitis, and pulmonary edema.
Skin: Skin irritation: Exposure to skin may cause slight skin redness, irritation Prolonged contact and occlusion
may cause more severe symptoms.
Eye: Serious eye damage. May cause eye burns. May cause watering, redness, and irritation to the eye lids,
conjunctiva, and cornea. Severe burns may cause corneal perforation.
Ingestion (Swallowing): Gastrointestinal System Effects: Ingesting this material may cause gastrointestinal (GI)
tract irritation and burns. Symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, gastritis.
Other Health Effects: Repeated exposure may cause erosion of teeth.
Toxicity: When in a solution, this substance may be corrosive to the gastrointestinal mucosa, skin, eyes, and
respiratory tract. The amount of damage is dependent on the concentration of the material exposed to, and the
duration and frequency of the exposure. Solid material can be hazardous in the eye, respiratory system, and
gastrointestinal (GI) tract, partly due to increased adherence to mucosa. Exposure to vapors or mist from
concentrated solutions can also cause symptoms.
Interaction with Other Chemicals Which Enhance Toxicity: None known.
