|
******************************** |
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS: |
ROUTE (S) OF ENTRY.....Skin
contact; eye contact; inhalation |
HUMAN EFFECTS AND SYMPTOMS
OF OVEREXPOSURE: |
ACUTE INHALATION.....Inhalation
of gas or fumes at lower levels may cause irritation
and burning of the throat, caughing and choking. At
higher levels (above 50 ppm), exposure may cause inflamation
and ulceration of the nose, throat or larynx, bronchitis,
pneumonia, and headache. Severe cases may have necrosis
(destruction of tissue) of the tracheal (windpipe) and
bronchial epithelium (cellular level in the braches
of the windpipe), damage to the pulmonary blood vessels
and emphysema (a lung disease characterized by decreased
lung capacity) resulting from laryngeal spasm or pulmonary
edema with possible fatal consequesces. |
CHRONIC INHALATION.....Repeated
or prolonged overexposure may cause erosion and discoloration
of exposed teath, chronic bronchitis and gastritis (inflamtion
of the stomach). |
ACUTE SKIN CONTACT.....Contact
may cause severe irritation, inflamation, ulceration,
necrosis and chemical burns. |
CHRONIC SKIN CONTACT.....Repeated
or prolonged contact may cause chronic irritation and
dermititis. Photosensitation may also occur. |
ACUTE EYE CONTACT.....Contact
may cause severe irritation, conjunctivitis, corneal
necrosis and burns. |
CHRONIC EYE CONTACT.....Conjunctovotos
or effects similar to those of acute exposure may occur.
|
ACUTE INGESTION.....Ingestion
may cause burns of the mouth, throat, esophogus and
stomach with pain, nausea, salivation, vomiting, diarrhea,
chills, shock and intense thirst. Nephritis (inflamation
of the kindneys), feaver and perforation of the intestinal
tract, and circulitory collapse may occur. |
CARCINOGENICITY.....This
product is not listed by NTP, IARC or regulated as a
carcinogen by OSHA. |
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRIVATED
BY EXPOSURE.....Asthma, other respiratory disorders
(bronchitis, emphysema, bronchial hyperactivity), eczema,
skin allergies. |
|
|
FIRST AID FOR EYES.....Immediately
flush eyes with large amounts of water, occasionally
lifting upper and lower lids, for at least15 to 20 minutes.
Severe eye injury can occur, particularly if rinsing
is delayed. Get medical attention immediately. |
FIRST AID FOR SKIN.....Remove contaminated
clothing and shoes immediately. Wash affected area with
soap and large amounts of water for at least 15 to 20
minutes. In case of chemical burns, cover area with
steral, dry dressing. Get medical attention immediately. |
FIRST AID FOR INHALATION.....Remove
to fresh air. Administer oxygen if breating is difficult.
If not breating, give artificial respiration. Immediately
contact a physician. |
FIRST AID FOR INGESTION.....Do
not induce vomiting. If serious, give large amounts
of water or milk. If vomiting persists, administer fluids
repeatedly. Maintain airway and treat shock. If vomiting
occurs, keep head below hips to prevent aspirtation.
Get medical attention immediately. (Dreisbach, Handbook
of Poisoning, 12th Ed.) |

5. FIRE EXTINGUISHING MEASURES: |
|
|
FLASH POINT: |
Not Applicable |
AUTO-IGNITION TEMPERATURE: |
Not Applicable |
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: |
Dry chemicals; carbon dioxide; halon;
water; foam |
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES.....No
fire hazards exist directly from Hydrochloric Acid.
However, when hydrochloric acid comes in contact with
common metals, it can generate hydrogen gas. In sufficient
concentrations hydrogen can form explosive mizxture
in air. Fire fighters exposed to hydrochloric acid vaposr
should wear a self-contained breathing apparatus and
full protection acid resistant clothing. Water spray
should be used to cool fire exposed containers and to
control vapor. |
|
|
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES: |
|
|
SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES...Evacuate
area and deny entry by unauthorized personel. Do not
breath vapors and keep upwind. For large spills, contain
and pump into tanks which have been constructed for
Hydrochloric Acid service. Full acid resistant suits
and self-contained breathing apparatus should be worn
during emergency operations. Knock down vapors with
water spray or water fog. Whater used to knock down
vapors may become corrosive and should be contained
properly for later disposal. Neutralize spill with slaked
lime, sodium bicarbonate or crushed limestone. Since
neutralization with these bases witll generate heat
(exothermic), the reaction can be violent. The acid
should be cooled and diluted before atempting to neutralize.
DO NOT FLUSH TO SEWER BEFORE NEUTRALIZING AND CONSULTING
FEDERAL< STAE AND LOCAL ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS.
For small spills, take up with sand or other absorbant
material and react with dry alkali (soda ash or lime).
Place into containers for later disposal. Adhere to
federal, state and local regulations on reporting releases. |
|
|
STORAGE TEMPERATURE (MIN/MAX): |
Ambient/Ambient |
SHELF LIFE: |
Unlimited in tightly closed containers. |
SPECIAL SENSITIVITY: |
None known |
HANDLING?STORAG PRECAUTIONS.....Keep
container tightly closed when not in use. Hydrochloric
acid should be handled and stored in equipment suitable
designed for acid services. Store in a cool, dry place
in original or similar waterproof containers. |
|
|
EYE PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS.....Spl;ash-proof
safety goggles and a full faceshield to prevent contact. |
SKIN PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS.....Rubber
or neoprene gloves and boots, acid resistant coats and
overalls as appropriated for work conditions. Employee
should wash their hands and face before eating, drinking
or using tobacco products. |
VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS.....Provide
local exhaust or process enclosureventilation to maintain
levels below the recommended exposure limit. |
RESPIRATOR REQUIREMENTS.....Fullface
NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator for acid gasses. Do not
exceed the working limits of the respirator. |
ADDITIONAL PROTECTIVE MEASURES.....Eye
wash and safety showers should be immediately available.
Full acid suits and NIOSH / MSHA approved self contained
breating apparatus should be readily available to handle
major spills. |
