Composition/information on ingredients Name CAS number % by weight OXALIC ACID 144-62-7 5-1 ethanol, 2-amino-, ethanedioate (21) (salt) 2799-19-1 3-7 Name CAS number % by weight 1/6
4. Eye contact Skin contact Inhalation Ingestion 5. First-aid measures In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with cool running water. Remove contact lenses and continue flushing with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention immediately. In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Apply calcium gluconate gel, if available, or milk of magnesia to affected area. Get medical attention immediately. Wash clothing before reuse. Clean shoes thoroughly before reuse. If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If exposed person is not breathing, give artificial respiration or oxygen applied by trained personnel. Get medical attention. If material has been swallowed and the exposed person is conscious, give small quantities of water to drink. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately. If available, take several calcium antacid tablets (eg Tums) or several tablespoons of milk of magnesia. Fire-fighting measures Auto-ignition temperature Flammable limits Hazardous thermal decomposition products Special remarks on fire hazards Special remarks on explosion hazards Fire-fighting media and instructions Special protective equipment for fire-fighters 6. Personal precautions Environmental precautions Methods for cleaning up Decomposition products may include the following materials carbon dioxide carbon monoxide nitrogen oxides Accidental release measures Use an extinguishing agent suitable for the surrounding fire. Dyke area of fire to prevent runoff. In a fire or if heated, a pressure increase will occur and the container may burst. Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure mode. Use personal protective equipment as required. Avoid contact of spilt material and runoff with soil and surface waterways. Use a water rinse for final clean-up. 2/6
7. Handling Storage 8. Engineering measures Handling and storage Do not ingest. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not breathe vapour or spray. Keep container closed. Use only with adequate ventilation. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not mix with bleach or other chlorinated products - will cause chlorine gas. Keep out of reach of children. Store in a closed container. Keep container tightly closed. Store between the following temperatures and 5 C Exposure controls/personal protection Personal protection Eyes Use chemical splash goggles. For continued or severe exposure wear a face shield over the goggles. Hands Use chemical-resistant, impervious gloves. Skin Respiratory Use only with adequate ventilation. If user operations generate dust, fumes, gas, vapour or mist, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep worker exposure to airborne contaminants below any recommended or statutory limits. Provide suitable facilities for quick drenching or flushing of the eyes and body in case of contact or splash hazard. Wear suitable protective clothing. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is inadequate and occupational exposure limits are exceeded.
