Emergency telephone number For leak, fire, spill, or accident emergencies, call: 1 800 / 424-9300 (CHEMTREC - U.S.A. & Canada) 1 303 / 595 9048 (Medical - Call Collect) 2. Hazards identification Emergency Overview Clear liquid with a sharp, pungent, vinegar-like odor Combustible liquid Potential health effects Eyes Skin Inhalation Ingestion Chronic Toxicity Corrosive to the eyes and may cause irreversible eye damage. Corrosive to skin. Inhalation of corrosive fumes/gases may cause coughing, choking, headache, dizziness, and weakness for several hours. Pulmonary edema may occur with tightness in the chest, shortness of breath, bluish skin, decreased blood pressure, and increased heart rate. Harmful if swallowed. Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause blackening and hyperkeratosis of the skin, bronchitis and pharyngitis, erosion of exposed front teeth, and chronic inflammation of the nose, throat and bronchial tubes. Chronic exposures at levels up to 200 ppm have produced palperbral edema, hypertrophy of lympth nodes and conjunctival hyperemia. Persons with pre-existing skin disorders or eye problems or impaired respiratory function may be more susceptible to the effects of this substance. (Proprietary Component): Page 1 / 7
