Ingestion: () Inhalation: () Skin Contact: () Eye Contact: () Primary Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic): Carcinogenity Listings: OSHA: () NTP: () IARC: () Signs & Symptoms of Exposure: Ingestion: Single dose oral toxicity is considered to be low. Small amounts swallowed incidental to normal handling operations are not likely to cause injury; swallowing amounts larger than that may cause injury. Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation or ulcerations. Inhalation: Vapors are unlikely due to physical properties. Dust may cause irritation to upper respiratory tract. Skin Contact: Short single exposure not likely to cause significant skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause skin irritation, even a burn. May cause more severe response if skin is damp or if material is confined to skin. May cause more severe response if skin is abraded (scratched or cut). When dissolving, the heat produced may cause more intense effects as well as thermal burns. Not classified as corrosive according to DOT. A single prolonged exposure is not likely to result in the material being absorbed through skin in harmful amounts. Eye Contact: Product may cause slight eye irritation. Dusts may cause severe irritation with corneal injury. Effects may be slow to heal. When dissolving, the heat produced may cause more intense effects as well as thermal burns.
