Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
CORROSIVE; causes burns. Irritating to respiratory system, skin and eyes.
Classification (DPD)
C;R34. Xi;R37 POISON SCHEDULE S6, Poison
Other physicochemical hazards
Very corrosive to skin, eyes and respiratory system. . Strong oxidising acid; exothermic reaction with alkalis; corrode metals; liberate hydrogen cyanide from cyanide compounds. Contact with other material may cause fire. Avoid contact with materials as specified in HUMAN HEALTH Very corrosive to skin and eyes. Liquid and mist cause severe burns to all body tissue. May be fatal if swallowed or inhaled. Inhalation may cause lung damage. Will cause severe burns. If vapours are produced in enclosed spaces do not use without respiratory protection. See section 11 for additional information on health hazards.
Environmental hazards
Totally miscible with water and will spread in water systems. Acid can cause local pH change in water systems and could affect aquatic organisms. Oxidising; reaction/damage to organic materials can occur. Spillages can cause slippery surfaces. The Environment Protection Agency (EPA) or other state or local regulatory body must be informed of large or uncontrolled discharges to land or water.
