SECTION 2: Hazards identification
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW *** Form-paste Color-red Odor-sweet May be harmful if swallowed. May cause eye, skin and respiratory tract irritation.
Potential health effects
Eye contact Irritating. May cause tearing, reddening and/or swelling. May injure eye tissue if not removed promptly. Skin Contact Irritating. Prolonged contact with material may cause more severe irritation. Inhalation May cause irritations of the respiratory tract. If misted, causes irritation of mucous membranes, nose, eyes, and throat. May cause coughing and difficulty in breathing. Ingestion May be harmful if swallowed. May cause irritation to the mucous membranes of the mouth, throat, and digestive tract.
Health hazards
Prolonged inhalation of iron oxide dust is known to produce a condition known as siderosis. On X- rays it appears to be a benign pneumoconiosis and is not associated with pulmonary fibrosis or disability unless there is concurrent exposure to other fibrosis producing materials such as silica. Amorphous silica may cause respiratory irritation but does not cause silicosis based on animal testing by NIOSH. Long term or repeated exposure to amorphous silica has caused lung effects in animals. Inhalation of high dust levels of barium sulfate may cause baritosis, an irritation of the lung tissue which is not incapacitating and usually is reversible. Because this product is a free-flowing liquid or paste, dust inhalation is not an expected route of exposure.
