After inhalation: Loosen clothing as necessary and position individual in a comfortable position Maintain an unobstructed airway Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell Take precautions to ensure your own safety Remove source of exposure or move person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing Immediately call a POISON CONTROL CENTER or seek medical attention If breathing has stopped, trained personnel should begin rescue breathing Avoid mouth-to-mouth contact by using a barrier device If the heart has stopped, immediately start cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) After skin contact: Rinse affected area with soap and water If symptoms develop or persist, seek medical attention Avoid direct contact and wear chemical protective clothing, if necessary Immediately take off all contaminated clothing Gently blot or brush away excess product Rinse skin with lukewarm, gently flowing water until medical aid is available Immediately call a POISON CONTROL CENTER or seek medical attention Wash contaminated clothing before re-use or discard After eye contact: Rinse/flush exposed eye(s) gently using water for 15-20 minutes If symptoms develop or persist, seek medical attention Avoid direct contact and wear chemical protective gloves, if necessary Rinse eyes cautiously with lukewarm, gently flowing water for several minutes, while holding the eyelids open Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do so Continue rinsing until medical aid is available Immediately call a POISON CONTROL CENTER or seek medical attention After swallowing: Rinse mouth thoroughly Seek medical attention if irritation, discomfort, or vomiting persists Immediately call a POISON CONTROL CENTER or seek medical attention Do not induce vomiting and rinse mouth If vomiting occurs naturally, lie on your side, in the recovery position If breathing has stopped, trained personnel should begin rescue breathing Avoid mouth-to-mouth contact by using a barrier device If the heart has stopped, immediately start cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed Acute symptoms and effects: Not determined or not applicable. Delayed symptoms and effects: Not determined or not applicable. Immediate medical attention and special treatment Specific treatment: Not determined or not applicable. Notes for the doctor: Not determined or not applicable. SECTION 5: Firefighting measures Extinguishing media Suitable extinguishing media: Use appropriate fire suppression agents for adjacent combustible materials or sources of ignition Unsuitable extinguishing media: Not determined or not applicable. Specific hazards during fire-fighting: Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating gases and vapors Special protective equipment for firefighters: Use typical firefighting equipment, self-contained breathing apparatus, special tightly sealed suit Special precautions: Not determined or not applicable. SECTION 6: Accidental release measures Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Ensure adequate ventilation Ensure air handling systems are operational Wear protective eye wear, gloves and clothing Environmental precautions: Should not be released into the environment Prevent from reaching drains, sewer or waterway Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Wear protective eye wear, gloves and clothing Absorb with non-combustible liquid-binding material (sand, diatomaceus earth (clay), acid binders, universal binders) Dispose of contents / container in accordance with local regulations Reference to other sections: Not determined or not applicable. SECTION 7: Handling and storage Precautions for safe handling: Use only with adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing mist or vapor. Do not eat, drink, smoke or use personal products when handling chemical substances. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Keep container tightly sealed. Protect from freezing and physical damage. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area. SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection Only those substances with limit values have been included below. Occupational Exposure limit values: Country (Legal Basis) Substance Identifier Permissible concentration United States (OSHA) Phosphoric Acid 7664-38-2 OSHA PEL TWA 1.0 mg/m³ Phosphoric Acid 7664-38-2 STEL: 3 mg/m³ ACGIH Phosphoric Acid 7664-38-2 ACGIH TLV TWA 1.0 mg/m³ Phosphoric Acid 7664-38-2 ACGIH TLV STEL 3.0 mg/m³ NIOSH Phosphoric Acid 7664-38-2 NIOSH REL TWA 1.0 mg/m³ Phosphoric Acid 7664-38-2 NIOSH REL ST 3.0 mg/m³ Phosphoric Acid 7664-38-2 IDLH: 1000 mg/m³ Biological limit values: No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s). Information on monitoring procedures: Monitoring of the concentration of substances in the breathing zone of workers or in the general workplace may be required to confirm compliance with an OEL and adequacy of exposure controls. Biological monitoring may also be appropriate for some substances. Appropriate engineering controls: Emergency eye wash fountains and safety showers should be available in the immediate vicinity of use or handling. Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapor and mists below the applicable workplace exposure limits (Occupational Exposure Limits-OELs) indicated above. Personal protection equipment Eye and face protection: Safety goggles or glasses, or appropriate eye protection. Skin and body protection: Select glove material impermeable and resistant to the substance. Wear appropriate clothing to prevent any possibility of skin contact. Respiratory protection: If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below recommended exposure limits (where applicable) or to an acceptable level (in countries where exposure limits have not been established), an approved respirator must be worn. General hygienic measures: Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
