SECTION 2: Hazards identification

Potential health effects

Eye: Contact may cause mild eye irritation including stinging, watering, and redness. Skin: Contact may cause mild skin irritation including redness, and a burning sensation. Prolonged or repeated contact can worsen irritation by causing drying and cracking of the skin leading to dermatitis (inflammation). No harmful effects from skin absorption are expected. Inhalation (Breathing): No information available. Studies by other exposure routes suggest a low degree of toxicity by inhalation. May contain or liberate hydrogen sulfide - see Other Comments section below. 8EP Ingestion (Swallowing): No harmful effects expected from ingestion. Signs and Symptoms: Effects of overexposure may include irritation of the nose and throat, irritation of the digestive tract, nausea and diarrhea. Cancer: Inadequate evidence available to evaluate the cancer hazard of this material. See Section 11 for carcinogenicity information of individual components, if any. Target Organs: No data available for this material. Developmental: No data available for this material. Other Comments: This material may contain or liberate hydrogen sulfide, a poisonous gas with the smell of rotten eggs. The smell disappears rapidly because of olfactory fatigue so odor may not be a reliable indicator of exposure. Effects of overexposure include irritation of the eyes, nose, throat and respiratory tract, blurred vision, photophobia (sensitivity to light), and pulmonary edema (fluid accumulation in the lungs). Severe exposures can result in nausea, vomiting, muscle weakness or cramps, headache, disorientation and other signs of nervous system depression, irregular heartbeats, convulsions, respiratory failure, and death. Pre-Existing Medical Conditions: Conditions aggravated by exposure may include skin disorders.
