Health hazards

H350: May cause cancer. H304: May be fatal if swallowed and enters airways. H319: Causes serious eye irritation. H336: May cause drowsiness or dizziness. H373: May cause damage to organs or organ systems through prolonged or repeated exposure. H313: May be harmful in contact with skin. : Hydrogen sulphide is highly toxic and may be fatal if inhaled. Hydrogen sulphide (H2S), an extremely flammable and toxic gas, and other hazardous vapours may evolve and collect in the headspace of storage tanks, transport vessels and other enclosed containers. May dull the sense of smell, so do not rely on odour as an indication of hazard. H2S has a broad range of effects dependent on the airborne concentration and length of exposure: 0.02 ppm odour threshold, smell of rotten eggs; 10 ppm eye and respiratory tract irritation; 100 ppm coughing, headache, dizziness, nausea, eye irritation, loss of sense of smell in minutes; 200 ppm potential for pulmonary oedema after >20-30 minutes; 500 ppm loss of consciousness after short exposures, potential for respiratory arrest; >1000ppm immediate loss of consciousness, may lead rapidly to death, prompt cardiopulmonary resuscitation may be required. Do not depend on sense of smell for warning. H2S causes rapid olfactory fatigue (deadens sense of smell). There is no evidence that H2S will accumulate in the body tissue after repeated exposure. Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking. This product contains benzene which may cause leukaemia (AML - acute myelogenous leukaemia). May cause MDS (Myelodysplastic Syndrome). Safety Hazards : May ignite on surfaces at temperatures above auto-ignition temperature. Electrostatic charges may be generated during pumping. Electrostatic discharge may cause fire. Flammable vapours may be present even at temperatures below the flash point.
