HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION |
|
Heath Effects |
Acute – Swallowed |
Ingestion will result in gastrointestinal Upset. Data suggests that product should be regarded as moderately toxic by ingestion. Higer pH products may be corrosive to mucous membranes and the gastrointestinal tract. |
Acute – Eye |
May cause irreparable damage if not reated immediately. May cause severe eye irritation with potential for permanent injury or blindness via polonged exposure. |
Acute – Skin |
If at high temperature may cause chemical and/or thermal burns. Skin and mucous membrane irritation possible. |
Acute – Inhaled |
Inhalation may cause irritation of nose and mucous membranes, coughing and chest disomfort. This is an unlikely route of entry in normal commercial / industrial usage. |
Chronic |
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may result in burns to exposed areas. |
|
|
FIRST AID |
|
Swallowed |
Induce vomiting. If patient is conscious rinse mouth to remove as much free product as possible and five a glass owater to drink. Guard against aspiration into the lungs. Consult a physician or Poisons Information Centre immediately. |
Eye |
Flush eyes thoroughly with water immediately and continue for at least twenty minutes. DO NOT attempt to remove contact lenses unless properly trained. Transport to Doctor or Hopital immediately. |
Skin |
Remove contaminated clothing and wash aggected body areas with copious quantities of water. A light acid(eg vinegar,lemon juice or cloa drink) may be used to neutralise the alkaline natureof the product. if effects persist seek medical attention. |
Inhaled |
Remvoe from exposure. If effects occur seek medical attention. |
First Aid Facilities |
Ensure an eye bath and safety shower are available and ready for use. |
Other Information |

Other Exposure Info. |
No exposure standards have been established for this material by the National Occupational Health and Safety Commission (NOHSC). However, exposure standards for ingredients are stated above.
TWA – the Time-Weighted Average airborne concentration over an eight hour working day, for a five day working week over an entire working life. e.g. as above, the TWA for ammonia is 25ppm and for Formaldehyde is 1ppm.
STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit) – the average airborne concentration over a 15 minute period which should not be exceeded at any time during a normal eight hour workday. e.g. as above, the STEL for ammonia is 35ppm and for formaldehyde is 2ppm.
According to current knowledge these concentrations should neither impair the health of, nor cause undue discomfort to, nearly all workers. These Exposure Standards are guides to be used in the control of occupational health hazards. All atmospheric contamination should be kept
to as low a level as is workable. Exposure Standards should not be used as fine dividing lines between safe and dangerous concentrations of chemicals.
They are not a measure of relative toxicity.
|
Eng. Controls |
Use only in a well ventilated area. Local exhaust ventilation will be required in confined areas or where natural ventilation is not sufficient to maintain concentrations below exposure limits. |
|
|
PERSONAL PROTECTION |
|
|
Respirator Type |
If engineering controls are not effective in controlling airborne exposure then an approved respirator with a replaceable ammonia vapour filter should be used. Reference should be made to Australian Standards AS/NZS 1715, Selection, Use and Maintenance of Respiratory Protective Devices; and AS/NZS 1716, Respiratory Protective Devices; and AS/NZS 1716, Respiratory Protective Devices, in order to make any necessary changes for individual circumstances. |
Eye Protection |
Safety glasses with side shields or goggles should be worn as described in Australian Standard AS/ANZ 1337 – Eye Protectors for Industrial Applications. |
Glove Type |
Where skin contact is likely to be prolonged or repeated impervious PVC or nitrile rubber gloves are recommended. |
Clothing |
Suitable protective clothing should be worn e.g. cotton overalls buttoned at neck and wrist. When large quantities are handled the use of plastic aprons and rubber boots is recommended. |
Protective Equip. |

Spills and Disposal |
|
Spills & Leaks |
Slippery when spilt – avoid accidents. Increase ventilation. Evacuate all unnecessary personnel. Wear protective clothing to minimise skin and eye exposure. If possible contain large spills, absorb with inert absorbent such as vermiculite, sand or dirt and place in suitably labelled steel container. Mop up material and place in to the same container. Hose down residues or minor spills with excess water. |
Disposal |
Dispose should be in accordance with the relevant local, state and federal government regulations. The recommended method of disposal is controlled incineration by approved agent.
|
|
|

|
Fire/Explos. Hazard |
This product is non-flammable. However, following evaporation of aqueous component, residue may burn if involved in a fire. |
Hazardous |
Fumes, smoke, ammonia and oxides or carbon (carbon monoxide and Combustion Byproducts carbon dioxide).
|
Fire Fighting Procedures |
Fire fighters to wear Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) and full protective clothing if risk of exposure to vapour or products of combustion to minimise skin exposure. Water spray may be used to cool down heat exposed containers. |
Extinguishing Media |
Use appropriate fire extinguisher for surrounding environment. |
