Important Data
|
Physical State; Appearance:
COLOURLESS
CRYSTALLINE POWDER.
Physical Dangers:
Chemical Dangers:
The substance decomposes
on heating
or
on burning
producing
toxic and corrosive fumes
including
hydrogen chloride
(see ICSC 0163),
nitrogen oxides
,
sulfur oxides
.
Reacts
violently with
bases
causing fire and explosion hazard.
Attacks some metals.
Occupational Exposure Limits:
TLV: 0.1 mg/m3 as TWA; (skin); A4 (not classifiable as a human carcinogen); (ACGIH 2004).
MAK not established.
OSHA PEL: none
NIOSH REL: Ca TWA 0.1 mg/m3 skin See Appendix A
NIOSH IDLH: Ca N.D. See: IDLH INDEX
|
Routes of Exposure:
The substance can be absorbed into the body
by inhalation
and
through the skin.
Inhalation Risk:
Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly on spraying or when dispersed, especially if powdered.
Effects of Short-Term Exposure:
The substance
is irritating to
the eyes
,
the skin
and
the respiratory tract
.
Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure:
Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis.
Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization, allergic conjunctivitis.
Repeated or prolonged inhalation exposure may cause asthma.
The substance may have effects on the
liver
and
kidneys
.
This substance is probably carcinogenic to humans.

Environmental
Data
|
This substance may be hazardous to the environment; special attention should be given to aquatic organisms and soil organisms.
The substance may cause long-term effects in the aquatic environment.
|
|
N O T E S
|
Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is suggested.
The symptoms of asthma often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation are therefore essential.
Anyone who has shown symptoms of asthma due to this substance should avoid all further contact with this substance.
Carrier solvents used in commercial formulations may change physical and toxicological properties.
Do NOT take working clothes home.
Difolatan, Folcid, Foltaf, Haipen, Merpafol, Ortho 5865, Sabsoir, Sanspor, Santar, Sulfenimede and Nalco 7046 are trade names.
