Important Data
|
Physical State; Appearance:
PINK HYGROSCOPIC CRYSTALS.
Physical Dangers:
Chemical Dangers:
The substance decomposes on heating producing sulfur oxides and manganese oxides.
Occupational Exposure Limits:
TLV: as Mn 0.2 mg/m3 as TWA; (ACGIH 2006).
MAK: (as Mn) (Inhalable fraction) 0.5 mg/m3
Pregnancy risk group: C;
(DFG 2005).
|
Routes of Exposure:
The substance can be absorbed into the body
by inhalation of its aerosol
and
by ingestion.
Inhalation Risk:
Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly when dispersed, especially if powdered.
Effects of Short-Term Exposure:
Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure:
The substance may have effects on the central nervous system.
