Important Data
|
Physical State; Appearance:
COLOURLESS LIQUID
, WITH PUNGENT ODOUR.
Physical Dangers:
The vapour is heavier than air
and may travel along the ground; distant ignition possible.
Chemical Dangers:
The substance decomposes
on heating
or
on burning
producing
toxic fumes
including
nitrogen oxides
.
The substance is a medium strong base.
Reacts
with
strong oxidants
,
acids
and
organic compounds
causing fire and explosion hazard.
Attacks metal, some forms of plastic, rubber
Occupational Exposure Limits:
TLV: 5 ppm as TWA, 15 ppm as STEL (skin) A4 (not classifiable as a human carcinogen); (ACGIH 2008).
EU OEL: 5 ppm as TWA, 10 ppm as STEL (EU 2002).
momentary value of 10 ppm (30 mg/m39 should not be exceeded
OSHA PEL: TWA 25 ppm (75 mg/m3)
NIOSH REL: TWA 10 ppm (30 mg/m3) ST 25 ppm (75 mg/m3)
NIOSH IDLH: 200 ppm See: 109897
|
Routes of Exposure:
The substance can be absorbed into the body
by inhalation of its vapour,
through the skin
and
by ingestion.
Inhalation Risk:
A harmful contamination of the air can be reached very quickly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
Effects of Short-Term Exposure:
The substance
is corrosive to
the eyes,
the skin
and
the respiratory tract.
Corrosive on ingestion.
Inhalation may cause lung oedema, but only after initial corrosive effects on eyes and/or airways have become manifest.
Inhalation may cause pneumonitis.
Exposure at high levels may result in severe swelling of the throat.
Medical observation is indicated.
Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure:
Lungs may be affected by repeated or prolonged exposure to the vapour.
The substance may have effects on the teeth
, resulting in dental erosion

|
N O T E S
|
The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation is therefore essential.
Immediate administration of an appropriate inhalation therapy by a doctor or a person authorized by him/her, should be considered.
Do NOT take working clothes home.
