,
HYGROSCOPIC
POWDER.
Physical Dangers:
Chemical Dangers:
The solution in water is a strong base, it reacts violently with acid and is corrosive to aluminium, tin and zinc.
Reacts
with
ammonium salts
causing fire hazard.
Occupational Exposure Limits:
TLV: (Borate compounds, inorganic) 2 mg/m3 as TWA, 6 mg/m3 as STEL; A4 (not classifiable as a human carcinogen); (ACGIH 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
.

is corrosive to
the eyes,
the skin and
the respiratory tract.
Corrosive on ingestion.
Medical observation is indicated.
