*  Hazards Identification  *
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO    IARC:NOOSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: ACID CAN CAUSE IRRITATION OF
    EYES, NOSE, THROAT. BREATHING MIST PRODUCES RESPIRATORY DIFFICULTY,
    CONTACT WITH SKIN & EYES CAUSES IRRITATION & SKIN BURNS. CHRONIC:
    INHALATION OF MIST CAN CAUSE I NFLAMMATION OF THE UPPER RESPIRATORY
    TRACT LEADING TO BRONCHITIS.
Effects of Overexposure:CONTACT WITH BATTERY FLUID MAY CAUSE DRYING OF
    THE SKIN WHICH MAY RESULT IN IRRITATION & DERMATITIS. LIQUID OR
    VAPOR CONTACT MAY RESULT IN EYE IRRITATION & ACID BURNS. PROLONGED
    CONTACT TO STRONG ACID  FUMES MAY RESULT IN EROSION OF THE TEETH
    ENAMEL.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:SULFURIC ACID MIST CAUSES COUGHING
    AND WILL BURN EYES AND SKIN.
*  First Aid Measures  *
First Aid:INHALATION-MOVE VICTIM TO FRESH AREA. EYE-WASH THE EYES WITH
    ATTENTION. SKIN-FLUSH AREA WITH PLENTIFUL AMOUNTS OF RUNNING WTAER.
    REMOVE C ONTAMINATED CLOTHING & OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION.
    INGESTION-WASH OUT MOUTH WITH RUNNING WATER. GIVE MILK TO DRINK. DO
    NOT INDUCE VOMITING. CALL PHYSICIAN.
