Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: CORROSIVE! INHALATION CAN CAUSE
    COUGHING, CHOKING, & INFLAMATION OF THE RESPIRATORY TRACT.
    SWALLOWING CAN CAUSE BURNS TO MOUTH & G.I. TRACT. EYE CONTACT CAN
    CAUSE SEVERE BURNS & DAMAGE. SKIN CO NTACT CAN CAUSE SEVERE BURNS
    AND DEEP ULCERS & DISCOLOR SKIN. CHRONIC: HYPOCALCEMIA,BONE AND
    JOINT DAMAGE.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:DATA PER MSDS
Effects of Overexposure:SEVERE IRRITATION OF THE NOSE, THROAT, UPPER
    RESPIRATORY TRACT, EYES, SKIN AND MUCOUS MEMBRANES. VERY CORROSIVE
    AND CAN CAUSE SEVERE BURNS AND DAMAGE. LONG TERM EXPOSURES SELDOM
    OCCUR DUE TO THE CORRO SIVE PROPERTIES OF THE ACID.TARGET ORGANS
    EYES,SKIN AND RESPIRATORY SYSTEM.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH A HISTORY OF AILMENTS
    OR WITH A PRE-EXISTING DISEASE INVOLVING THE EYES, SKIN, OR
    RESPIRATORY TRACT MAY BE AT INCREASED RISK FROM EXPOSURE.
*  First Aid Measures  *
First Aid:INHALATION:REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. RESUSCITATE IF NOT BREATHING.
    GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. EYES:IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER
    ATTENTION. S KIN:REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING. WASH WITH SOAP AND
    WATER. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. INGESTION:DO NOT INDUCE
    VOMITING. GIVE NOTHING BY MOUTH IF UNCONSCIOUS. GET IMMEDIATE
    MEDICAL ATTENTION.
*  Fire Fighting Measures  *
Flash Point:NONE
Extinguishing Media:WATER SPRAY GIVES MINIMUM HAZARD
Fire Fighting Procedures:FIRE FIGHTERS SHOULD USE NIOSH APPROVED SCBA &
    FULL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT WHEN FIGHTING CHEMICAL FIRE. USE WATER
    SPRAY TO COOL NEARBY CONTAINERS EXPOSED TO FIRE.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:MAY FORM EXPLOSIVE MIXTURE WITH AIR.DO
    NOT USE A WATER STREAM.
*  Accidental Release Measures  *
Spill Release Procedures:SMALL SPILL: FLUSH WITH WATER AND NEUTRALIZE
    WITH ALKALINE MATERIAL. SEWER NEUTRALIZED MATERIAL WITH EXCESS
    WATER. LARGE SPILL: EVACUATE AND VENTILATE AREA. IF POSSIBLE, STOP
    LEAK. DIKE TO RETAIN RUN  OFF. NEUTRALIZE & PICK UP WITH ABSORBENT
    MATERIAL.
Neutralizing Agent:SODA ASH, LIME OR OTHER SUITABLE ALKALINE MATERIAL.
