cornea inflammation and may cause for loss of eyesights Owing to harmful, not drink it or put it into the mouth Environmental impact : May have harmful effects on water environments Physical and chemical danger : Though non-flammable, react with strong acids vigorously In contacting with metals such as aluminum or zinc, etches them severely and generates hydrogen gas with may cause for flashing in closed room Name of category (UN classification system) : Corrosive material FIRST AND MEASURES Inhalation : As irritative severely, right away, remove to fresh air place and stay in quiet and wash out inside of mouth with water Page of Skin contact : Date : January 31,2014 Revision : 01 As irritative and corrosive to skin such as wounds severely, right away, remove stained clothes, wash with plenty of water with soap, and see doctor quickly Eye contact : As irritative severely and cause for loss of eye-sights, right away, wash out with plenty of running water for over 15 minutes without rubbing, and see eyes doctor quickly Ingestion : Stay in quiet and induce medical treatment as quickly as possible In case of ceasing of breathing, release clothes, remove residual matters in the mount and apply artificial respiration FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Extinguishing media: Water, foam, CO2 gas, dry chemical or others Firefighting procedure: Remove containers to safety windward place and extinguish with plenty of water At heating to heating to high temperature, hazardous gas will generate, so it is required to wear protective clothes at extinguishing ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Health precautions : When working with the substance, wear appropriate protective gear ( protective face mask, protective gloves and clothes) and work upwind of material Environmental precautions : To prevent the leaked solution from flowing to the river, lake or sea Removal procedure : recover to the plastic container with cover In case of leakage of big amount, keep off other persons by putting rope or others and prevent flowing away to river, lake or sea by making fence by sand bags or others In this treatment, it is required to wear protective clothes HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling : Technical Measures (Preventing Exposure by Handlers, Preventing Combustion and Explosion) Wear protective gear and handle in well-ventilated area After working with substance, take measures like washing hands or gargling Precautions ( Local Ventilation, Facility-wide Ventilation, Preventing Aerosol and Dust Generation) Handle substance in a well-ventilated place Page of Date : January 31,2014 Revision : 01 Handling Precautions ( Preventing Mixing and Contact, etc.) Prevent to contact with strong acidic chemicals and metals such as aluminum or zinc After using, put cover of container tightly Storage : Technical Measures Keep in the location out of direct sunlight where moisture is low Storage separately from strong acids, metals such zinc or aluminum in hazardous cargo warehouse with key Safe containers and packaging Use containers provided by Okuno-Auromex (Thailand) Co., Ltd EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION Necessary facilities Local air-ventilation units are required It is best to have equipment to wash the face and body near the work area Protective Gear : Respiratory protection : protective make, etc Face protection : Protective face make, etc Eye protection : Chemical goggles, etc Hand protection : rubber gloves, etc Physical protection : Safety shoes, clothes, etc PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Physical Appearance Shape : Powder Color :
