PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE:
WHITE CRYSTALS.
PHYSICAL DANGERS:
CHEMICAL DANGERS:
The substance decomposes
on heating
producing toxic fumes including sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, hydrogen chloride, phosgene.
OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS (OELs):
TLV: ppm; 5 mg/m3 (skin) (ACGIH 1993-1993).
OSHA PEL: none
NIOSH REL: Ca TWA 5 mg/m3 See Appendix A
NIOSH IDLH: Potential occupational carcinogen No data
|
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE:
The substance can be absorbed into the body
by inhalation and
through the skin.
INHALATION RISK:
Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly on spraying or when dispersed, especially if powdered.
EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE:
The substance
irritates
the eyes and
the skin.
EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE:
Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis.
Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization.
