Classification, hazard (H) and precautionary (P) statements and pictograms per OSHA HCS 2024 (29 CFR 1910.1200, Appendices A–C), aligned with GHS Rev. 7.

Concentrations are nominal; lot-specific values appear on the Certificate of Analysis. Components not contributing to classification are omitted.

Eyes

Rinse with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Seek medical attention immediately.

Skin

Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing. Wash with soap. Get medical attention immediately.

Inhalation

Move person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Get medical attention immediately.

Ingestion

Do Not Induce Vomiting! Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If conscious, wash out mouth with water. Get medical attention immediately.

Most Important Symptoms and Effects

• Causes burns to the skin, eyes and mucous membranes; eye contact may cause permanent damage including blindness; ingestion burns the mouth, throat and stomach.
• Inhalation may irritate the nose, throat and respiratory tract (coughing, sore throat).
• Ingestion may cause nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain; larger amounts may cause systemic poisoning.
• Inhalation may cause coughing, shortness of breath and headache; high concentrations may cause systemic poisoning.

Immediate Medical Attention and Special Treatment

• Immediate medical attention is required after eye or skin contact or ingestion; tissue damage may continue after exposure ends.

Suitable Extinguishing Media

Water spray or fog in large quantities. Do NOT use dry chemical or CO2.

Unsuitable Extinguishing Media

Do not use dry chemical, CO2, or foam.

Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical

Oxidizer: may intensify fire and ignite combustible materials (wood, paper, oil). Fire may release corrosive and toxic gases. Containers may rupture when heated.

Protective Equipment

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.

Hazardous Combustion Products

Oxygen (supports combustion) and heat; pressure can build in closed or unvented containers.

Personal Precautions

Use PPE as described in Section 8. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.

Hazard-Specific Precautions

Keep away from combustible materials. Do not absorb with sawdust, paper or other combustible absorbents. Do not touch spilled material without protective equipment. Neutralize residue only with a method suitable for the material, then collect.

Environmental Precautions

Prevent leakage or spillage from entering drains, sewers, or waterways.

Containment & Cleanup

Absorb with inert material. Collect in appropriate waste container. Dispose per applicable regulations.

Safe Handling

Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep container closed when not in use.

Safe Storage

Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from combustible materials and heat. Keep away from incompatible materials (see Section 10). Keep containers tightly closed.

Specific Storage Precautions

Store in the original vented container, cool and out of sunlight, away from combustibles, organics and metals. Never return material to the container. Use only clean, compatible equipment (high-purity aluminum, stainless steel, HDPE, glass).

Occupational Exposure Limits

Engineering Controls

Use adequate ventilation. Provide eyewash stations and quick-drench showers accessible to areas of use.

Eye/Face Protection

Wear chemical safety goggles or face shield.

Skin Protection

Wear chemical-resistant gloves and protective clothing.

Respiratory Protection

Use a NIOSH-approved respirator (N95/P100 for particulate, organic vapor or acid gas cartridge as appropriate to the substance) when exposure limits may be exceeded or visible mist or dust is generated.

Exposure limits sourced from NIOSH Pocket Guide, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1000 and ACGIH TLVs.
