Composition / Information on Ingredients
| Component | CAS No. | Formula | Concentration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trisodium EDTA | 150-38-9 | C10H13N2Na3O8 | 99.5-100% (w/w) |
Concentrations are nominal; lot-specific values appear on the Certificate of Analysis. Components not contributing to classification are omitted.
First-Aid Measures
- 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
- Eye contact causes serious eye damage: pain, redness and corneal injury, which may be permanent.
- 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 contact; eye damage may continue after exposure ends.
Fire-Fighting Measures
- Suitable Extinguishing Media
- Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical, or CO2. Use measures appropriate to local circumstances.
- Unsuitable Extinguishing Media
- Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.
- Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical
- Containers may rupture when heated.
- Protective Equipment
- Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.
- Hazardous Combustion Products
- Nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and sodium oxides on thermal decomposition.
Accidental Release Measures
- Personal Precautions
- Use PPE as described in Section 8. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.
- 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.
Handling and Storage
- 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. Keep away from incompatible materials (see Section 10). Keep containers tightly closed.
- Specific Storage Precautions
- Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool, well-ventilated place away from incompatible materials; do not store in aluminum containers. Minimize dust formation and accumulation.
Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Occupational Exposure Limits
No established 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.
