<br /> _ SECTION :.6:::;HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION;. ;
<br /> Careloogen�ity� Hydroohbric acid is not listed as a carcinogen by the NTP,IARC,or OSHA.
<br /> Summary d Rjak� See Geniam Industrial MSDS 30f0 details of the bealth effects of hydrogen chloride gas.Hydrochloric acid solutionls
<br /> will generate bBen chloride gas with W its beattb effects.These are irritating to the skin.eyes,and mucous membranes of the upper re=-
<br /> and(tax 17.The severity of eye ia'ury from splasbe:depe�d�upon quantity,conceatratiadstrsngtl4 and duration of the contact'
<br /> vbaal damage has been roporte�.Ingestion of hydrochloric acid causes corrosion of the mucous membranes.esophagus,and
<br /> stomat:h,as vmU as nausea,vomiting,intense thirst,and diarrbea.Erosion of exposed teeth may occur.Circulatory collapse and death are
<br /> possiible.Medical Conditions Aggravated by Long-Term Exposure: None reported.Target Organs: Skin,eyes.URT.Primary
<br /> Entry: Inhalation skin contact Acute Effeeta: Cturosive skin and eye burns,tissue damage.and severe irritation of the URT.Chronic
<br /> Etfeds:Nene reported.FLRST AID: Eyes.Immediately flusb eyes,including under the eyelids,gently but thoroughly with plenty of
<br /> ntming watt for at lest IS minutes Skin.Rinse the affected art&with flooding amounts of water and then wash it with soap and water.
<br /> Remove contaminated clothing under a safety shower.Inb data.Remove the exposed person b fresh air restore and/or support his or her
<br /> breathing as needed.Have qualified mt:dicai personnel administer oxygen as required.Iagestlon.Not likely.Should this type of exposure
<br /> occur,and the exposed Penn is responsive.give him or her 2 to 3 glasses of water,then milk of magnesia or limewater to drink.Do not
<br /> induce vomiting.Spontaneous laryngeal spasms can occur.Never give anything by mouth to someone who is unconscious or convulsing.
<br /> Get swilkal help In plant,paramedk,community)for W exposures. Seer prompt medical assistance for further treatment,obscrva-
<br /> tion rad support after first aid.Note to pbyddan:Treatment for re:pitatory effects following inhalation of hydrogen chloride gas includes
<br /> udag a S�sodium bicarbonate solution as m aerosol;rosin g a proper fluid balaaa(diuretics may be hiseful);rad deaeasiag the in-
<br /> tlammatory respoaee o!the lungs by administering steroids anhort-term basis(2 to 4 days).Severe inhalation exposure requires
<br /> bospitaliration rad obstxvatioa(72-hour minimum)for the delayed onset of pulmonay edema.Serial tfiest X rays rad zapiratory mpPmt.
<br /> iadtidis�g iambation may be iegnired a:an early intervention
<br /> Sptll/i.eak: Notify safety pasoanel,evacuate uanae:sary personnel,eliminate W sources of ignition immediately(hydrogen gas may be
<br /> generated),rad provide ade�tiate ventilation.Cleanup personnel need a full set of protective dothiag,including a selfcoatuned breatlttag
<br /> apparatus(SCBA).Small spills rad residue can be txsvertd with an exuss of a mixture of soda ash and slaked lime.After neutralization,do
<br /> not flush sonars directly m a atwtx or iota lakes.ponds,or strt&ms.Waste Dlspaaal: Contact yoursupplier or a liceatod contractor for
<br /> detat7ed recommeadaiions.The WowaDle txiat:eatration of neutral salt is the effluent discharge is apt to be regulated;study rad follow
<br /> Federal,:sats,rad local regulations.Consider saving the wase bydrothlasic acid far use as a neutralizing agent dhhtiag deaaup operations
<br /> of baric materials.

<br /> SECTION S. .SPECIAL 'ROTECTION P4FORMATION ............
<br /> G les: Always wear protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles.Where splashing ar is possible,wea full face shield.Follow
<br /> OSSA eye-and face-protection regulations(29 CFR 1910.133).Respirator: Weer•a NI 0SH-approved respirator per Genium reference 88
<br /> for the maximum-use concentrations and/or the exposure limits cited is section 2.Follow OSHA respirator regulations(29 CFR 1910.134).
<br /> For emergency or nonroutine operations(spills or cleaning reactor vessels and storage tanks),wear m SCBA.All respirators must be acid
<br /> resistant Wa.-ning: Air-purifying respirators will soon protect workers is oxygen-deficient atmospheres.Other. Rear impervious gloves,
<br /> boots,aprons,gauntlets,enc.,to prevent my contact with this material..All clothing must be acid r:-sistantVentilation: Install and operate '
<br /> general and lout maximum-explosion-proof ventilation systems powerful enough to maintain airborne levels of hydrogen chloride below
<br /> the OSHA PEL cited in section 2.Local exhaust ventilation is prefentif because it prevents dispersion of the contaminant into the general
<br /> work art&by eliminating it at its course.Coosult the latest edition of Conium reference 103 for detailed recommendations.Make ventilation
<br /> system dnctwatk rad exposed fm rompoaeats acid resistant Safety Stations: Make emergeary eyewash stations.safety/quick-drench
<br /> :bowers.and washing fuilitia available is wtxft art&:.Coataminated Equipment: Contact lenses pose a:pecial hazard;soft lenses may
<br /> absorb irritants,rad W leans concentrate them Do Thor wear contact leases in any work area.Remove contaminated clothing and launder it
<br /> before wearing it again;eleam itis mattxiat from your shoes rad equipment Other: Design W engineering systems to be acid resistant and
<br /> ertplosion proof(hydrogen gas rosy be accideaWly generated).Comments: Practiu good personal hygiene;always wash thoroughly after
<br /> usm�this materul and before eating,drinking,smoking,using the toilet,m applying cosmetics.Keep it off your cbthiag and equipment
<br /> Avoid transferring it from your hands to your mouth while eating,drinking,or smoking.Do not eat,drink.or sumtike in my work area Do
<br /> not inhale hydrochloric acid vapor.
<br /> SECTION 9. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS AND
<br /> Storage/Se;regadow Store hydrochloric acid in closed containers in A cool,dry.well-ventilated oma away from sources of ignition,
<br /> strong oxidizers,strong bases,out of direct sunlight,and away from incompatible chemicals(see sect S).Protect containers from physical
<br /> damage.SpecialHandling/Stotrage: Storage areas should have acwresistant floors and approved drainage facilities.Use nonsparkitig
<br /> tools m art&s wound tanks and p where hydrogen gas ma be generated.Engineering Controls:Make sure ali engineering systems
<br /> (production,transportation)are of maximum-explosion-proof design.Ground and bond all containers and pipelines,etc,used in shipping,
<br /> transferring,reactmg,production.and sampling operations to prevent sutic:parks.Hydroggen gas ma become tmocentrated inside metal
<br /> equipment;perform operations to search out possible hidden areas of hydrogen gas carefully.Other Precautions: Carefully follow your
<br /> suppliers recommendations concerning the proper handling and steerage procedures for hydrochloric acid.Provide emergency neutralization
<br /> matarals(aoda ash,limestone,or slaked lime)and equipment near storage and use areas.
