<br /> quantity, tont. and duration of contact. Excessive acute exposure to FrCl vapors mists
<br /> promptly irritates the upper respiratory tract and can result in coughing, burning of
<br /> the throat, choking sensation and, If inhaled deeply, pulmonary edema, prolonged or
<br /> repeated low level exposure may cause teeth erosion. Skin exposure can cause burns;
<br /> repeated or prolonged exposure to dilute soln. ray cause derratitiz. Ingestion can
<br /> cause severe burns and possible laryngeal spasm. FIRST AID:
<br /> Eve Contact: Contact physician! I�� flush with running wate�`15 rin.
