Section III-HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Clear pale yellow green solution, Chlorine or ozone like odor
Flash Point: Not Applicable
Causes eye, skin and respiratory tract irritation.
Harmful if swallowed. Causes irritation of the gastrointestinal tract, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Oxidizing material. Increases flammability of combustible, organic or other readily oxidizable materials. Contact with acids, organic materials, reducing agents or chlorine donors will produce chlorine dioxide gas and heat. The lower explosive limit (LEL) for chlorine dioxide is 10%. Flush area with large amounts of air to keep the chlorine dioxide concentration below 10%.If allowed to dry, this product can be easily ignited by heat or friction. Do not allow this product to dry on cloth. Oxidation can cause a fire hazard.
ROUTES OF ENTRY
Eyes? YES Skin? YES Inhalation? YES Ingestion? YES
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
EYE CONTACT causes irritation.
SKIN CONTACT may cause irritation. Prolonged contact may cause dermatitis.
INHALATION causes respiratory tract and mucous membrane irritation with sore throat, coughing and difficulty breathing.
INGESTION is harmful. Causes irritation of the gastrointestinal tract, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
NOTE: Upon contact with acids, organic materials, reducing agents or chlorine donors, this product will release CHLORINE DIOXIDE gas. Inhalation of chlorine dioxide can cause respiratory tract irritation, coughing, wheezing and burns of the mucous membranes. Inhalation of large amounts may lead to pulmonary edema and bronchitis. Direct contact with chlorine dioxide causes eye and skin irritation and may cause burns. Chlorine dioxide is toxic by ingestion.
CARCINOGENICITY
NTP? NO IARC? NO OSHA? NO
CHRONIC HEALTH HAZARDS-Oxychlorine compounds have been shown to cause blood disorders in laboratory animals. Prolonged or repeated inhalation of CHLORINE DIOXIDE gas may cause chronic bronchitis or emphysema.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: May aggravate existing medical conditions such as asthma, bronchitis or any other respiratory ailment. NOTE: See Section 8 for Exposure Limits, Section 11 for Toxicological Information and Section 12 for Ecological Information.
Section IV-FIRST AID MEASURES
EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids open while flushing. If irritation persists, call a physician.
SKIN CONTACT: Immediately wash off in flowing water or shower. To prevent fire, rinse contaminated clothing until chemical is fully removed. If irritation persists, get medical attention.
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, oxygen should be administered by qualified personnel. Call a physician.
INGESTION: If person is conscious and able to swallow, give large amounts of water to dilute. If vomiting occurs, keep head below hips to help prevent aspiration. Get medical attention immediately.

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Flood with water. Apply water from a protected location or from a safe distance.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Wear NIOSH/MSHA approved positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing as specified in 29 CFR 1910.156.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Oxidizing material. Increases flammability of combustible, organic or other readily oxidizable materials.
Contact with acids, organic materials, reducing agents or chlorine donors will produce chlorine dioxide gas and heat. The lower explosive limit (LEL) for chlorine dioxide is 10%. Flush area with large amounts of air to keep the chlorine dioxide concentration below 10%. If allowed to dry, this product can be easily ignited by heat or friction. Do not allow this product to dry on cloth. Oxidation can cause a fire hazard.
Section VI-ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Flush with water to dilute. Do not allow contact with rags, paper or other oxidizable materials. For large spills, evacuate area, contain liquid and transfer to closed polyethylene drums. Prevent contact with oxidizers and acids. Do not allow to dry. Keep out of water supply. Flush area with water after liquid is removed.
**NOTE** In the event of an accidental release of this material, the above procedures should be followed. Additionally, proper exposure controls and personal protection equipment should be used (see Section 8: Exposure Control/Personal Protection), and disposal of the material should be in accordance with Section 13: Disposal Considerations.
Section VII-HANDLING AND STORAGE
Do not allow solution to evaporate to dryness. Protect from heat, freezing and ultraviolet light. Keep container closed. Store in a cool, dry location away from in compatible materials. Keep away from food and feed products. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not breathe vapors or mists. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Use with adequate ventilation. Provide a safety shower and eye wash close to where this material is being used.
