1.2. In case of eye contact
- In case of eye contact, remove contact lens and rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for
at least 15 minutes.
- In the case of difficulty of opening the lids, administer an analgesic eye wash (oxybuprocaine).
- If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.
1.3. In case of skin contact
- Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
- Wash off with soap and water.
- If symptoms persist, call a physician.
1.4. If swallowed
- Rinse mouth with water.
- Do NOT induce vomiting.
- Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed.
- If symptoms persist, call a physician or Poison Control Centre immediately.
2. Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
2.1. Inhalation
- May cause nose, throat, and lung irritation.
2.2. Skin contact

Exposure controls / personal protection
Appropriate engineering controls
- Apply technical measures to comply with the occupational exposure limits.
Respiratory protection
- In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.
- Respirator with a vapour filter (EN 141)
- Recommended Filter type: P2
Hand protection
- Impervious gloves
- Take note of the information given by the producer concerning permeability and break through times, and of special workplace conditions (mechanical strain, duration of contact).
- Suitable material: PVC, Neoprene, Natural Rubber
Eye protection
If splashes are likely to occur, wear:
- Goggles
- Face-shield
Skin and body protection
- Long sleeved clothing
- If splashes are likely to occur, wear:
- Neoprene
- Rubber or plastic boots
- Rubber or plastic apron
Hygiene measures
- Eye wash bottles or eye wash stations in compliance with applicable standards.
- When using do not eat, drink or smoke.
- Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.
- Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Environmental exposure controls
- Dispose of rinse water in accordance with local and national regulations.
Additional remarks related with worker exposure:
The substance is a solution of inorganic salts in water which are naturally ocurring. The inorganic salts have a low toxicity and under normal handling and use conditions these inorganic salts are not systemically available. For this reason the human health hazards of the substance are well known. Furthermore inhalation exposure is unlikely (low vapour pressure). Therefore the risks for workers should be considered low if standard personal protective equipment (skin and eye protection) is used.
Additional remarks related with environmental exposure:
The substance is a solution of inorganic salts in water which are naturally ocurring. The inorganic salts have a low ecotoxicity (see section 6.1.3 and 6.1.5). For this reason the environmental hazards of the substance are well known. Therefore the risks for the environment should be considered low if standard environmental exposure controls are used.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
- May be corrosive to metals.
Chemical stability
- Stable under recommended storage conditions.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
- None known.
Materials to avoid
- Metals
Hazardous decomposition products
- none
Disposal considerations
Waste disposal methods
- Contact waste disposal services.
- In accordance with local and national regulations.
Contaminated packaging
- Where possible recycling is preferred to disposal or incineration.
- Clean container with water.
- Dispose of rinse water in accordance with local and national regulations.
- Must be incinerated in a suitable incineration plant holding a permit delivered by the competent authorities.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
