Burns

LONG TERM EXPOSURE

ingestion of harmful amounts is unlikely

CARCINOGEN STATUS

Inhalation

If adverse effects occur, remove to uncontaminated area. Give artificial respiration if not breathing. If breathing is difficult, oxygen should be administered by qualified personnel. If respiration or pulse has stopped, have a trained person administer Basic Life Support (Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation/Automatic External Defibrillator) and CALL FOR EMERGENCY SERVICES IMMEDIATELY.

Skin Contact

Immediately flush contaminated areas with water. Remove contaminated clothing, jewelry, and shoes immediately. Wash contaminated areas with soap and water. Thoroughly clean and dry contaminated clothing and shoes before reuse. Discard footwear which cannot be decontaminated. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.

EYE CONTACT

Immediately flush eyes with a directed stream of water for at least 15 minutes, forcibly holding eyelids apart to ensure complete irrigation of all eye and lid tissues. Washing eyes within several seconds is essential to achieve maximum effectiveness. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.

INGESTION

Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsive person. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Give large amounts of water. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep airway clear. Give more water when vomiting stops. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.

NOTE TO PHYSICIAN

The absence of visible signs or symptoms of burns does NOT reliably exclude the presence of actual tissue damage. Probable mucosal damage may contraindicate the use of gastric lavage.

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS

May release toxic gases.

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA 

Use extinguishing agents appropriate for surrounding fire.

FIRE FIGHTING

Keep unnecessary people away, isolate hazard area and deny entry. Wear NIOSH approved positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus. Move containers from fire area if it can be done without risk. Avoid inhalation of material or combustion by-products. Stay upwind and keep out of low areas. Cool containers with water.

SENSITIVITY TO MECHANICAL IMPACT

Not sensitive

FLASH POINT

not flammable

HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS

Thermal decomposition products or combustion: hydrogen chloride

OCCUPATIONAL RELEASE: Evacuation of surrounding area may be necessary for large spills. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment recommended in Section 8 of the MSDS. Completely contain spilled material with dikes, sandbags, etc. Shut off ventilation system if needed. Reprocess or reuse if possible. Neutralize with soda ash or dilute caustic soda. Collect with appropriate absorbent and place into suitable container. Liquid material may be removed with a vacuum truck. Keep out of water supplies and sewers. This material is acidic and may lower the pH of the surface waters with low buffering capacity. Releases should be reported, if required, to appropriate agencies. Notify Local Emergency Planning Committee and State Emergency Response Commission for release greater than or equal to RQ (U.S. SARA Section 304). If release occurs in the U.S. and is reportable under CERCLA Section 103, notify the National Response Center at (800) 424-8802 (USA) or (202) 426-2675 (USA).

STORAGE

Store and handle in accordance with all current regulations and standards. Store in rubber-lined steel, acid-resistant plastic or glass containers. Keep containers tightly closed and properly labeled. Store in a cool, dry place. Store in a well-ventilated area. Do not store in aluminum container or use aluminum fittings or transfer lines. Dike and vent storage tanks. Keep separated from incompatible substances (see Section 10 of the MSDS).

HANDLING

Avoid breathing vapor or mist. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. When mixing, slowly add to water to minimize heat generation and spattering.

EXPOSURE LIMITS

HYDROGEN CHLORIDE, ANHYDROUS:

HYDROGEN CHLORIDE (HYROCHLORIC ACID)

5 ppm (7 mg/m3) OSHA ceiling, 2 ppm ACGIH ceiling

VENTILATION

Use closed systems when possible. Provide local exhaust ventilation where vapor or mist may be generated. Ensure compliance with applicable exposure limits.

EYE PROTECTION

Wear safety glasses with side shields. Wear chemical safety goggles with a faceshield or chemical splash hood. Provide an emergency eye wash fountain and quick drench shower in the immediate work area.

CLOTHING

Wear chemical resistant clothing and rubber boots when potential for contact with the material exists. Always place plants legs over boots.

GLOVES

Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves.

PROTECTIVE MATERIAL TYPES

neoprene, nitrile, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), rubber, Kappler ® CPF3, Tychem

IMMEDIATELY DANGEROUS TO LIFE OR HEALTH

50 ppm

RESPIRATOR

Where vapor concentration exceeds or is likely to exceed applicable exposure limits, a NIOSH approved respirator with acid gas canister is required. When an air-purifying respirator is not adequate for spills and/or emergencies of unknown concentrations, a NIOSH approved self-contained breathing apparatus or airline respirator with full-face piece is required. A respiratory protection program that meets 29 CFR 1910.134 must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant use of a respirator.

MURIATIC ACID (ALL GRADES)

TOXICITY DATA

Hydrochloric Acid: 900 mg/kg oral-rabbit LD50; 1108 ppm/1 hour(s) inhalation-rat; 3124 ppm/1 hour(s) inhalation-rat LC50. Rinsed Draize Test: 5 mg/30 second(s) rabbit-eye mild. Standard Draize Test: 4% / 24 hour(s) skin-human mild. Inhalation will cause severe irritation and possible burns with coughing and choking. If inhaled deeply, edema and hemorrhage of the lungs may occur. Levels of 10-35 ppm may cause irritation of throat and 50-100 ppm is unbearable for 1 hour. Inflammation, destruction of nasal passages and breathing difficulties may occur with higher concentration and/or erosion of teeth. Contact with eyes causes immediate severe irritation with possible burns, permanent visual impairment, or total loss of sight. Contact with fumes or liquid may produce corrosive burns. Dermal exposure also results in irritation, pain, dermatitis, and ulceration. Ingestion may cause immediate burns of the mouth, esophagus, and stomach. Ingestion may cause intense pain, nausea, vomiting, bleeding, circulating collapse, shock and death.

MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE

RE: respiratory system (including asthma and other breathing disorders)

ECOTOXICITY DATA

FISH TOXICITY

Hydrochloric Acid: 178 mg/L LC50 Goldfish (1 to 2 hour survival time); 100-300 mg/L LC50 Shrimp. 3.6 mg/L 48 hour(s) (static) LC50 Bluegill. This material is believed to be toxic to aquatic life.

FATE  AND TRANSPORT

BIODEGRADATION

This material is inorganic and not subject to biodegradation.

PERSISTENCE

This material is believed not to persist in the environment. This material is believed to exist in the disassociated state in the environment. SOIL: Hydrogen chloride will sink into the soil. The acid will dissolve some soil material (in particular, anything with a carbonate base) and will be somewhat neutralized. The remaining portion is thought to transport downward to the water table. WATER: Dissociates almost completely and will be neutralized by natural alkalinity and carbon dioxide.

BIOCONCENTRATION

This material is believed not to bioaccumulate.

Reuse or reprocess if possible. Dispose in accordance with all applicable regulations.

Subject to disposal regulations

regulations: U.S. EPA 40 CFR 262.
