2 Tetraethylammonium perchlorate Page Number: Section 4. First Aid Measures Eye Contact Skin Contact Serious Skin Contact Inhalation Serious Inhalation Ingestion Serious Ingestion Check for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 5 minutes. Cold water may be used. Get medical attention. In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water.

Fire and Explosion Data Flammability of the Product Auto-Ignition Temperature Flash Points Flammable Limits Products of Combustion Fire Hazards in Presence of Various Substances May be combustible at high temperature. These products are carbon oxides (CO, CO), nitrogen oxides (NO, NO...), halogenated compounds. Slightly flammable to flammable in presence of heat, of combustible materials, of organic materials. Explosion Hazards in Presence of Various Substances Risks of explosion of the product in presence of mechanical impact: Slightly explosive in presence of open flames and sparks, of heat, of combustible materials, of organic materials, of metals. Fire Fighting Media and Instructions Fire Hazards Explosion Hazards Oxidizing material. Use water but, do not use water jet or water spray. Use flooding quantities of water. Flood fire area from a distance. Avoid contact with organic, and combustible materials. Do not use dry chemicals or foams. Carbon Dioxide or Halon should not be used because they may only provide limited control. Contact with combustible or organic materials may cause fire. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of ammonia, chlorides, oxides of nitrogen, hydrochloric acid. Dried material may be explosive. Containers may explode when heated. Dried material is an explosion hazard when exposed to heat, mechanical shock or friction. Becomes impact sensitive when contaminated with powdered carbon, ferrocene, sulfur, organic matter, or powdered metals.

Oxidizing material. Stop leak if without risk. Avoid contact with a combustible material (wood, paper, oil, clothing...). Keep substance damp using water spray. Do not touch spilled material. Prevent entry into sewers, basements or confined areas; dike if needed. Eliminate all ignition sources. Call for assistance on disposal. Section 7. Handling and Storage Precautions Storage Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Keep away from combustible material. Ground all equipment containing material. Do not breathe dust. Wear suitable protective clothing. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. If you feel unwell, seek medical attention and show the label when possible. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep away from incompatibles such as combustible materials, organic materials. Keep container tightly closed. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Separate from acids, alkalies, reducing agents and combustibles. See NFPA 43A, Code for the Storage of Liquid and Solid Oxidizers. Section 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Engineering Controls Personal Protection Personal Protection in Case of a Large Spill Exposure Limits Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to keep airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If user operations generate dust, fume or mist, use ventilation to keep exposure to airborne contaminants below the exposure limit. Splash goggles. Lab coat. Dust respirator. Be sure to use an approved/certified respirator or equivalent. Gloves. Splash goggles. Full suit. Dust respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self contained breathing apparatus should be used to avoid inhalation of the product. Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist BEFORE handling this product.

Toxicological Information Routes of Entry Toxicity to Animals Chronic Effects on Humans Other Toxic Effects on Humans Toxicity to Animals Chronic Effects on Humans other Toxic Effects on Humans Skin contact. Eye contact. Inhalation. Ingestion. LD50: LC50: May cause damage to the following organs: kidneys, skin, eyes, thyroid. Hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant), of ingestion, of inhalation (lung irritant). Acute Potential Health Effects: Skin: Causes skin irritation and possible burns. Eyes: Causes eye irritation. May cause chemical conjunctivitis, corneal opacification. Inhalation: May cause respiratory tract (nose, throat) irritation causing coughing and wheezing. May cause pulmonary edema. Ingestion: Esophageal and gastrointestinal tract irritation are expected. Abdominal pain and nausea may occur. It may also affect kidneys (nephritis), liver (liver function tests impaired), behavior/central nervous system (ataxia, convulsions, coma), respiration (dyspnea). High levels may also interfere with the ability of the blood to carry oxygen because of the formation of methemoglobin. This condition is known as methemoglobinemia. Symptoms may include headache, fatigue,
