5 Sulfur trioxide : Oral LD50 (rat) = 2140 mg/kg Inhalation LD50 (rat) = 510 mg/m 3 Inhalation LD50 (mouse) = 320 mg/m 3 Draize test - Eye (rabbit) = 250 µg - Severe; Sulfur trioxide reacts violently with water forming sulfuric acid. Causes eye and skin burns. Causes digestive and respiratory tract burns. May be fatal if inhaled. Workers chronically exposed to sulfuric acid mists may show various lesions of the skin, tracheobronchitis, stomatitis, conjunctivitis, or gastritis. Occupational exposure to strong inorganic acid mists containing sulfuric acid is carcinogenic to humans. Iron oxide (FeO): May be harmful if swallowed, inhaled or absorbed through skin. May cause skin and eye irritation. Overdose of iron compounds may have a corrosive effect on the gastrointestinal tract. Symptoms include diarrhoea, vomiting, nausea and abdominal pain. Further complications may develop leading to acute liver necrosis. Sodium oxide (Na 2 O): Causes severe burns. Reacts violently with water. Acute Health Effects Routes of Exposure Inhalation: Ingestion: Eye: Skin: May cause respiratory tract, nose, throat, and lung irritation and inflammation. May be caustic to mucous membranes. May severely irritate eyes. May develop inflammation of the cornea. May irritate skin causing drying, redness, rash, and blistering. When mixed with water, a high alkali material is produced which can cause severe skin burns. Individuals may develop allergic dermatitis.
