[Fire Potential]

Combustible material: may burn but does not ignite readily.
[Ingestion]

Get medical aid. Wash mouth out with water.
[Ingestion]

Seek medical assistance.
[Inhalation]

Move victim to fresh air. Apply artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; induce artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult.
[Inhalation]

Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid.
[Inhalation]

Causes respiratory tract irritation. May be harmful if inhaled.
[Skin]

Causes skin irritation. May be harmful if absorbed through the skin.
[Skin]

Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
[Skin]

Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. Immediately flush with running water for at least 20 minutes. For minor skin contact, avoid spreading material on unaffected skin.
[Eyes]

Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
[Eyes]

Immediately flush with running water for at least 20 minutes.
[Eyes]

Causes eye irritation.
[Storage]

Keep in a cool, dry, dark location in a tightly sealed container or cylinder. Keep away from incompatible materials, ignition sources and untrained individuals. Secure and label area. Protect containers/cylinders from physical damage.
[Storage]

Store in a cool, dry place. Store in a tightly closed container.
[Handling]

All chemicals should be considered hazardous. Avoid direct physical contact. Use appropriate, approved safety equipment. Untrained individuals should not handle this chemical or its container. Handling should occur in a chemical fume hood.
[Handling]

Avoid breathing dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
[Ingestion]

May cause irritation of the digestive tract. May be harmful if swallowed. Ingestion of large amounts may cause nausea and vomiting, rigidity or convulsions. Continued exposure can produce coma, dehydration, and internal organ
[Ingestion]

See Inhalation.
[Inhalation]

TOXIC; inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact with material may cause severe injury or death. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed.
[Skin]

Contact with molten substance may cause severe burns to skin and eyes. See Inhalation.
[Eyes]

See Inhalation.
[Hazards]

When heated, vapors may form explosive mixtures with air: indoors, outdoors, and sewers explosion hazards.
