Composition / Information on Ingredients

Chemical components, concentration ranges, and hazardous substance identification

The chemicals above are impregnated into the tip of a wooden applicator.

Chemical Name CAS Number Concentration Hazardous
Silver Nitrate 7761-88-8 75% Yes
Potassium Nitrate 7757-79-1 25% No

A TWA Values given are 8 hour time-weighted averages, unless otherwise specified. C Not established Substance not assigned a specific PEL or TLV. Substance regulated by OSHA as particulates not otherwise regulated (PNOR, PELs 15 mg/m [3 ] total dust. 5 mg/m [3] respirable fraction) and by ACGIH as particulates not otherwise classified (PNOC, TLV 10 mg/m [3] total dust containing no asbestos and less than 1% crystalline silica) and is considered nuisance dust.

Notes

The weight percentages indicated above represent the relative proportions of the active ingredients and do not take into account the weight of the applicator.

First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Remove to fresh air and seek medical attention.

Skin contact

Immediately remove contaminated clothing and wash thoroughly with soap and water.

Eye contact

With eyes held wide open, wash thoroughly with water for 15 minutes. Do not wear contact lenses.

Ingestion

Drink copious amounts of water or milk. Avoid vomiting which may cause risk of perforation. Seek medical attention.

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Local and/or general ventilation, as needed, to reduce employee exposures to below applicable OSHA PELs and ACGIH TLVs (see SECTION 3.0 COMPOSITION INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS FOR PELs and TLVs), or other industry standards or guidelines on exposure. Due to final product form and use, it is not believed that PELs or TLVs will be exceeded.

Hands

Latex, vinyl or rubber examination gloves in order to prevent unnecessary or accidental skin contact.

Eyes

Safety glasses to prevent accidental contact.

Respiratory

If respiratory protection is required, all appropriate requirements as set forth in 29 CFR 1910.134 must be met. A competent health professional should be consulted for respirator selection.

Skin/Body

No special clothing necessary.
