Composition Notes
Note B: Some substances (acids, bases, etc.) are placed on the market in aqueous solutions at various concentrations and, therefore, these solutions require different classification and labelling since the hazards vary at different concentrations. In Part 3 entries with Note B have a general designation of the following type: nitric acid %. In this case the supplier must state the percentage concentration of the solution on the label. Unless otherwise stated, it is assumed that the percentage concentration is calculated on a weight/weight basis.
Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
🫁 Inhalation Exposure
Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. In case of breathing difficulties administer oxygen. If experiencing respiratory symptoms: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
Symptoms:
Irritating to the respiratory system, may cause throat pain and cough.
🖐️ Skin Contact
Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. In case of doubt or persistent symptoms, consult always a physician.
👁️ Eye Contact
Rinse immediately and plentifully with water, also under the eyelids, for at least 20 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Consult an ophtalmologist if irritation persists.
🍽️ Ingestion/Swallowing
Unlikely route of exposure. If accidentally swallowed rinse the mouth with plenty of water (only if the person is conscious) and obtain immediate medical attention. Drink plenty of water.
🚨 Immediate Medical Attention Required
If experiencing respiratory symptoms, call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. In case of doubt or persistent skin symptoms, consult a physician. Consult an ophtalmologist if eye irritation persists. Obtain immediate medical attention if accidentally swallowed.
