SECTION 6 - SPILL, LEAK AND DISPOSAL
In case of spill, dike up material with an oil absorbent barrier material.
Spilled material can be cleaned up by scraping with a shovel, spatula or
bladed instrument. Residual material left after scraping can be cleaned up
with mineral spirits, solvents and some soap. Material should be placed in
a marked, sealed container for disposal. Disposal of waste product is subject
to federal, local and state regulations. Users should review their requirements
in terms of applicable federal, state and local regulations and dispose of
material accordingly.
SECTION 7 - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Primary Route of Entry: Skin: Yes Inhalation: Yes Ingestion: Yes
Carcinogenicity: Not considered a carcinogen by NTP, IARC or OSHA
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure:
ZINC CHLORIDE: Causes burns. Fumes, dust or mist may cause injury to the
respiratory tract. Severe exposure may cause lung damage. Corrosive to the
eyes and skin. Toxic effects include corrosion of mucosal surfaces, liver
effects, and kidney effects, lower respiratory irritation with pulmonary
edema. Effects of overexposure may include: eye irritation with discomfort,
tearing, or blurring of vision; skin irritation with discomfort or rash,
or irritation with discomfort of the upper respiratory passages. Higher exposure
may lead to skin burns or ulceration; eye irritation with discomfort, tearing
or blurring of vision; temporary lung irritation with cough, discomfort,
difficulty breathing, or shortness of breath; possibly modest initial symptoms,
followed in hours be severe shortness of breath requiring medical attention;
or fatality from gross overexposure by fume inhalation or significant ingestion.
LITHIUM FLUORIDE: May be toxic if ingested. Exposure to inorganic fluoride
may cause kidney injury, stomach bleeding, abdominal pain, diarrhea, shortness
of breath, difficulty in speaking, thirst, weakness of pulse, disturbed color
vision, muscular weakness, convulsions, loss of consciousness and coma. Fluoride
dust may cause irritation to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Chronic
overexposure to fluoride may result in digestive disturbances, damage to
the teeth and abnormal hardening of the bones and other bone changes. High
doses of fluoride have been reported to cause birth defects and embryo death
in animals. The lithium ion can cause kidney damage, gastrointestinal
disturbances, fatigue, dehydration, weight loss, dermatological effects and
thyroid disturbances.
POTASSIUM CHLORIDE: Inhalation of high concentration of dust may cause nasal
or lung irritation. Ingestion of large quantities can produce gastrointestinal
irritation and vomiting. may produce weakness and circulatory problems. Contact
with skin may cause irritation or rash, particularly if skin is moist. Potassium
chloride is an eye irritant. Redness, tearing, possible abrasion can occur.
Persons with impaired kidney function may be more susceptible to the effects
of the substance.
LITHIUM CHLORIDE: Vomiting, diarrhea and ataxia may occur with acute exposure.
Central nervous system effects include slurred speech, blurred vision, dizziness,
sensory loss, convulsions and stupor. Chronic exposure may lead to neuromuscular
effects such as tremor, ataxia, weakness, clonus and hyperactive reflexes.
The lithium ion can cause kidney damage, gastrointestinal disturbances, fatigue,
dehydration, weight loss, dermatological effects and thyroid disturbances.
Emergency and First Aid Procedures:
EYES: For dust or solution in eyes, flush immediately for 15 to 20 minutes
with large amounts of water. Seek medical evaluation. SKIN: Promptly wash
with soap and water, then flush with water until material is removed. Remove
contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. If symptoms persist, get medical
attention. INHALATION: Immediately remove to fresh air. If breathing is
difficult, give oxygen. Get medical evaluation. If not breathing give artificial
respiration. Call a physician. INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting. If conscious,
give soluble calcium or magnesium in any form or large quantities of water.
Call a physician.
SECTION 8 - CONTROL MEASURES
Ventilation: Mechanical local exhaust sufficient to maintain airborne
concentrations of all constituents and decomposition by products below their
OSHA PEL's.
Respiratory Protection: When airborne concentrations can not be kept below
permissible levels use a NOISH/MSHA approved respirator. The respirator filter
elements should be chosen based upon the contaminants encountered.
Eye Protection: Safety goggles or glasses with a #3 or #4 welding filter
lens to reduce the risk of corneal damage.
Skin Protection: Wear protective gloves to prevent prolonged contact with
material. For brazing or soldering use heat resistant gloves and avoid flammable
fabrics.
Other: Always keep food, drink and tobacco out of the work area. Wash hands
thoroughly before eating, drinking or smoking. For more information, please
refer to ANSI Z49.1, "Safety in Welding & Cutting".
