3. Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview
--------------------------
DANGER! CORROSIVE. CAUSES BURNS TO ANY AREA OF CONTACT.
HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED OR INHALED. AFFECTS THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM.
Potential Health Effects
----------------------------------
Inhalation: Zinc Chloride is extremely
destructive to tissues of the mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract.
Symptoms may include burning sensation, coughing, wheezing, laryngitis,
shortness of breath, headache, nausea and vomiting.
Ingestion:
Zinc Chloride is toxic. May cause irritation or
corrosion to the gastrointestinal tract with abdominal pain, nausea, and
vomiting. Zinc chloride may cause delayed death occurring from strictures of
the esophagus and pylorus.
Skin Contact: Zinc
Chloride may cause severe irritation, skin burns and ulcerations.
Zinc Chloride solutions are corrosive. Symptoms include redness and pain.
Eye Contact: Zinc chloride may cause
redness, pain, and blurred vision. Splashes from solutions may cause eye
damage.
Chronic Exposure: Repeated skin contact of
Zinc chloride can cause varying degrees of problems ranging from
dermatitis to ulcerations. Repeated Inhalation can cause occupational
asthma.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:
Dermatitis, cardiac and respiratory disorders.
4. First Aid Measures
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing
is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention immediately.
Ingestion:
If swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Give large quantities of water. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately.
Skin Contact:
Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while
removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention immediately.
Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse.
Eye Contact:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting
lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Fire:
Zinc chloride is not considered to be a fire hazard.
Explosion:
Zinc Chloride is not considered to be an explosion hazard.
Fire Extinguishing Media: Use any means suitable for extinguishing surrounding fire.
Special Information:
Use protective clothing and breathing equipment appropriate for the surrounding
fire over.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Ventilate area of leak or spill of Zinc chloride. Keep unnecessary and unprotected people away from area of spill. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Spills: Pick up and place in a suitable container for reclamation or disposal, using a method that does not generate dust. Avoid release to the environment. US Regulations (CERCLA) require reporting spills and releases to soil, water and air in excess of reportable quantities. The toll free number for the US Coast Guard National Response Center is (800) 424-8802.
7. Handling and Storage
Keep in a well closed container stored under cold to warm conditions, 2 to 40 C, (36 to 104F). Protect it against physical damage. Containers may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Airborne
Exposure Limits:
OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL):
1 mg/m3 (TWA) 8H, as fume.
ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV):
1 mg/m3 (TWA); 2 mg/m3 (STEL) for fume
Ventilation System:
A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee
exposures below the Airborne Exposure Limits. Local exhaust ventilation is
generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at
its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Please refer
to the ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended
Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):
If the exposure limit is exceeded, a full face piece respirator with dust/mist
filter may be worn up to 50 times the exposure limit or the maximum use
concentration specified by the appropriate regulatory agency or respirator
supplier, whichever is lowest. For emergencies or instances where the exposure
levels are not known, use a full-face piece positive-pressure, air-supplied
respirator. WARNING: Air purifying respirators do not protect workers in
oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Skin Protection:
Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or
coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where dusting or splashing
of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities
in work area.
