Section 3 - Hazards Identification, Including Emergency Overview
BLEACHING POWDER

Health Hazards Acute & Chronic: EYE, SKIN & RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION.

Signs & Symptoms of Overexposure:
CAN CAUSE BURNS TO EYES AND SKIN. INHALATION OF VAPORS, FUMES AND DUST CAN CAUSE IRRITATION TO MUCOUS MEMBRANES.

Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure:
OVEREXPOSURE MAY AGGRAVATE EXISTING CHRONIC RESPIRATORY CONDITIONS SUCH AS ASTHMA, BRONCHITIS AND INFLAMMATORY OR FIBROTIC RESPIRATORY DISEASE.

LD50 LC50 Mixture: ORAL LD50 (RAT) IS 900 MG/KG (HCL)
Route of Entry Indicators:
Inhalation: YES
Skin: YES
Ingestion: YES
Carcenogenicity Indicators
NTP: NO
IARC: NO
OSHA: NO
Carcinogenicity Explanation: NONE OF THE COMPOUNDS IN THIS PRODUCT IS LISTED BY IARC, NTP, OR OSHA AS A CARCINOGEN.

Section 4 - First Aid Measures
BLEACHING POWDER

First Aid:
INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF NOT BREATHING, GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. EYES: IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR 15 MINUTES. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN: FLUSH W ITH WATER. REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING. INGESTION: POISON! IF CONSCIOUS, GIVE MILK, EGG WHITE, STARCH PASTE OR MILK OF MAGNESIA BY MOUTH. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.

Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
BLEACHING POWDER

Fire Fighting Procedures:
WEAR A NIOSH APPROVED SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS AND FULL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT WHEN FIGHTING FIRES.
Unusual Fire or Explosion Hazard:
POWERFUL OXIDIZING MATERIAL. NOT COMBUSTIBLE BUT EVOLVES OXYGEN AT HIGHER TEMPERATURES. READILY IGNITES COMBUSTIBLE OR ORGANIC MATERIALS WHEN IN CONTACT.
Extinguishing Media:
USE WATER, PREFERABLY IN FORM OF SPRAY.

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
BLEACHING POWDER

Spill Release Procedures:
ELIMINATE SOURCES OF IGNITION. WEAR NIOSH APPROVED RESPIRATOR OR SCBA, GOGGLES, GLOVES & BOOTS. KEEP AWAY FROM ORGANIC MATERIAL. MIX WITH DRY EARTH OR SAND AND PLACE IN DISPOSAL DRUM. FLUSH RESIDUE WI TH LARGE QUANTITIES WATER.

Section 7 - Handling and Storage
BLEACHING POWDER

Handling and Storage Precautions:

Other Precautions:


Section 8 - Exposure Controls & Personal Protection
BLEACHING POWDER

Repiratory Protection:
SELECT A NIOSH APPROVED RESPIRATOR BASED ON CONTAMINATION LEVELS FOUND IN THE WORK PLACE. FOR HIGH LEVELS, A SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS WITH FULL FACEPIECE OPERATED IN PRESSURE DEMAND OR POSIT IVE PRESSURE IS RECOMMENDED.
Ventilation:
LOCAL EXHAUST WHERE DUST MIGHT OCCUR.
Protective Gloves:
RUBBER, NEOPRENE OR PVC
Eye Protection: FACE SHIELD/SAFETY GOGGLE
Other Protective Equipment: EYE WASH STATION AND SAFETY SHOWER. INDUSTRIAL-TYPE WORK CLOTHING AND APRON AS REQUIRED. SHOULD WEAR SAFETY BOOTS.
Work Hygenic Practices: WASH THOROUGHLY AFTER HANDLING AND BEFORE EATING, DRINKING OR SMOKING. LAUNDER CONTAMINATED CLOTHING BEFORE REUSE.
Supplemental Health & Safety Information: SUPERTROPICAL BLEACH IS A MIXTURE OF CHLORINATED LIME AND CALCIUM OXIDE IN A WHITE POWDER FORM. WHEN MANUFACTURED IT CONTAINS 30 PERCENT AVAILABLE CHLORINE. STB DECOMPOSES SLOWLY IN STORAGE EASILY REC OGNIZED BY THE CHLORINE LIKE ODOR. IT IS CORROSIVE TO MOST METALS AND INJURIOUS TO MOST FABRICS.
