HMIS

            Health: 1           Flammability:  1             Reactivity: 0      Personal Protection:  E

Eye Contact:

In the case pigment comes into contact with eyes, it may cause irritation.  In this flush eyes thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes.  If irritations persist, consult your physician.

Skin Contact:

In the case pigment comes into contact with skin, it may cause irritation.  In this case wash skin with soap and water.  Remove severely contaminated clothing and clean before reuse.  Seek medical attention if irritation persist. 

Inhalation:

In the case pigment is inhaled, it may cause respiratory irritation.  In this case remove to fresh air.

Get medical attention if necessary.

Ingestion: 

In the case pigment is ingested it is not considered to be toxic.  If swallowed, dilute with water and

 induce vomiting.  Never give fluids or induce vomiting to an unconscious or person having convulsions. Contact medical help immediately in this case.

Flammability Classification:                 Not Hazardous

Flash Point:                                         Not Applicable

Flammable Limit in Air:                       Not Established

Auto ignition Temperature:                  Not Established

Extinguishing Media:                           Water, Foam, CO₂, Dry Chemical

Special Fire Fighting Procedures:        Exercise caution when fighting any chemical fire. Use NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.

Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards:      May form explosive dust-air mixtures in the finely divided state.

Step to be taken in case of spill:

   Small spills may be flushed to the sewer. Large spills should be collected by shoveling into      appropriate waste collection containers. Clean-up by flushing with water if desired.

   Utilized recommended clothing and equipment.                   

Handling:                                                                                                                                                         Avoid dust formation. Keep away from ignition sources. Avoid breathing dust and contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Wash with water thoroughly after handling.

Storage:          

      Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Keep container sealed when not in use.       

Respiration Protection:            A NIOSH approved respirator as necessary.

Protective Equipment:              Safety glasses (with side shields), Synthetic gloves.

Ventilation:                              Local exhaust ventilation recommended.

Exposure Guidelines:               OSHA PEL/TWA:  Not established; treat as nuisance dust:

                                                15 mg/m³ (total dust); 5mg/m³ (respirable fraction)

Incompatibility:                        Avoid strong oxidizing agents such as peroxides, chlorates, perchlorates, nitrates, and permanganates.  Oxidizing materials may vigorously evolve oxygen, in large amounts. This product is a stable compound and hazardous polymerization will not occur.

Hazardous Decomposition

Products:                                 In case of fire pigments may evolve carbon monoxide

                                                and other toxic compounds.

Acute oral toxicity:                    LD 50 (rat):        >5000 mg/kg

Acute inhalation toxicity:                        Not Available

Acute dermal toxicity:                Not Available

Skin irritation:                            Not Available

Eye Irritation:                             Not Available

Organic pigments, in general, are not expected to be toxic to fish because of their negligible water solubility thus they are not readily biodegradable.
