2.Composition/ Ingredients

3.Hazards Description
Harmful to the environment.Very toxic to aquatic organisms, may have chronic adverse effects to the aquatic environment.

Potential Health Effects
May cause eye irritation.
May cause skin irritation.
Harmful if swallowed.Ingestion:May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause liver damage.
Inhalation:May cause respiratory tract irritation.
Chronic:Chronic exposure may cause liver damage. Individuals with Wilson's disease are unable to metabolize copper. Thus, copper accumulates in various tissues and may result in liver, kidney, and brain damage.

4.First-Aid Measures
Eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.

Skin:Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if irritation develops or persists. Wash clothing before reuse.

Ingestion:Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.

Inhalation:Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid if cough or other symptoms appear.

Notes to Physician:
Antidote: The use of d-Penicillamine as a chelating agent should be determined by qualified medical personnel.

5.Fire-Fighting Measures

-Proper Fire-Extinguishing Agents: Dry powder, carbon dioxide, foam and water (only effective for extensive fire).
-Hazardous Combustion Products:Irritating and toxic gas can be released from thermal decomposition or combustion.
-Protection for Fire-Fighting: Wear protective clothing and use self-contained breathing apparatus.

6.Accidental Release Measures
