Section 3 - Hazards Identification



EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: white crystals. May cause severe eye irritation and possible injury. Causes severe respiratory tract irritation. May cause digestive tract irritation with nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. May cause liver damage. May cause adverse reproductive effects. Warning! Harmful if swallowed. Hygroscopic (absorbs moisture from the air). Causes skin irritation.
Target Organs: Blood, liver, lungs, respiratory system, eyes, skin.


Potential Health Effects
Eye: May cause severe eye irritation.
Skin: Causes skin irritation. Causes redness and pain.
Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause headache, nausea, fatigue, and dizziness. Inorganic tin salts may cause systemic toxic effects on the central ne rvous system, heart, and liver.
Inhalation: Irritation may lead to chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema. May cause severe irritation of the upper respiratory tract with pain, burns, and inflammation. May cause effects similar to those described for ingestion.
Chronic: Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause adverse reproductive effects.

Section 4 - First Aid Measures


Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin: Get medical aid. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion: If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid.
Inhalation: Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively. Persons with asthma, chronic respiratory disease, skin disorders, eye problems or allergies may be at increased risk from exposure to this substance.

Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures


General Information: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion.
Extinguishing Media: Use extinguishing media most appropriate for the surrounding fire. Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam.
Flash Point: Not applicable.
Autoignition Temperature: Not applicable.
Explosion Limits, Lower:Not available.
Upper: Not available.
NFPA Rating: (estimated) Health: 2; Flammability: 0; Instability: 0

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures


General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks: Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Sweep up, then place into a suitable container for disposal. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide ventilation.

Section 7 - Handling and Storage


Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Use only in a well-ventilated area. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid breathing dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation.
Storage: Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Store protected from moisture.

Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection


Engineering Controls: Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use process enclosure, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels.

Section 12 - Ecological Information


Ecotoxicity: Water flea Daphnia: EC50 = 19.5; 48 Hr; Unspecified Terrestrial fate: At a low pH, increased uptake of tin occurs as a result of increase solubility. The translocation of tin by plants is reduced by low solubility in soil. The insolubility of tin at a neutral to alkaline pH range prevents plant uptake and subsequent food chain contamination.
Environmental: No information reported.
Physical: No information available.
Other: No information available.

Section 13 - Disposal Considerations

Chemical waste generators must determine whether a discarded chemical is classified as a hazardous waste. US EPA guidelines for the classification determination are listed in 40 CFR Parts 261.3.
