The material is not volatile and has no known ill effects on skin, eyes, or on ingestion. Therefore, no
special precautions are required when using the standards. General precautions should be adopted as
required with all materials to minimize unnecessary contact. Note, however, that the chemical,
physical, and toxicological properties have not been thoroughly investigated.
FIRST AID:
SKIN CONTACT - Remove contaminated clothing. Wash affected area with soap or mild detergent
and water.
EYE CONTACT - Wash eyes immediately with large amounts of water (approx. 15-20 minutes),
occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. If irritation occurs, seek medical attention immediately.
