Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES  Skin:NO  Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO    IARC:NO	OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: CORROSIVE TO EYES & GI TRACT.
    MAY CAUSE IRREVERSIBLE TISS DMG TO EYES, INCLG BLINDNESS. SEVERELY
    IRRIT TO NOSE, THROAT & LUNGS. CHRONIC: THERE ARE REPORTS OF
    LIMITED EVID OF CARCIN OF HYDROGEN	PEROXIDE TO MICE ADMIN HIGH
    CONCS IN THEIR DRINKING WATER(IARC MONO 36, 1985).
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NOT RELEVANT.
Effects of Overexposure:SEE HEALTH HAZARDS.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

First Aid:EYES: IMMED FLUSH W/LGE AMOUNTS OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15
    MINUTES, LIFTING UPPER & LOWER LIDS INTERMITTENTLY. SEE
    MD/OPTHALMOLOGIST. SKIN: WASH W/LGE AMOUNTS OF WATER. IF IRRIT
    PERSISTS, OBTAIN MED ATT N. INHAL: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. CALL
    MD.INGEST: DRINK PLENTY OF WATER IMMEDIATELY TO DILUTE. DO NOT
    INDUCE VOMITING. SEE MD. DECONTAMINATION PROCS: WASH AREA WITH
    LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER. NOTE (SUPDAT)

=====================  Fire Fighting Measures  =====================

Flash Point:NONCOMBUSTIBLE
Extinguishing Media:WATER, WATER FOG, CO*2, DRY CHEMICAL.
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR NIOSH/MSHA APPRVD SCBA & FULL PROT EQUIP.
    ANY TANK/CNTNR SURROUNDED BY FIRE SHOULD BE FLOODED W/WATER FOR
    COOLING.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:HYDROGEN PEROXIDE ITSELF IS
    NONCOMBUSTIBLE. ON DECOMPOSITION, RELEASES OXYGEN WHICH MAY
    INTENSIFY FIRE.

==================  Accidental Release Measures  ==================

Spill Release Procedures:DILUTE W/LGE VOL OF WATER & HOLD IN POND/DIKED
    AREA UNTIL H*2O*2 DECOMPOSES. DISPOSE OF ACCORDING TO METHODS
    OUTLINED FOR DISPOSAL.
Neutralizing Agent:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.

======================	Handling and Storage  ======================

Handling and Storage Precautions:WEAR CUP TYPE CHEM SAFETY GOGGS,
    POLYESTER/ACRYLIC FULL COVER CLTHG & RUBBER/NEOPRENE GLOVES &
    SHOES. AVOID EXCESS HEAT. AVOID CONTAMD OF ANY KIND.
Other Precautions:CONTAM MAY CAUSE DECOMP & GENERATION OF O*2 GAS WHICH
    COULD RSLT IN HIGH PRESS & POSS CNTNR RUPTURE. HYDROGEN PEROXIDE
    SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN UNVENTED CNTNR & SHOULD BE TRANS ONLY IN
    PRESCRIBED MANNE R. NEVER RETURN UNUSED HYDROGEN(ING 7)

=============  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  =============

Respiratory Protection:FOR SEVERE VAPOR OR MIST (CONCENTRATION IN
    EXCESS OF 10 PPM) USE NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED SCBA. DO NOT USE
    OXIDIZABLE SORBANTS.
Ventilation:PROVIDE GENL & LOC EXHST VENT AS NEC. CONTROL MISTS IN WORK
    AREA AT OR BELOW EXPOSURE GUIDELINES(TLV 1 PPM FOR 8 HRS).
Protective Gloves:LIQUID PROOF RUBBER/NEOPRENE GLOVES.
Eye Protection:ANSI APPRVD CHEM WORKERS GOGGS.
Other Protective Equipment:EMERG EYEWASH & DELUGE SHOWER WHICH MEET
    ANSI DESIGN CRITERIA . RUB/NEOPRENE FOOTWEAR. POLYESTER/ACRYLIC
    (ING 11)
Work Hygienic Practices:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
Supplemental Safety and Health
PH: 2.5-3.5. FIRST AID PROC: TO MD: HYDROGEN PEROXIDE AT THESE CONCS IS
    A STRONG OXIDANT. DIRECT CONTACT W/EYE IS SUFFICIENTLY LIKELY TO
    CAUSE CORNEAL DMG, ESPECIALLY IF NOT WASHED AWAY IMMED SO THAT 
    CAREFUL OPHTHALMOLOGIC EVAL IS RECOMM &POSS OF LOC CORTICOSTEROID
    THERAPY SHOULD BE CONSIDERED. BECAUSE OF (ING 2)
