Section 3 - Composition/Information on Ingredients
Ingredients CAS No Conc,% TWA (mg/m3) STEL (mg/m3)
potassium oxalate 583-52-8 60-70 not set not set
Alumina 1344-28-1 20-30 10 not set
This is a commercial product whose exact ratio of components may vary slightly. Minor quantities of other non hazardous
ingredients are also possible.
The SWA TWA exposure value is the average airborne concentration of a particular substance when calculated over a normal 8 hour working day for a 5 day
working week. The STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit) is an exposure value that may be equalled (but should not be exceeded) for no longer than 15 minutes
and should not be repeated more than 4 times per day. There should be at least 60 minutes between successive exposures at the STEL. The term "peak "is
used when the TWA limit, because of the rapid action of the substance, should never be exceeded, even briefly.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
General Information:
You should call The Poisons Information Centre if you feel that you may have been poisoned, burned or irritated by this
product. The number is 13 1126 from anywhere in Australia (0800 764 766 in New Zealand) and is available at all times. Have
this MSDS with you when you call.
Inhalation: If irritation occurs, contact a Poisons Information Centre, or call a doctor. Remove source of contamination or
move victim to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, oxygen may be beneficial if administered by trained personnel, preferably on
a doctor's advice. In severe cases, symptoms of pulmonary oedema can be delayed up to 48 hours after exposure.
Skin Contact: Quickly and gently brush away excess particles. Wash gently and thoroughly with warm water (use non-
abrasive soap if necessary) for 10-20 minutes or until product is removed. Under running water, remove contaminated
clothing, shoes and leather goods (e.g. watchbands and belts) and completely decontaminate them before reuse or discard. If
irritation persists, repeat flushing and seek medical attention.
Eye Contact: Quickly and gently brush particles from eyes. Immediately flush the contaminated eye(s) with lukewarm,
gently flowing water for 20 minutes or until the product is removed, while holding the eyelid(s) open. Take care not to rinse
contaminated water into the unaffected eye or onto the face. Obtain medical attention immediately. Take special care if
exposed person is wearing contact lenses.
Ingestion: If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting; rinse mouth thoroughly with water and contact a Poisons Information
Centre, or call a doctor at once. Give activated charcoal if instructed.
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
Fire and Explosion Hazards: The major hazard in fires is usually inhalation of heated and toxic or oxygen deficient (or
both), fire gases. There is little risk of an explosion from this product if commercial quantities are involved in a fire.
Fire decomposition products from this product may be toxic if inhaled. Take appropriate protective measures.
Extinguishing Media : Suitable extinguishing media are carbon dioxide, dry chemical, foam, water fog. Water fog or fine
spray is the preferred medium for large fires. Try to contain spills, minimise spillage entering drains or water courses.
Fire Fighting: If a significant quantity of this product is involved in a fire, call the fire brigade. There is little danger of a
violent reaction or explosion if significant quantities of this product are involved in a fire. Recommended personal protective
equipment is liquid-tight chemical protective clothing and breathing apparatus.
Flash point : Does not burn.
Upper Flammability Limit: Does not burn.
