Section 3 - Hazards Identification

Appearance: white crystalline powder.
Danger! Causes burns by all exposure routes. Harmful if swallowed. Hygroscopic (absorbs moisture from the air). May cause sensitization by skin contact.
Target Organs: Blood, kidneys, liver, respiratory system, gastrointestinal system, eyes, skin.


Potential Health Effects
Eye: Causes eye burns.
Skin: Causes skin burns. May be harmful if absorbed through the skin. May cause sensitization by skin contact.
Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. Causes gastrointestinal tract burns. Inorganic tin salts may cause systemic toxic effects on the central nervous system, heart, and
Inhalation: Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract. May be harmful if inhaled.
Chronic: Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. May cause liver and kidney damage. Adverse reproductive effects have been reported in animals. Chronic exposure may cause blood effects. Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Animal studies have reported the development of tumors.

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 imme diately.
Skin: Get medical aid immediately. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Get medical aid immediately. Call a poison control center.
Inhalation: Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Do not use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; induce artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device.
