Safety Data SheetAvesta Neutraliser 502This Safety Data Sheet contains information to help users understand the potentialhazards relating to this product and provides advice for risk management.This information must be shown to or made available to those who may come intocontact with the material or are responsible for the material. This Safety Data Sheet isprepared in accordance with GHS, as adopted by the UN Economic and Social Council(ECOSOC) in July 2003 and being implemented into the US under OSHA HazardCommunication Standard 29CFR1910.1200 and being implemented into Canada to meetthe legal obligations under WHMIS (Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System.Reference is also made to the current OSHA requirements, with classification to NFPAstandards and also to the Canadian WHMIS Classification as part of transitionalarrangements.1.

Hazards IdentificationThe product is considered dangerous if in contact with skin, eyes or if ingested.NFPA RATING:HMIS RATING:Classification WHMISClassification GHSHealth 3 Flammability 0 Reactivity 0Health 3 Flammability 0 Reactivity 0Class E, CorrosiveSkin Corrosion, Category 1BDANGER : Hazard Class Corrosive,Page 1/6

Causes severe skin burns and eye damageClassification EUC Corrosive, R35Contact with skin and eyes may cause severe damage without rapid first aid. Inhalationof spray may cause irritation to the respiratory tract.Ingestion will cause damage to the GI tract.There are no known long-term health effects resulting from exposure.The product is not considered as Dangerous to the Environment, although due to thealkaline nature of the product, care should be taken to avoid direct loss to theenvironment.3. CompositionCAS1310-73-2NameContent Class (GHS)Sodium hydroxide 20-30% Category 1B CorrosiveWHMISClass E, CorrosiveConcentrated aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide4. First Aid MeasuresInhalationIf exposed to spray or vapour, move to area of fresh air. If any signs of adverse effect, obtainmedical advice. Treatment should be consistent with effects from exposure to strong alkalines.Skin contactWash skin immediately with water and keep affected areas under flowing water.Obtain medical advice if continued signs of irritation or discomfort are noted. Treatment shouldbe consistent with effects from exposure to strong alkaline.Wash clothing before re-use.Eye contactFlush eyes immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.Seek immediate medical advice. Treatment should be consistent with effects from exposure tostrong alkaline.IngestionIf swallowed, rinse mouth thoroughly and drink small quantity of water (500 ml).Obtain medical advice.Note to medical staff: Treat as for strong alkaline.5. Fire fighting MeasuresI10098-1, 2010-07-01Not flammableExtinguishing mediaIf in the vicinity of a fire, there are no known adverse reactions to any normal extinguishingmedia. . The material is not known to be reactive with any extinguishing media.Special exposure hazards (from the material or its combustion products)Normal combustion products are not considered to be specifically hazardous.Special precautions for fire fightersPage 2/6

None6. Accidental release measuresPersonal precautionsIn case of large spill ( 5 litres) remove unnecessary personnel away from area of spill orcontamination. During cleaning, protective clothing should be worn to avoid contact with skinand eyes.Environmental precautionsPrevent spilled material or washings entering water courses or storm-water drainage systems.Diluted product and washings may be discharged into foul-water systems leading to wastewater treatment plants.Methods for cleaning upSpills of up to 5 litres can be rinsed away to waste water drains with large quantities of water.Spills of over 5 litres should be contained and absorbed onto sand, sawdust or other suitablematerial. Residues should be collected and disposed of as hazardous chemical waste in suitablylabelled containers. Careful neutralisation with weak acids may be attempted under expertsupervision.The area contaminated by the spill should be washed with water.7. Handling and storageHandlingEye protection, alkaline resistant gloves and coveralls recommended when handing the product.See section 8 for more details.StorageStore in original containers between 0 – 30 C. No special precautions.8.

Suitable chemical resistant gloves recommended for use with strong alkaline. Changegloves in accordance with manufacturer recommendations. If gloves are damagedduring use, remove immediately and wash hands before replacing with new gloves.Eye protectionGoggles must be worn when handling this product.Skin protectionCoveralls recommended. These should be changed after use or if contaminated. Washbefore re-use.Environmental exposure controlsWhen handling small quantities (less than 5 litres), no special precautions required. Ifhandling bulk material, precautions should be taken to avoid accidental release to watercourses.9.

Stability and ReactivityConditions to avoidThe material is considered to be stable under normal conditions. Store away from directsunlight and avoid elevated temperaturesMaterials to avoidAvoid contact with strong acids.Hazardous decomposition productsNone11. Toxicological InformationThe preparation has not been tested but the effects can be estimated using the criteriacovered by GHS and through estimation from the EU Preparations Directive 2001/59/EC.Corrosive effects are predicted through consideration of the pH.I10098-1, 2010-07-01Acute oral toxic classEyesSkinSensitiserInhalationLong-term toxicityNo acute oral toxicity studies have been carried out tointernational guidelines, due to the corrosive nature of thesubstance. An older study in rabbits suggests an LD50 of 327mg/kg.Will cause severe eye damageConsidered corrosive to skin, GHS Category 1BNot considered to be a sensitiserInhalation of spray or aerosol may cause severeirritation to respiratory tractSodium hydroxide is not expected to cause long term healtheffects. None of the components are listed as CMR*Page 4/6

(*Carcinogenic, mutagenic or reproductive toxin)12. Ecological InformationThe preparation has not been tested but there are no components present atconcentrations that will cause the preparation to be classified as Dangerous to theEnvironment.LC50s for sodium hydroxide have been reported for fish in the range 35-189 mg/l andfor crustaceans in the range 33-450 mg/l. These effects are attributed to the change inpH, and the actual effects of release to the environment will depend upon a variety offactors such as the buffering capacity of the receiving water, and species sensitivity.There are no components considered to be persistent or bioaccumulative.13.Disposal ConsiderationsIt is recommended to dispose of small quantities of this material ( 5 litres) by flushingwith an excess of water to foul drainage. A dilution factor of 100 is recommended.Larger quantities of waste should be treated as chemical waste in a manner thatcomplies with local regulations. Advice should be sought from local agencies. Carefulneutralisation with weak acids may be attempted under expert supervision.The containers should be rinsed thoroughly with water and can be disposed of as nonhazardous waste.Follow supplier recommendations.14.
