Risk Phrases: 23/25 33 50/53 Section 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Toxic by inhalation and if swallowed. Danger of cumulative effects. Very toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment.Hygroscopic (absorbs moisture from the air). Potential Health Effects Eye: May cause severe eye irritation. May result in corneal injury. Skin: May cause severe skin irritation. May be absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts. Prolonged and/or repeated contact may cause irritation and/or dermatitis. Ingestion: May be fatal if swallowed. May cause liver and kidney damage. May cause burns to the digestive tract. Inhalation: May be fatal if inhaled. May cause severe irritation of the respiratory tract with sore throat, coughing, shortness of breath and delayed lung edema. Chronic: Symptoms demonstrated by humans suffering from chronic selenium intoxication, selenosis, include depression, languor, nervousness, dermatitis, gastrointestinal disturbances, giddiness, garlic odor of the breath and sweat, moderate emotional instability, excess dental caries, and in extreme cases, loss of fingernails and partial alopecia (hair loss). Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES Eyes: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical aid immediately. Skin: In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid immediately. Wash clothing before reuse. Ingestion: POISON material. If swallowed, get medical aid immediately. Only induce vomiting if directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Inhalation: POISON material. If inhaled, get medical aid immediately. Remove victim to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Notes to Physician: Section 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES General Information: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. Extinguishing Media: Use extinguishing media most appropriate for the surrounding fire. Section 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8. Spills/Leaks: Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal container. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide ventilation. Section 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Do not breathe dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not ingest or inhale. Use only with adequate ventilation or respiratory protection. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Store in a tightly closed container. Poison room locked. Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION Engineering Controls: Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below the permissible exposure limits. Use process enclosure, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels. Exposure Limits CAS# 7783-00-8: United Kingdom, WEL - TWA: (listed as selenium compounds): 0.1 mg TWA (except hydrogen selenide, as Se) United Kingdom, WEL - STEL: (listed as selenium compounds): 0.3 m STEL (except hydrogen selenide, as Se) United States OSHA: 0.2 mg/m3 TWA (as Se) (listed under Selenium compounds).

Skin: Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin exposure. Clothing: Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin exposure. Respirators: Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29 CFR 1910.134 or European Standard EN 149. Use a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149 approved respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation or other symptoms are experienced.
