Section 3 - Hazards Identification
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Caution!
Citric acid causes
respiratory tract irritation. May cause digestive tract irritation. Moisture
sensitive. Causes severe eye irritation. May cause skin sensitization by
skin contact. Causes skin irritation.
Target Organs: None.
Potential Health
Effects
Eye:
Citric acid causes severe
eye irritation and possible injury.
Skin: Citric acid causes skin
irritation. May cause skin sensitization, an allergic reaction, which
becomes evident upon re-exposure to this material.
Ingestion: Citric acid may
cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Excessive intake of citric acid may cause erosion of the teeth.
Inhalation: Citric acid causes
respiratory tract irritation.
Chronic: Repeated
exposure may cause sensitization dermatitis.
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. Do NOT allow victim to
rub or keep eyes closed.
Skin: Flush skin
with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing
contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if irritation develops or
persists. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion: Do NOT
induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk
or water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical
aid.
Inhalation: Remove
from exposure to fresh air immediately. If breathing is difficult, give
oxygen. Get medical aid. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If
breathing has ceased apply artificial respiration using oxygen and a
suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a mask.
Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively.
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. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by
thermal decomposition or combustion.
Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or chemical foam. Use
agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Do NOT get water inside
containers.
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment.
Spills/Leaks: Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal container.
Very fine particles of Citric acid can cause a fire or explosion. Eliminate all ignition
sources. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the
Protective Equipment section. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Remove all
sources of ignition. Provide ventilation. Spill of Citric acid may be neutralized with
lime. Do not get water inside containers.
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
Handling: Wash
thoroughly after handling. Use with adequate ventilation. Minimize dust
generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing.
Keep container of Citric acid tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Do not allow
contact with water. Keep Citric acid from contact with moist air and steam.
Storage: Store Citric acid in a
tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away
from incompatible substances. Store Citric acid protected from moisture.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection
Airborne Exposure Limits: None established.
Ventilation System: A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee
exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally
preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its
source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Please refer
to the ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended
Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and
engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator (NIOSH type
N95 or better filters) may be worn. If oil particles (e.g. lubricants,
cutting fluids, glycerin, etc.) are present, use a NIOSH type R or P
filter. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not
known, use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING:
Air-purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient
atmospheres.
Skin Protection: Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat,
apron or coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where dusting or
splashing of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and
quick-drench facilities in work area of Citric acid.
