CAS No.: |
14639-25-9 |
Percent: |
100% |
SECTION 4: First Aid Measures
Always get medical attention after the first aid is over.
Inhalation: |
CIf Chromium Picolinate is inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen and get medical attention immediately. |
Ingestion: |
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention. |
Skin Contact: |
Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention. Wash clothing and shoes before reuse. |
Eye Contact: |
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately. |
SECTION 5: Fire Fighting Measures
Fire: |
Not a fire hazard. |
Fire Extinguishing Media: |
Water spray, dry chemical, alcohol foam, or carbon dioxide. |
Special Information: |
In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full face piece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode. |
SECTION 6: Accidental Release Measures
Small Spill: |
Use appropriate tools to put the spilled solid in a convenient waste disposal container. |
Large Spill: |
Corrosive solid. Stop leak if without risk. Do not touch spilled material.
Use water spray to reduce vapors. Prevent entry into sewers, basements or confined areas; dike if needed. Eliminate all ignition sources. |
SECTION 7: Accidental Release Measures
- Keep Chromium Picolinate in a tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area.
- Protect against physical damage. Isolate from incompatible substances.
- Containers of Chromium Picolinate may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
- Avoid dust formation.
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. |
