communication.
5.6 Barricade the area and restrict any unwanted movement of personnel.

6.0 HAZARDS AND RISKS INVOLVED:

SR# HAZARD RISKS REMEDIAL MEASURES
a. Prolonged skin contact may cause a) Wash the affected area with soap
some irritation and water. If irritation persists obtain
medical advice.
b. Eye contact may cause irritation
b) Flush with plenty of water at least
c. Ingestion in large quantities may
for 15 min. if it is necessary seek
Ammonium give rise to gastro intestinal
6.1 medical assistance.
