Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:THE HYDROGEN CHLORIDE (HCL) FORMED ON
    ACTIVATION IS CORROSIVE TO ALL HUMAN TISSUE. PROLONGED INHALATION
    OF GAS CONCENTRATIONS MODERATELY ABOVE THE TLV CAN DAMAGE THE TEETH
    & NASAL PASSAGES. INHALATION  OF HIGHER CONCENTRATIONS FOR A SHORT
    PERIOD OF TIME CAN CAUSE CHOKING & COUGHING, AND PRODUCE SEVERE
    IRRITATION & DAMAGE TO THE MUCOUS MEMBRANES OF UPPER RESPIRATORY
    TRACT. THE NIOSH-RECOMMENDED IDLH  LEVEL IS 100 PPM. HCL CAN CAUSE
    SEVERE IRRITATION & TISSUE BURNS. IF DEEPLY INHALED, PULMONARY
    EDEMA MAY OCCUR. THE EMITTED TIN COMPOUND IS ALSO AN IRRITANT TO
    EYES, SKIN & MUCOUS MEMBRANES.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
