N.A. N.A. Health Hazard (Acute and Chronic) / Toxiclogical information In case of electrolyte leakage, skin will be itchy when contaminated with electrolyte. In contact with electrolyte can cause severe irritation and chemical burns. Inhalation of electrolyte vapors may cause irritation of the upper respiratory tract and lungs. Section VII First Aid Measures First Aid Procedures If electrolyte leakage occurs and makes contact with skin, wash with plenty of water immediately. If electrolyte comes into contact with eyes, wash with copious amounts of water for fifteen (15) minutes, and contact a physician. If electrolyte vapors are inhaled, provide fresh air and seek medical attention if respiratory irritation develops. Ventilate the contaminated area.
