First-aid measures
INHALATION: Move to fresh air. If symptoms persist, call a physician.
SKIN CONTACT: Remove contaminated clothes. Contact with powder or fines may cause irritation. Wash with soap and water. Seek medical attention if symptoms persist.
EYE CONTACT: Contact of powder may cause serious eye irritation. Flush wide open eye(s) with running water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical help immediately.
INGESTION: If swallowed, seek medical attention. May cause gastrointestinal irritation. Drink neutralising liquids like milk and/or dose drug grade activated coal.
Oxalic acid and boric acid may be released in prolonged contact with water and cause irritation.

REACTIVITY: Do not expose to elevated temperature or water.
CHEMICAL STABILITY: May react with strong oxidising agents. Organic solvents may degrade the product.
POSSIBILITY OF HAZARDOUS REACTIONS: Formation of oxalic acid and boric acid.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Places of high humidity.
INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS: Water, alkali, strong oxidisers.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Oxalic acid, boric acid.
Disposal considerations
Hazardous waste. Dispose off according to laws and directives following the advice of local authorities.
