Likely routes of exposure
Exposure may occur via inhalation, ingestion, skin absorption, skin or
eye contact, and accidental ingestion.
Inhalation is the primary route of exposure although absorption may
occur through skin contact or following accidental ingestion.
Skin and eye contact are the primary routes of exposure although
exposure may occur through inhalation or following accidental
Skin and eye contact are theingestion.
primary routes of exposure although
exposure may occur following accidental ingestion.
Inhalation is the primary route of exposure although exposure may
occur through skin or eye contact.
Inhalation is not expected to be a relevant route of exposure except
under conditions where exposure to vapors, aerosols or mists is
possible.
Inhalation is the primary
route of exposure.
This material penetrates the intact skin and eye rapidly as a liquid or
mist, producing severe burns.
