HEALTH HAZARD DATA
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
CAUTION: This product is labeled in accordance with regulations administered by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The use pattern and exposure in the workplace are generally not consistent with those experienced by consumers. The requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration applicable to this Material Safety Data Sheet differ from the requirements of the CPSC and as a result, this MSDS may contain additional health hazard information not pertinent to consumer use and not found on the product label.
NOTE: The acute health effects described below are those, which could potentially occur for the finished product. They are based on the toxicology information available for the finished product and/or each hazardous ingredient, and are consistent with the product type and the likelihood of a specific route of exposure. Known chronic health effects related to exposure to a specific ingredient are indicated.
ACUTE HEALTH EFFECTS:
INHALATION: Unlikely to occur given the physical properties of the product. Mists may cause respiratory tract irritation. May cause sensitization by inhalation. Avoid inappropriate handling, which may result in aerosol/dust generation.
SKIN CONTACT: Repeated or prolonged excessive exposure can result in defatting and drying of the skin, which may result in irritation and dermatitis.
EYE CONTACT: May cause moderate to severe irritation, with possibility of corneal injury if not removed promptly.
INGESTION: Large quantities may cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and lethargy.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY RECOGNIZED AS BEING AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Persons with pre-existing skin conditions, asthma, or respiratory allergies.

From MSDS
No chronic health effects are expected from the intended use of these products or from foreseeable handling of them in the workplace. Nonetheless, the following effects have been reported for a component, sodium borate, and boric acid. Sodium borate upon entry into the body becomes boric acid.
Boric Acid: Boric acid interferes with sperm production, damage the testes and interfere with male fertility when given to animals by mouth at high doses. Boric acid produces developmental effects, including reduced body weight, malformations and death, in the offspring of pregnant animals given boric acid by mouth. The above-mentioned animal studies were conducted under exposure conditions leading to doses many times in excess of those that could occur through product use or inhalation of dust in occupational settings. Moreover, a human study of occupational exposure to boric acid dust showed no adverse effect on fertility.
