7. Handling and Storage
Hygroscopic! Store in a Dry Place! Do Not Expose to Moisture!
Keep in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool. dry. ventilated area. Protect against physical damage.
Separate from acids and alkalis. Do not store in metal containers, as contact with moisture and metal at the same
time may release flammable hydrogen gas. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they
retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
DSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL): 2.5 mg(F)/m3 (TWA)
ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV): 2.5 mg(F)/m3 (TWA)
Ventilation System:
A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee Exposures below the Airborne
Exposure Limits. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the
contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Please refer to the ACGIH
document. Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended Practices, most recent edition, for details. Personal
Respirators (NIDSH Approved): If the exposure limit is exceeded and engineering controls are not feasible, a half
facepiece particulate respirator (NIDSH type N95 or better filters) may be worn for up to ten times the exposure
limit or the maximum use concentration specified by the appropriate regulatory agency or respirator supplier,
whichever is lowest.. A full-face piece particulate respirator (NIDSH type NIDO filters) may be worn up to 5D times
the exposure limit, or the maximum use concentration specified by the appropriate regulatory agency, or
respirator supplier, whichever is lowest. If oil particles (e.g. lubricants, cutting fluids, glycerine, etc.) are present,
use a NIDSH type R or P filter. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known. USE a fullfacepiece positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING: Air-purifying respirators do not protect workers
in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Skin Protection:
Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls, as appropriate, to
prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where dusting or splashing of solutions is possible. Maintain
eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.

11. Toxicological Information
LD5D/LC5D DATA NOT FOUND.
Acute Fluoride Exposure:
The mechanism far acute lethality at high fluoride dose levels is nut fully defined. It is believed that certain
essential enzymatic reactions may be blocked and there may be interference with the origin and transmission of
nerve impulses. The metabolic roles of calcium and physical damage to the kidney and the mucosa of the stomach
and intestine are also believed to be associated with the acute lethality mechanism. Fluoride interacts with bones
and teeth by replacing hydroxyl or bicarbonate ions in hydroxyapatite tn form fluorohydroxyapatite. Fluoride may
function as an essential key to bring about precipitation or nucleation of the apatite lattice in an oriented fashion
on collagen fibers. Accretion of new mineral continues, and fluoride, brought to the surfaces of newly formed
crystals by the extracellular fluid, replaces the hydroxyl ion. As crystal growth continues, fluoride is incorporated
into inner layers of the crystals as well as on the surface. Remodeling of the bone structure takes place by an
interplay of osteoclastic resorption of old bone and osteoblastic deposition of new bone. The presence of
fluornhydroxyapstite increases the crystalline structure of the bone and reduces its solubility. Available evidence
suggests that dental fluorosis results from toxic effects of fluoride on the epithelial enamel organ. Specifically,
several investigators have shown that ameloblasts are susceptible to fluoride. Dental staining often accompanies
fluornsis but does not itself determine the degree of fluorosis. The staining is believed to be due to the oxidation
of organic material in defective enamel or the penetration of hypoplastic sections of enamel by food pigments.
/Fluoride/ [USEPA, Office of Drinking Water; Criteria Document (Draft): Fluoride p.viii-3 (I985) ]
Human Exposure Excerpts:
Most available toxicity information on fluoride relates to acute toxicity of hydrofluoric acid ("HF"). However, other
water soluble fluoride-containing compounds can cause fluoride poisoning. The fluoride ion is systemically
absorbed almost immediately. It is highly penetrating and reactive and can cause both systemic poisoning and
tissue destruction. Fluoride ions, once separated from either HF or fluoride salts, penetrate deep into tissues,
causing burning at sites deeper than the original exposure site. The process of tissue destruction can continue
for days. Fluoride absorption can produce hyperkalemia (elevated serum potassium), hypocalcemia (lowered
serurn calcium), hypomagnesemia (lowered serum magnesium), and metabolic and respiratory acidosis. These
disturbances can then bring on cardiac arrhythmia, respiratory stimulation followed by respiratory depression,
muscle spasms, convulsions, central nervous system ("CNS") depression, possible respiratory paralysis or
cardiac failure, and death. Fluoride may also inhibit cellular respiration and glycolysis, alter membrane
permeability and excitability, and cause neurotaxic and adverse Gl effects. When exposure is through inhalation,
fluorides can cause severe chemical burns to the respiratory system. Inhalation can result in difficulty breathing
(dyspnea), bronchospasms, chemical pneumonitis, pulmonary edema, airway obstruction, and tracheobronchitis.
The severity of burns from dermal absorption can vary depending on the concentration of fluoride available,
duration of the exposure, the surface area exposed, and the penetrability of the exposed tissue. Ocular exposure

can result in serious eye injury. Ingestion of fluoride can result in mild to severe Gl symptoms. Reports suggest
that ingesting 3 to 5 milligrams of fluoride per kilogram of body weight (mg/kg) causes vomiting, diarrhea, and
abdominal pain. Ingestion of more than 5 mg/kg may produce systemic toxicity. A retrospective poison control
center study of fluoride ingestions reported that symptoms, primarily safely tolerated Gl symptoms that tended to
resolve within 24 hours, developed following ingestions of 4 to 8.4 mg/kg of fluoride. [G3 FR 29943 (June 2,
I9BB)]
Human fatalities have resulted from bath oral exposure to sodium fluoride and dermal exposure to hydrofluoric
acid. Dermal exposure to hydrofluoric acid is often accompanied by inhalation of hydrofluoric acid fumes. Human
studies and case reports have investigated the effects of nonlethal oral doses of sodium fluoride, although only
after acute exposure. These exposures have resulted in mostly gastrointestinal effects and consequences of
hypocalcemia (e.g., nervous system and cardiovascular effects). /Sodium fluoride and hydrofluoric acid/

Human Case Reports
Since 1995, there were six reports / to the American Association of Poison Control Centers/ of fluoride
poisoning in children under 5 years of age from a wheel cleaning product. The product contains ammonium
bifluoride and ammonium fluoride salts, reportedly containing at least 15 percent fluoride. Before December, 1996,
it was marketed for household use in non-CR packaging. Since that date it has been packaged in CR packaging,
and in September 1997 it was recalled by the manufacturer. Three deaths from fluoride-containing products were
documented in 1997 after the /CSPC/ staff had completed the briefing package for the proposed rule. Two
involved children under 5 years old. In one case, a 3-year-old female died from cardiac arrest after ingesting the
recalled wheel cleaner described above. The second death involved a 19-month-old female who ingested a rust
remover with hydrofluoric acid and ammonium bifluoride. Finally, a SB-year-old male died from cardiac arrest
after unintentional ingestion of a rust remover with ammonium bifluoride. [63 FR 2994B (June 2,1898) ]
In two separate cases, pediatric patients exposed la Armor-All Quicksilver Wheel Cleaner /containing ammonium
bifluoride/ exhibited systemic toxicity including mental status changes, marked hypocalcemia, and ventricular
fibrillation. One child also demonstrated profound hypomagnesemia. These are the first pediatric reports of
near-fatal outcomes after ingestion or inhalation of a hydrofluoric acid-like product, namely, ammonium
bifluoride. [Klasaer AE et al; Ann Emerg Med 28 (B): 713-8 (I99G) ]
12. Ecological Information
The visible effects of toxic concentrations of fluoride on plants are well documented. They may include chlorosis,
peripheral necrosis, leaf distortion, and malformation or abnormal fruit development. None of these symptoms
are specific to fluoride, and the effects of many other stresses may appear very similar. The diagnosis of fluoride
