Health Hazards Information -Recommended Personal Protective Equipment: Dust respirator, rubber
gloves; goggles; Symptoms Following Exposure: Inhalation of dust irritates nose and throat; fumes from
hot material may cause same symptoms as ingestion. Phenylhydrazine is a chronic poison; ingestion
can cause jaundice, anorexia, nausea, and vascular thrombosis; may also cause anemia and liver injury.
Contact with eyes causes irritation. Contact with skin causes irritation and dermatitis; General
Treamzent for Exposure: INHALATION: move to fresh air; get medical attention. INGESTION give
large amounts of water; induce vomiting; get medical attention. EYES: flush with water for at least 15
min.; if exposure is prolonged or repeated, get medical attention. SJSIN: flush with water; Toxicity by
Inhalation Freshold Limit Value): Data not available; Short-Tern Inhalation Limits: Data not
