ulceration. Causes scar tissue formation.
medical cond aggravated by exposure: persons with a history of skin,
cardiovascular and respiratory disorders may be at increased risk
from exposure.
First aid: eye/skin: immediately flush with plenty of water for 15
minutes. Get medical attention. Inhalation: remove to fresh air.
