Information
Silver and indoun are present in this alloy. Exposure to high
concentrations of silver fumes or dust may cause dermitittis or upper respiratory
tract irritation. Exposure to high concentrations of indium may cause skin irritation
or toxicity when ingested.
FIRST AID: Skin Contact: Flush skin and scrub
with soap and water.
Inhalation: Remove person to fresh air. Assist breathing
with oxygen if necessary. Ingestion: Give large doses of water to induce vomiting.
