10 STABILITY AND REACTIVITY

Stable.

Do not store in aluminium or galvanised containers. Store away

from acids. LCD-11 is a caustic product which attacks

soft metals.

Hazardous polymerization: None.

11 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

Health Effects:

Acute -

Swallowed

: Because of its high alkalinity in the undiluted

state, LCD-11 is corrosive to the gastro-intestinal tract if

swallowed. Considered to be toxic by all exposure routes.

Can kill if swallowed. Causes severe burns.

Skin:

Principal route of exposure is usually by skin contact.

Corrosive to the eyes and skin on contact. Skin contact may

cause swelling, redness, blistering, dermatitis or burns with

deep ulceration and gelatinous necrotic areas at the site of

contact. Skin contact may result in little pain, thus care

should be taken to avoid contamination of gloves and boots.

Eye:

Corrosive. Contamination of the eyes can result in

conjunctivitis and corneal burns and ulceration which can

result in permanent injury and possible loss of sight. Risk of

serious damage to eyes.

Inhaled:

Inhalation risk is low if product is used as directed,

but breathing of concentrated vapour should be avoided.

Health Effects -

Chronic:

None known.

Toxicity data: Not available for mixture.

For potassium hydroxide: Oral LD50 (rat) = 365 mg/kg

(potassium hydroxide solid). Potassium hydroxide has low

systemic toxicity.

(Note: this data is from published information. Agar Cleaning

Systems does not carry out animal tests).

12 ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION

Ecotoxicity: No data available.

Persistence and degradability: -

Mobility: -

Advice: Prevent contamination of waterways and drains.

13 DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS

For disposal, refer to State Land Waste Management authority.

Empty containers must be decontaminated. LCD-11 can

be greatly diluted or carefully neutralised with dilute acid and

flushed to drain with copious amounts of water.
