N/A*

*No analysis.

E.D.S.A. is harmful to the environment and should not be put into water courses. There may be mild irritation to some, so at the very least wear a mask, gloves and glasses. Do not use in the domestic environment and eat or drink in your workspace. Keep working areas free of dust, cleaning up with a damp sponge.

In keeping with our overall general advice, we also suggest wearing full PPE including mask, safety glasses, gloves and work in a ventilated area.
It is a sensible precaution for children not to work with raw materials.
