Abstract: International Chemical
Safety Card. Exposure routes: inhalation and ingestion. Short
term exposure effects: irritation of the skin, eyes and respiratory
tract; effects on the calcium metabolism, resulting in
cardiac disorders and impaired function.
Long-term exposure effects: effects on the bone, resulting in
fluorosis. Threshold limit
value: 2.5mg/m3
(TWA) as fluorine (ACGIH 1997-1998).
