About this file

This document is a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for AQUATROL® 12425, a corrosion and scale inhibitor product manufactured by Momar, Inc. located in Atlanta, Georgia.

The product is classified as hazardous, with hazard classifications for eye damage/irritation (Category 2A) and skin corrosion/irritation (Category 2), carrying a "Warning" signal word. The primary hazards include serious eye irritation and skin irritation upon contact. The active ingredients are trisodium phosphate (less than 10%), potassium hydroxide (less than 19%), and sodium tolyltriazole (less than 9%). First aid measures require immediate flushing with water for eye contact (15-20 minutes minimum) and skin contact (15 minutes minimum), with medical attention recommended for persistent irritation. The product has a pH of 12.5-13.0, is completely soluble in water, has a specific gravity of 1.200, and is not flammable. Storage requirements specify a cool, dry location away from freezing temperatures and incompatible materials including strong oxidizing agents, basic amines, and acids. Do not store in 304 stainless steel, carbon steel, or aluminum containers. Personal protective equipment recommendations include chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection (safety glasses/goggles), and chemical-resistant aprons as needed. The product is regulated under DOT transportation requirements as UN1814 (Potassium Hydroxide Solution, Hazard Class 8, Corrosive, Packing Group III) and all ingredients are listed in the TSCA inventory. Emergency contact for INFOTRAC is 1-800-535-5053 (North America) or 1-352-323-3500 (International). The SDS was originally issued February 12, 2020, with revision dated July 7, 2021.
