[Fire Fighting] Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Non-combustible, substance itself does not burn but may decompose upon heating to produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic fumes. Extinguishing media: Substance is noncombustible; use agent most appropriate to extinguish surrounding fire. In case of fire use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam. | |
[Fire Potential] This material is probably combustible. | |
[Ingestion] Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. | |
[Inhalation] Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid. DO NOT use mouth-to-mouth respiration. | |
[Skin] Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. | |
[Eyes] Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid. | |
[Storage] Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Refrigerator (approx 4 C). | |
[Handling] Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use with adequate ventilation. Wash clothing before reuse. | |
[Inhalation] Causes respiratory tract irritation. Can produce delayed pulmonary edema. Exposure to thermodegradation products may cause influenza-like symptoms such as chills, headache, mild respiratory discomfort, shaking of the limbs, and high fever. | |
[Skin] Causes skin irritation. May cause erythema, and edema with crusting and scaling. | |
[Eyes] Causes eye irritation. May cause chemical conjunctivitis. | |
[Ingestion] May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause liver damage. Exposure may cause anemia and other blood abnormalities. May cause anemia, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia. | |
[Personal Protection] Eyes: Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European Standard EN166. Skin: Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin exposure. Clothing: Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin exposure. | |
[Respirators] A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29 CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use. | |
[Exposure Effects] May cause cancer according to animal studies. Effects may be delayed. Chronic exposure may cause liver damage. | |
[Appearance] White to ivory microcrystals or off-white crystalline solid. | |
