Component Description: White to off-white crystalline powder in pure form
Inhalation: Move to fresh air. Seek medical attention if symptoms develop such as coughing, shortness of breath, throat irritation.
Skin Contact: Rinse area under running water and remove contaminated clothing. Wash thoroughly with soap and water for at least 15 minutes.
Eye Contact: Rinse eyes with gentle stream of lukewarm water for at least 20 minutes, lifting eyelids occasionally. Remove contact lenses.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Drink small amounts of water only if person is conscious and alert. Get immediate medical assistance.
Most Important Symptoms: Burning sensation in eyes or skin, headache, irritation, nausea
Note to Physician: Symptomatic treatment. Observe for development of respiratory symptoms or delayed effects.
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use dry chemical, carbon dioxide (CO₂), or foam extinguishers on small fires. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers.
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: High pressure water streams can spread chemically active dust.
Specific Hazards: May emit toxic or irritating fumes (oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide) in case of fire. Heavy smoke possible at high temperature.
Special Protective Equipment: Firefighters need full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus.
Additional Advice: Remove all persons from proximity to fire, prevent runoff from reaching drains or water sources.
Personal Precautions: Use personal protection like gloves, goggles, and a dust mask or respirator. Ventilate area well. Evacuate non-essential staff.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent spillage from entering sewers, surface water, or groundwater. Avoid environmental release.
Clean-up Methods: Sweep up spilled material using non-sparking tools. Place in closed labeled containers for disposal. Wash area with detergent and water after cleanup.
Information for Emergency Responders: Wear appropriate chemical protective clothing and respiratory protection.
Safe Handling Procedures: Handle with care. Avoid dust generation, inhalation, and direct contact with skin or eyes. Use only in well-ventilated areas.
Technical Measures: Employ local exhaust ventilation. Use spark-resistant tools. Avoid eating, drinking, or smoking during use.
Storage Conditions: Store tightly closed in original container, in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Keep away from strong acids, oxidizers, and ignition sources.
Storage Temperature: Keep at 2–8°C (refrigerated) for long-term stability.
Special Packaging Materials: Use containers made of polyethylene, glass, or compatible plastic.
Occupational Exposure Limits: No established OSHA or ACGIH limits for compound. Work with general chemical exposure guidelines (TWA not to exceed 1 mg/m³).
Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation, fume hoods, sealed transfer systems.
Respiratory Protection: Use NIOSH-approved dust mask or half-face respirator for airborne exposure risk.
Skin Protection: Wear chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile, butyl). Laboratory coat or apron recommended.
Eye Protection: Chemical safety goggles and face shield if splashing possible.
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands after handling, do not touch face. Discard contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.
