SECTION . FIRE AND EXPLOSION INFORMATION (continued)
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES :
To minimize the progressive generation of noxious gases, flood burning material with large quantities
of water. Must wear NIOSH / MSHA approved self- contained breathing apparatus and protective
clothing. Cool fire-exposed containers with water spray.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS :
Material is a strong oxidizer and corrosive. May ignite combustible materials and may produce noxious
gases. Products of combustion are toxic.
Airborne dusts of this product in an enclosed space and in the presence of an ignition source may
constitute an explosion hazard. Use adequate explosion-proof ventilation systems to control dust at the
source. Avoid generating product dust near sources of ignition, including static electricity. Use safety
measures in accordance with the 1988 edition of NFPA 654 ( Standard for the Prevention of Dust
Explosions in the Chemical, Dye, Pharmaceutical and Plastic Industries) .
SECTION . HEALTH EFFECTS INFORMATION
ROUTES OF ENTRY - SKIN CONTACT : EYE CONTACT :
INHALATION : INGESTION :
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE :
Direct skin and eye contact can result in severe skin and eye irritation.
Prolonged contact may produce irreversible damage. Inhalation of high concentrations can be severely
irritating to the lung with potential systemic absorption and tissue damage. Repeated skin exposure
may induce sensitization.
OVEREXPOSURE MAY AGGRAVATE EXISTING CONDITIONS :
No effects indicated.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES :
Eyes : Flush eyes with large amounts of running water for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids apart to
ensure rinsing of the entire surface of the eye and lids with water. Get immediate medical attention.
If physician not available, flush for additional 15 minutes and then transport victim to medical care.
Skin : Immediately wipe away excess material with a dry cloth while removing contaminated clothing
and shoes. Under safety shower, wash affected areas thoroughly with large amounts water, and soap
if available, for at least 15 minutes. Get immediate medical attention. Discard or decontaminate
clothing and shoes.
Ingestion : If swallowed, immediately give 3-4 glasses of water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting
occurs, give fluids again. Get immediate medical attention. Have physician determine if patient's
condition allows induction of vomiting or evacuation of stomach. Do not give anything by mouth to an
unconscious or convulsing person.
Inhalation : Remove from area to fresh air. If not breathing, clear airway and start artificial respiration.
If victim is having trouble breathing, give supplemental oxygen, if available. Get immediate medical
attention.

OCCUR OCCUR
INCOMPATIBILITY ( MATERIALS TO AVOID )
WATER OTHER Strong acids and alkalis, high storage temperatures, moisture
and readily oxidizable material.
SECTION . SPILL AND DISPOSAL INFORMATION
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED
Danger ! Oxidizing and corrosive material. Dust explosion hazard. Do not get in eyes or on skin. Do
not breath dust. For spills, wear appropriate protective gear, and respiratory protection. Where dust
may be generated, wear full face respiraroty protection, and remove all sources of ignition. For large
spills, or when spilled material comes in contact with water, self - contained breathing apparatus is
preferred.
Carefully sweep up spilled material (avoid generating dust )and place in an appropriate container for
disposal. Do not contaminate with oxidizable materials. Neutralize any residue with dilute, alkaline
sodium bisulfate or thiosulfate solution ; absorb with sand or vermiculite and place in compatible
container for disposal. If spilled material is wet, neutralize and proceed as stated above.
Material is toxic to fish. Do not discharge into lakes, streams, ponds or public water unless in
accordance with an NPDES permit.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHODS
Dispose of in compliance with all federal, state and local laws and regulations.
Incineration is the preferred method. Relatively small quantities of product may be neutralized as
stated above, and if in accordance with local laws and the operators of the local sewage treatment
plant, the neutralized material may be discharged into the sewer system.
SECTION . PERSONAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
VENTILATION TYPE :
In processes where dusts or airborne particulates may be generated, proper ventilation must be
provided in accordance with good ventilation practices.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION :
In processes where dusts or airborne particulates may be generated, a NIOSH / MSHA jointly
approved respirator is advised in the absence of proper environmental controls.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES :
Rubber or neoprene, to prevent skin contact.
EYE PROTECTION :
Wear chemical goggles where there is a potential for eye contact. Use safety glasses with side shields
under normal use conditions.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT :
Eye wash ; safety shower ; protective clothing ( long sleeves, coveralls or other, as appropriate ), to
prevent skin contact.
