TYPES OF HAZARD / EXPOSURE |
ACUTE HAZARDS / SYMPTOMS | PREVENTION | FIRST AID / FIRE FIGHTING |
| FIRE | Not combustible. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. Heating will cause rise in pressure with risk of bursting. | Use dry powder, carbon dioxide. NO water. | |
| EXPLOSION | In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water. NO direct contact with water. | ||
| EXPOSURE | AVOID ALL CONTACT! | IN ALL CASES CONSULT A DOCTOR! | |
| Inhalation | Cough. Sore throat. Burning sensation. Laboured breathing. | Use ventilation, local exhaust or breathing protection. | Fresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer immediately for medical attention. |
| Skin | Redness. Pain. Serious skin burns. | Protective gloves. Protective clothing. | First rinse with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, then remove contaminated clothes and rinse again. Refer for medical attention . |
| Eyes | Redness. Pain. Severe deep burns. | Wear face shield or eye protection in combination with breathing protection. | First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention. |
| Ingestion | Burning sensation. Sore throat. Abdominal pain. Shock or collapse. | Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. | Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer immediately for medical attention. |

| PHYSICAL PROPERTIES | ENVIRONMENTAL DATA |
|
Decomposes at 59°C Melting point: -78°C Relative density (water = 1): 1.6 Solubility in water: reaction Vapour pressure, kPa at 20°C: 23 Relative vapour density (air = 1): 3.6 Relative density of the vapour/air-mixture at 20°C (air = 1): 1.5 Auto-ignition temperature: 234°C |
The substance is very toxic to aquatic organisms. It is strongly advised not to let the chemical enter into the environment. |
| NOTES |
|
Reacts violently with fire extinguishing agents such as water. The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation is therefore essential. Immediate administration of an appropriate inhalation therapy by a doctor or a person authorized by him/her, should be considered. |
