3. Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview :
WARNING!

C
auses irritation to skin, eyes and respiratory track. Harmful if swallowed or inhaled. May affect the heart, blood, thyroid and central nervous system.

 
Inhalation:
May cause irritation to the respiratory tract. Symptoms may include
 coughing and shortness of breath.
Ingestion:
May cause vomiting, disorientation, weakness, low blood pressure,
 convulsions and death which may be delayed. The probable lethal dose is
between 15-30 grams.
Skin Contact:
Causes irritation to skin. Symptoms include redness, itching, and pain.
Eye Contact: Causes irritation, redness, and pain.
Chronic Exposure:
Prolonged or repeated skin exposure may cause dermatitis. Repeated ingestion of
small amounts may cause hives, abnormal bleeding, enlarged thyroid, weakness,
confusion, diarrhea, psychosis, and collapse.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions: No information found.

4. First Aid Measures
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Ingestion:
If swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Give large quantities of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately.
Skin Contact:
Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse.
Eye Contact:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.

5. Fire Fighting Measures

Fire: Not considered to be a fire hazard.
Explosion: Not considered to be an explosion hazard.
Fire Extinguishing Media:
 Water, sand earth, foam.
Special Information: In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and self-contained
 breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode. Poisonous gases are produced in fire.

6. Accidental Release Measures

Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8 .
 Spills: Sweep up and containerize for reclamation or disposal. Vacuuming or wet sweeping may be used to avoid dust dispersal.

7. Handling and Storage

Keep in a tightly closed light-resistant container, stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area.
 Protect against physical damage. Isolate from incompatible substances. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.

8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

Airborne Exposure Limits: None established.
Ventilation System: In general, dilution ventilation is a satisfactory health hazard control for
 this substance. However, if conditions of use create discomfort to the worker, a local exhaust system should be considered.
Personal Respirators: For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and
 engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator may be worn. If oil particles (e.g. lubricants, cutting fluids, glycerine, etc.) are present, use a filter.
 For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator.
 WARNING: Air-purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Skin Protection: Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where dusting
or splashing of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.

10. Stability and Reactivity

Stability: Stable under ordinary conditions of use and storage. Decomposes on exposure to light.
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Burning may produce nitrogen oxides, sulfur compounds,
 and possibly cyanides.
at 170℃ may produce highly toxic fumes of hydrogen cyanide, hydrogen sulfide and toxic oxides of nitrogen, sulfur, and carbon.
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur.
Incompatibilities: Chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, strong acids, strong oxidizing agents, mineral acids.
Soluble in water, ethanol, aceton; decomposes on heating and under influence of light producing toxic fumes of sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides and cyanides. Reacts violently with acids, strong bases and strong oxidants.

11. Disposal Considerations

Whatever cannot be saved for recovery or recycling should be managed in an appropriate
and approved waste disposal facility. Processing, use or contamination of this product may change the waste management options. State and local disposal regulations may differ from federal disposal regulations. Dispose of container and unused contents in accordance

 with federal, state and local requirements.

12. Transport Information

Keep in tightly closed bag  or  iron barrels .

Store in cool, dry, ventilated area to prevent it from being deliquescent. Separated from acides, bases and oxidants. avoid to be caught in rain  and solarization
