Hazardous combustion
products |
Hazardous decomposition products formed under fire conditions. - Sodium oxides |
|
Protective Equipment |
Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary. |
|
Advice for firefighters |
Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating gases and vapors. Water reactive. Corrosive Material. Causes severe burns by all exposure routes.As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full protective gear. |
|
Small Spillage |
Use appropriate tools to put the spilled solid in a convenient waste disposal container. If necessary: Neutralize the residue with a dilute solution of acetic acid. |
|
Personal Protection |
Use personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. |
|
Enviromental Precaution |
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided. |
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning |
Soak up with inert absorbent material and dispose of as hazardous waste. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. |
|
Handling |
Use only under a chemical fume hood. Wear personal protective equipment. Avoid dust formation. Do not breathe dust. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. |
|
Storage |
Keep container tightly closed. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Hygroscopic. Deliquescent. |
|
Advice on general occupational hygiene |
Do not breathe dust. Never add water to this product. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable
respiratory equipment. If you feel unwell, seek medical attention and show the label when possible. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep away from incompatibles such as oxidizing agents, reducing agents, metals, acids, alkalis, moisture |
Engineering Controls:
|
Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to keep airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If user operations generate dust, fume or mist, use ventilation to keep exposure to airborne contaminants below the exposure limit. |
|
Personal Protection |
Splash goggles. Synthetic apron. Vapor and dust respirator. Be sure to use an approved/certified respirator or equivalent. Gloves. |
Exposure Limits:
|
STEL: 2 (mg/m3) from ACGIH (TLV) [United States] TWA: 2 CEIL: 2 (mg/m3) from OSHA (PEL) [United States] CEIL: 2 (mg/ m3) from NIOSHConsult local authorities for acceptable exposure limits. |
|
Other Protection Measure |
Splash goggles. Full suit. Vapor and dust respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self contained breathing apparatus should be used to avoid inhalation of the product. Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist BEFORE handling this product. |
