| SECTION 3: Hazards Identification | |
|---|---|
| Emergency Overview: | Harmful by inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed. May ignite spontaneously on contact with air. Contact with skin may result in severe chemical burns. |
| Primary Routes of Exposure: | Skin and inhalation |
| Eye Contact: | May cause mild to severe irritation of the eyes. |
| Skin Contact: | Harmful in contact with skin. May cause mild irritation of the skin, or thermal burns if ignited. |
| Inhalation: | Harmful by inhalation. Inhalation may lead to dizziness and headaches. |
| Ingestion: | Harmful if swallowed. Ingestion is an unlikely mode of entry as the material is pyrophoric and has a noxious odor. |
| Acute Health Effects: | Harmful by inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed. |
| Chronic Health Effects: | No information available on long term exposure to this material. |
| NTP: | No |
| IARC: | No |
| OSHA: | No |
| SECTION 4: First Aid Measures | |
|---|---|
| Eye Exposure: | Immediately flush the eyes with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. A victim will need assistance in keeping their eye lids open. Get immediate medical attention. |
| Skin Exposure: | Wash the affected area immediately with water. Remove contaminated clothing if necessary. Seek medical assistance if irritation persists. |
| Inhalation: | Remove victim to fresh air immediately. Keep the victim lying down and warm. Give oxygen as soon as possible. If shock occurs, respond with appropriate first aid. Transport the victim to a hospital. |
| Ingestion: | Seek medical attention immediately. Keep the victim calm. Give water to dilute the toxin (only if conscious). Induce vomiting only if directed by medical personnel. |
| SECTION 5: Fire Fighting Measures | |
|---|---|
| Flash Point: | no data |
| Autoignition Temperature: | Pyrophoric |
| Explosion Limits: | Pyrophoric |
| Extinguishing Medium: | carbon dioxide, dry powder or foam |
| Special Fire Fighting Procedures: | The pyrophoric liquid may reignite. Fire fighters should be equipped with an approved positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. |
| Hazardous Combustion and Decomposion Products: | If involved in a fire this material may emit toxic organic fumes and vapors of phosphorus pentoxide. |
| Unusual Fire or Explosion Hazards: | Spontaneously flammable in air, especially in contact with organic matter such as paper or cloth. |
| SECTION 6: Accidental Release Measures | |
|---|---|
| Spill and Leak Procedures: | 'The material may ignite spontaneously in air. Avoid static discharge. Burning material may release toxic fumes. In case of poor ventilation, leave the area unless fitted with a self-contained breathing apparatus. Small spills can be mixed with ground limestone, sodium bicarbonate, or other suitable absorbents, swept up, and held in a closed metal can. |
| SECTION 7: Handling and Storage | |
|---|---|
| Handling and Storage: | Store in a tightly sealed container under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen or argon. Keep away from heat. Material should be transferred under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen or argon in a efficient fume hood. Fire may occur in emptied container and transfer lines. |
| SECTION 8: Exposure Controls and Personal Protection | |
|---|---|
| Eye Protection: | Always wear approved safety glasses. When handling this substance wear a face shield as added protection. |
| Skin Protection: | Wear protective clothing and gloves. Consult with glove manufacturer to determine the proper type of glove. |
| Ventilation: | Material has a pungent odor. Always handle material in an efficient fume hood. |
| Respirator: | If ventilation is not available a respirator should be worn. The use of respirators requires a Respirator Protection Program to be in compliance 29 CFR 1910.134. |
| Additional Protection: | Wear a full face shield, flame resistant lab apron and suitable gloves. |
