EXPLOSION


EXPOSURE
PREVENT DISPERSION OF DUST!

•INHALATION Blue lips or finger nails. Blue skin. Dizziness. Headache. Confusion. Convulsions. Nausea. Unconsciousness.
Local exhaust or breathing protection.
Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention.
•SKIN
Protective gloves.

PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE:
YELLOW NEEDLES.

PHYSICAL DANGERS:


CHEMICAL DANGERS:
The substance decomposes on heating or on burning producing toxic fumes (nitrogen oxides). Reacts with strong oxidants.

OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS:
TLV not established.


ROUTES OF EXPOSURE:
The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation and by ingestion.

INHALATION RISK:
Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly when dispersed.

EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE:
The substance may cause effects on the blood , resulting in formation of methaemoglobin. Medical observation is indicated. The effects may be delayed.

EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE:

PHYSICAL
PROPERTIES

Boiling point: 343°C
Melting point: 132-135°C
Solubility in water: none
Vapour pressure, Pa at 25°C: negligible
Flash point:
190°C o.c.
Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 3.82

ENVIRONMENTAL
DATA

The substance is very toxic to aquatic organisms. It is strongly advised not to let the chemical enter into the environment. The substance may cause long-term effects in the aquatic environment.

N O T E S

Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is indicated. Specific treatment is necessary in case of poisoning with this substance; the appropriate means with instructions must be available.
