EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: clear light brown liquid.
Warning! Causes respiratory tract irritation.
Irritant. Causes eye and skin irritation. May cause digestive tract
irritation. May cause central nervous system depression. Metabolized
to cyanide in the body, which may cause headache, dizziness,
weakness, unconsciousness, convulsions, coma and possible death. May
cause cardiac disturbances.
Target Organs: Central nervous system,
cardiovascular system.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation. May cause chemical conjunctivitis.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. May be metabolized to cyanide which in turn
acts by inhibiting cytochrome oxidase impairing cellular
respiration.
Ingestion:
May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea. May cause cardiac disturbances. The toxicological
properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. May
cause central nervous system depression. Metabolism may release
cyanide, which may result in headache, dizziness, weakness, collapse,
unconsciousness and possible death. Ingestion may result in symptoms
similar to cyanide poisoning which is characterized by asphyxiation.
Inhalation:
Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause cardiac
abnormalities. Can produce delayed pulmonary edema. May be
metabolized to cyanide which in turns act by inhibiting cytochrome
oxidase impairing cellular respiration. Inhalation may result in
symptoms similar to cyanide poisoning which include tachypnea,
hyperpnea (abnormally rapid or deep breathing), and dyspnea (labored
breathing) followed rapidly by respiratory depression. Pulmonary
edema may occur. Inhalation at high concentrations may cause CNS
depression and asphixiation.
Chronic:
May be metabolized to cyanide which in turn acts by inhibiting
cytochrome oxidase impairing cellular respiration. Effects may be
delayed. Chronic exposure to cyanide solutions may lead to the
development of a "cyanide" rash, characterized by itching, and by
macular, papular, and vesicular eruptions, and may be accompanied by
secondary infections. Exposure to small amounts of cyanide compounds
over long periods of time is reported to cause loss of appetite,
headache, weakness, nausea, dizziness, and symptoms of irritation of
the upper respiratory tract and eyes.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
|
Eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical
aid. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and
drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Wash mouth out with water.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not
breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical aid. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively. May be partially metabolized
to cyanide in the body.
Antidote:
Always have a cyanide antidote kit on hand when working with cyanide
compounds. Get medical advice to use.
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
|
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases
may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Vapors may
be heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and collect
in low or confined areas. Runoff from fire control or dilution water
may cause pollution.
Extinguishing Media:
Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam.
Flash Point: Not available.
Autoignition Temperature: Not available.
Explosion Limits, Lower:Not available.
Upper: Not available.
NFPA Rating:
(estimated) Health: 2; Flammability: 0; Instability: 0
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
|
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth),
then place in suitable container. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and
ditches which lead to waterways. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Provide
ventilation.
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
|
Handling:
Avoid breathing dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Avoid contact with eyes,
skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion
and inhalation. Use with adequate ventilation. Wash clothing before
reuse.
Storage:
Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection
|
Engineering Controls:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate
ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low.
