3. Hazards Identification - Continued
Skin Hazards
Corrosive to skin. Skin contact with aqueous solutions or the dry powder upon contact with moisture or perspiration
may cause skin burns or ulceration; temporary body hair loss may occur in contacted areas. Skin contact with the
product may cause allergic skin reactions in sensitive individuals.
Ingestion Hazards
May cause irritation of the throat. Ingestion may cause inflammation and damage to the lining of the stomach,
resulting in bleeding. Ingestion may cause gastritis possibly progressing to necrosis or hemorrhage.
Inhalation Hazards
Inhalation may cause nose bleeds and irritation of the upper respiratory passages with coughing and discomfort.
Signs And Symptoms
Irritant to eyes and skin due to oxidizing properties
First Aid (Pictograms)
4. First Aid Measures
Eye
In case of contact, hold eyelids apart and immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Call a
physician or a poison control center immediately.
Skin
Wash affected areas with soap and water. Call a physician. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion
DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Drink large amounts of water. Call a physician or a poison control center immediately.
Inhalation
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Consult
Physician
Fire Fighting (Pictograms)
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point: N/A 掳F
Fire And Explosion Hazards
Improper storage of large masses of this product can trap heat and lead to ignition of combustibles. Grinding or
intensive mixing may cause decomposition with liberation of heat and oxygen; ignition of oxidizable material if
present may occur.
Extinguishing Media
In case of fire, soak (flood) with water.
Fire Fighting Instructions
Will release oxygen when heated, intensifying a fire. Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and
full protective gear.
GRINDING OR INTENSIVE MIXING MAY GENERATE SUFFICIENT HEAT TO FUSE PRODUCT AND CAUSE IGNITION
OF OXIDIZABLE MATERIAL PRESENT.

10. Stability And Reactivity
Sta bility: Stable
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur
Conditions To Avoid (Stability)
The mixture of this product with compounds containing halides or active halogens (bromine, chlorine, iodine) can
cause the release of the respective halogen gas, if moisture is present. Avoid these gases (bromine and chlorine)
because they are very irritating to eyes and lungs even at low concentrations. Never mix concentrated product with
dry or concentrated bromine containing chemicals, such as bromates, bromides, or any concentrated bromine pool
chemicals. Mixing this prodcut with dry or concentrated chlorine containing chemicals, such as hypochlorites,
sodium dichloroisocyanurate, sodium triisocyanurate or with sodium chloride, may cause the release of chlorine gas.
Mixing with cyanides can cause release of hydrogen cyanide gas. Mixing with heavy metal salts such as those of
cobalt, nickel, copper, or manganese can cause decomposition with release of oxygen and heat.
Incompatible Materials
Alkalis, Heavy Metals cause evolution of Oxygen gas. Halogens and cyanides can cause release of gases of these
compounds.
Hazardous Decomposition Products
Oxygen
