CARCINOGENICITY INFORMATION: Not listed as a carcinogen by NTP, IARC, or OSHA..
SECTION VI - REACTIVITY DATA
STABILITY: Stable
INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID): Contact with strong oxidizing agents or alkalis. Water will generate heat
and fumes.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: When heated to boiling point, fumes of SnO2 and SO2 are produced.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: None
SECTION VII - SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Sweep up spilled material. Place in corrosion
resistant container. Flush spill area with large volume of water. Neutralize, using soda ash or lime. May be injurious to
aquatic life if released to open waters.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Disposal of material, container, and washes must be in compliance with all federal, state
and local regulations.
SECTION VIII - SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (SPECIFY TYPE): Use NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator for dust or fumes.
VENTILATION: Provide local exhaust as needed to control exposures to below TLV level.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES: Rubber or neoprene
EYE PROTECTION: Required for fumes, dust or heat
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Acid-proof apron and boots recommended. An eyewash and emergency shower
should be readily available. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
SECTION IX - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING: Keep container tightly closed. Store in cool, dry area

impacting of side walls.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS: Do not get in eyes or allow to come n contact with skin. Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash
contaminated clothing before reuse. Do not reuse container for any purpose. Stannous Sulfate contains a small amount of
residual sulfuric acid and should be handled and stored accordingly. Aqueous solutions of stannous sulfate are acidic and
should be treated similarly to dilute sulfuric acid. Use only in corrosion-resistant vessels.
