Internal: Rinse out mouth, give 1 to 2 cups of water or milk, induce vomiting. Call a physician or poison control at once.


Section 5 鈥? Fire Fighting Measures
Non-flammable, noncombustible solid. NFPA CODE
When heated to decomposition, emits toxic fumes of iodide and various iodine compounds. None Established
Fire Fighting Instructions: Use triclass, dry chemical fire extinguisher. Firefighters should wear PPE
and SCBA with full facepiece operated in positive pressure mode.


Section 6 鈥? Accidental Release Measures
Restrict unprotected personnel from area. Sweep up, place in sealed bag or container and dispose. Ventilate area and wash spill site
after material pickup is complete. See Sections 8 and 13 for further information.



Section 7 鈥? Handling and Storage
