3. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
No specific data is available for this material, however, as this material is
assumed to readily decompose, and in view of the probable decomposition
products, it is classified as being toxic by all routes of exposure.
4. FIRST AID MEASURES

persist, seek medical attention.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Although the material is not flammable, toxic fumes will be produced if involved in
a fire. The residue, ash or char left after a fire may have catalytic properties and
may promote the re-ignition of flammable materials and vapours. Wear self-
contained breathing apparatus and personal protective equipment. Use any
extinguisher suitable for the surrounding fire.
