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. 聽 聽
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Wearing gloves and eye protection, sweep up the spillage and store in
sealed, plastic containers, ready for disposal. Wash the area with water. 聽 聽
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
If the process is dusty or if fume is created, local exhaust extraction should be

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE (continued)
Store in a cool, dry area away from incompatible materials, such as liquid
Storage (JM)
halogenated hydrocarbons and oxidising agents. Protect from physical
damage. Powder and other active forms should be kept in tightly sealed
containers under nitrogen.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
No Occupational Exposure Limit, MAK or TLV has been established for this
material. If a risk of inhalation exists, users should wear an appropriate filter

10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
The material is supplied in a stable condition and no reactive hazards are
known.
11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
LD50 (oral-rat): >5000 mg/kg.
eye-rabbit: non-irritant.
skin-rabbit: non-irritant.
There is no evidence that ruthenium compounds give rise to an allergy
problem,
similar to that observed with platinum-halogen complexes.
12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
The effect of ruthenium compounds on the environment has not been
investigated but the hazard is thought to be low. Ruthenium is not
concentrated by plants or animals. Natural processes will tend to produce
insoluble compounds. 聽
