Inhalation: Remove person to fresh air, keep at rest in a comfortable position, obtain medical attention if symptoms such as coughing or difficulty breathing occur
Skin contact: Take off contaminated clothing immediately, flush skin with plenty of water and soap for at least fifteen minutes; seek medical advice for persistent irritation
Eye contact: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes, remove contact lenses if present and easy to do, continue rinsing, consult health professional if irritation persists
Ingestion: Rinse mouth, do not induce vomiting, give water to dilute if individual is conscious, contact medical service for further assessment
Personal protection for first-aiders: Use gloves, goggles, and chemical-resistant apron, ventilate area
Suitable extinguishing media: Water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide
Unsuitable media: Direct water jet, which can cause chemical splashing or spreading
Specific hazards: Decomposition in fire produces toxic fumes, including oxides of sulfur, nitrogen, and carbon
Protective equipment: Self-contained breathing apparatus, full protective clothing for fire conditions
Special procedures: Move containers from fire area if it can be done safely; use water coolant to prevent overheating of sealed drums
Personal precautions: Evacuate unnecessary personnel; avoid inhalation of vapor, mist, dust; avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing
Protective equipment: Gloves (nitrile), goggles, lab coat or chemical apron, face protection, suitable respirator if risk of aerosol formation
Environmental precautions: Prevent entry into drains, watercourses, or soil; contain spill with inert absorbent (sand, vermiculite), collect in labeled containers for disposal
Cleanup methods: Sweep up without generating dust, place in suitable chemical waste container, ventilate affected area; decontaminate surfaces with mild detergent
Handling: Use only in fume hood or well-ventilated space; wear appropriate PPE at all times; avoid sources of ignition; wash hands after handling; do not mix with strong oxidizers or acids unless process specifies process controls
Storage: Store in tightly closed container in cool, dry, and well-ventilated area; separate from incompatible materials such as bases, strong oxidizers, reactive metals
Conditions to avoid: Excessive heat, direct sunlight, uncontrolled humidity
Specific storage requirements: Secure shelving, secondary containment for bulk storage, chemical-resistant labeling
Engineering controls: Fume hood strongly recommended, local exhaust; splash guards for open operations
Respiratory protection: Approved air-purifying respirator with organic vapor/acid gas cartridge for dust, mist, or aerosol
Skin protection: Lab-grade disposable gloves (nitrile, PVC), long sleeves, laboratory coat
Eye protection: Impact-resistant chemical goggles; face shield for large-volume operations
Environmental controls: Regular monitoring of vapor, dust levels in laboratory environments; spill kit available in the workplace
Occupational exposure limits: No NIOSH or ACGIH exposure limits available; follow good hygiene and laboratory safety protocols
Appearance: Fine crystalline or powder, white to off-white in color
Odor: Little or no detectable odor
Melting point: Approximate decomposes on heating above 160°C
Boiling point: Not applicable
Flash point: Not flammable material; not readily combustible
Solubility: High solubility in water; slight solubility in methanol or ethanol; poorly soluble in non-polar solvents
Vapor pressure: Negligible at room temperature
pH (solution): Acidic; typically 2–3 in 1% solution
Viscosity: Not relevant for dry substance
Density: 1.4–1.6 g/cm3 estimated for solid
Chemical stability: Stable under recommended storage conditions, sensitive to moisture and temperature extremes
Possible hazardous reactions: Reacts with strong alkalies, oxidizing agents; produces toxic gases if decomposed thermally
Conditions to avoid: Elevated temperature, bulk moisture, strong mechanical impact
Incompatible materials: Strong bases or oxidizers, some metals such as sodium, potassium
Hazardous decomposition products: Sulfur oxides, ammonia, nitrogen oxides, carbon oxides
Acute toxicity: Data limited but structurally related components show mild to moderate acute oral toxicity; estimated LD50 oral rat > 500 mg/kg
Skin irritation: Contact produces redness and mild to moderate irritation
Eye irritation: Direct contact may cause serious eye irritation, pain, potential ocular injury
Respiratory irritation: Dust or aerosols may trigger sneezing, coughing, throat irritation
Chronic effects: No long-term human data; repeated exposure may induce dermatitis or respiratory tract irritation
Carcinogenicity, mutagenicity: Not identified as carcinogen or mutagen by major agencies
Aquatic toxicity: Expected moderate toxicity to aquatic organisms based on structure and functional groups; no specific LC50 or EC50 data; avoid uncontrolled release
Persistence and degradability: No definitive biodegradation assays; related acids often degrade by microbial action over several weeks
Bioaccumulation: Low potential due to negative charge at environmental pH and high water solubility
Mobility in soil: Rapid movement possible in moist soils, possible contamination risk if spilled in large quantities
Other adverse effects: Acidification of local water bodies possible in case of significant release
Waste treatment methods: All disposal should follow local, regional, and national regulations; do not dispose via drains or natural environment
Chemical waste: Place in sealed, labeled chemical waste container for professional disposal
Contaminated packaging: Rinse containers carefully, dispose as chemical waste; do not reuse without professional cleaning
Special precautions: Employ only licensed waste contractors; record-keeping for larger quantities
UN number: Not assigned for this compound
UN proper shipping name: Not regulated as hazardous material for transport in most countries, advisory checks needed
