EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: white solid.
Caution! May cause respiratory and digestive tract
irritation. May cause eye and skin irritation. Prolonged exposure may
cause pulmonary edema. This substance has caused adverse reproductive
and fetal effects in animals. Air sensitive. Light sensitive.
Moisture sensitive.
Target Organs: None.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation.
Ingestion:
Causes gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea. Chronic ingestion of iodides during pregnancy has resulted
in fetal death, severe goiter, and cretinoid appearance of the
newborn.
Inhalation:
May cause respiratory tract irritation.
Chronic:
Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause adverse reproductive
effects. Chronic exposure can lead to iodism characterized by
salivation, nasal discharge, sneezing, conjunctivitis, fever,
laryngitis, bronchitis, stomatitis, and skin rashes. Adverse
reproductive effects have been reported in animals.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
|
Eyes:
Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally
lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin:
Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while
removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if
irritation develops or persists. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4
cupfuls of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. Get medical aid.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not
breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical aid if cough or other symptoms appear.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically.
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
|
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases
may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Use
extinguishing media appropriate to the surrounding fire. Substance is
noncombustible.
Extinguishing Media:
Substance is noncombustible; use agent most appropriate to
extinguish surrounding fire. Do NOT get water inside containers.

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
|
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal
container. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the
Protective Equipment section. Avoid generating dusty conditions.
Provide ventilation. Place under an inert atmosphere. Do not get
water inside containers.
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
|
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid
contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid ingestion and
inhalation. Store protected from light. Handle under an inert
atmosphere. Store protected from air. Do not allow contact with
water. Keep from contact with moist air and steam.
Storage:
Store in a cool place in the original container and protect from
sunlight. Do not store in direct sunlight. Store in a tightly closed
container. Do not expose to air. Store protected from moisture.
Store protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection
|
Engineering Controls:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate
ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low.
