| TYPES OF HAZARD / EXPOSURE |
ACUTE HAZARDS / SYMPTOMS | PREVENTION | FIRST AID / FIRE FIGHTING |
| FIRE | Not combustible but enhances combustion of other substances. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. | NO contact with flammable substances. | NO water. In case of fire in the surroundings: powder, carbon dioxide, dry sand. |
| EXPLOSION | In case of fire: cool drums, etc., by spraying with water but avoid contact of the substance with water. | ||
| EXPOSURE | AVOID ALL CONTACT! | IN ALL CASES CONSULT A DOCTOR! | |
| Inhalation | Sore throat. Cough. Burning sensation. Shortness of breath. Laboured breathing. Severe swelling of the throat. Symptoms may be delayed (see Notes). | Ventilation, local exhaust, or breathing protection. | Fresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer for medical attention. |
| Skin | Redness. Serious skin burns. Pain. | Protective gloves. Protective clothing. | Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. Refer for medical attention. |
| Eyes | Redness. Pain. Severe deep burns. | Face shield or eye protection in combination with breathing protection. | First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor. |
| Ingestion | Sore throat. Burning sensation. Nausea. Vomiting. Abdominal cramps. Shock or collapse. | Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Wash hands before eating. | Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer for medical attention. |
| SPILLAGE DISPOSAL | PACKAGING & LABELLING | Evacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Personal protection: complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT absorb in saw-dust or other combustible absorbents. NEVER direct water jet on liquid. Collect leaking liquid in sealable plastic containers. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent and remove to safe place. | C Symbol R: 20-35 S: (1/2-)26-45 UN Hazard Class: 8 UN Pack Group: I |
Unbreakable packaging; put breakable packaging into closed unbreakable container. Do not transport with food and feedstuffs. |
| EMERGENCY RESPONSE | SAFE STORAGE | Transport Emergency Card: TEC (R)-80GC1-I | Dry. Well closed. Separated from food and feedstuffs. See Chemical Dangers. |
| IMPORTANT DATA | Physical State; Appearance COLOURLESS LIQUID, WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR. Chemical dangers Occupational exposure limits |
Routes of exposure The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation and by ingestion. Inhalation risk Effects of short-term exposure |
| PHYSICAL PROPERTIES | ENVIRONMENTAL DATA | Boiling point: 163°C Melting point: -89°C Relative density (water = 1): 1.7 Solubility in water: reaction Vapour pressure, kPa at 25°C: 0.33 Relative vapour density (air = 1): 3.4 |
This substance may be hazardous in the environment; special attention should be given to aquatic organisms. |
| NOTES | The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation is therefore essential. Occupational exposures to mists and vapours from sulfuric acid are carcinogenic to humans. NEVER pour water into this substance; when dissolving or diluting always add it slowly to the water. |
