EXPLOSION

EXPOSURE		AVOID ALL CONTACT!
Inhalation		Local exhaust.	Fresh air, rest.
Skin		Protective gloves. Protective clothing.	Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.
Eyes	Redness.	Safety goggles.	First rinse with plenty of water (remove contact lenses if easily possible).
Ingestion		Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work.	Rinse mouth.

IMPORTANT DATA
Physical State; Appearance BROWN CRYSTALLINE POWDER, WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR. Physical dangers The vapour is heavier than air. Chemical dangers The substance decomposes on heating or on burning producing toxic and corrosive fumes including hydrogen chloride and nitrogen oxides. Reacts with oxidants. Occupational exposure limits TLV not established. MAK not established.	Routes of exposure The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation and by ingestion. Inhalation risk A nuisance-causing concentration of airborne particles can be reached quickly when dispersed, especially if powdered Effects of long-term or repeated exposure Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization.
