Signal Word: None required for typical laboratory concentrations
Label Elements: May irritate eyes; avoid direct exposure; handle with care
Hazard Pictograms: None required for most standard solutions; refer to supplier's most current labeling
Chemical Name: Sodium Acetate
CAS Number: 127-09-3
Concentration: Typically 1000 mg/L (or as specified by prepared standard), water-based solution
Other Ingredients: Deionized Water (CAS 7732-18-5), trace contaminants well below reportable thresholds
Impurities: Free from acetic acid excess and secondary salts at trace levels; purity defined by certificate of analysis supplied by manufacturer
Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for 15 minutes, check for persistent irritation, seek medical help if discomfort remains
Skin Contact: Wash area with soap and water, remove contaminated clothing, consult a physician if rash or irritation develops
Inhalation: Move person to fresh air, rest in comfortable position, consult medical help if breathing remains difficult
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water, do not induce vomiting, drink water if conscious, seek medical attention if feeling unwell
Symptoms of Exposure: Possible mild discomfort, redness or irritation to affected area, unlikely severe outcome for laboratory concentrations
Flammability: Product is non-flammable as an aqueous solution
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical, or foam for surrounding fire; product does not fuel combustion
Hazardous Combustion Products: May release carbon oxides (CO, CO₂), sodium oxides under intense heat
Special Protective Equipment: Firefighters wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing to avoid smoke or vapors
Firefighting Procedures: Cool exposed containers with water spray, keep upwind, avoid inhaling vapors or decomposition gases
Personal Precautions: Use appropriate protective equipment including gloves and eye protection
Environmental Precautions: Prevent large releases from reaching drains, surface water, or soil where possible
Spill Cleanup Methods: Absorb small spills with inert material (e.g. paper towel, absorbent pad), collect residue in suitable container
Decontamination: Wash spill site thoroughly with water after material pickup, ventilate area to remove vapors
Waste Disposal: See disposal considerations; minimize environmental impact by containing release
Handling: Wear lab coat, chemical-resistant gloves, and splash-proof goggles, avoid inhaling mist or vapors, use in well-ventilated area
Hygiene Considerations: Wash hands after handling, avoid eating, drinking, or smoking near material
Safe Storage Conditions: Store in original, tightly sealed container at recommended temperature (typically room temperature or as specified), protect from direct sunlight or freezing
Incompatibles: Strong acids, oxidizing agents, do not store with reactive chemicals
Shelf Life: Refer to manufacturer’s shelf life; check for signs of contamination or precipitate before use
Occupational Exposure Limits: No exposure limit established for sodium acetate standard solution; general lab chemical hygiene applies
Engineering Controls: Use in chemical fume hood or well-ventilated space
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile recommended), safety goggles, lab coat, optional face shield if splash risk exists
Respiratory Protection: Not usually required for small-scale lab use; use particulate mask if mist formation expected
Monitoring Procedures: Follow facility chemical hygiene plan; regular safety checks recommended
Appearance: Clear, colorless aqueous solution
Odor: Faint vinegar-like (acetate), usually not strong
pH: Typically alkaline (pH 8–9 for sodium acetate solution, verify with label)
Melting/Freezing Point: Close to water; below 0°C may freeze
Boiling Point: Close to water; typically 100°C
Solubility: Fully miscible with water
Density: Approximately 1.0 g/cm³ at 20°C
Evaporation Rate: Comparable with water
Flash Point: Not applicable to aqueous solutions
Other Properties: Stable light sodium salt solution, no significant vapor pressure under normal conditions
Chemical Stability: Stable under recommended storage and handling conditions
Reactivity: Reacts with strong acids to give acetic acid and sodium salts; avoid strong oxidizers
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Carbon oxides (CO, CO₂) and sodium oxides in extreme heat
Polymerization: Will not undergo hazardous polymerization
Other Risks: Trace precipitation or crystallization can occur if evaporated or improperly stored
Likely Routes of Exposure: Skin and eye contact, inhalation of mist, accidental ingestion
Acute Toxicity: Not acutely toxic at working concentrations, LD₅₀ for sodium acetate oral rat > 3,000 mg/kg
Chronic Effects: No known chronic toxic risks at standard laboratory handling levels
Irritation: Mild skin and eye irritation possible, not known to cause sensitization
Carcinogenicity: Not listed as carcinogen by IARC, NTP, OSHA
Mutagenicity and Reproductive Effects: Not expected at laboratory levels, not listed in major databases
Aquatic Toxicity: Not expected to pose significant acute hazard to aquatic organisms at laboratory dilution
Persistence and Degradability: Sodium acetate biodegrades in environment, breaks down to naturally occurring elements
Bioaccumulation Potential: Potential for bioaccumulation low as material is highly soluble and biologically degradable
Mobility in Soil: Moves readily in aqueous phase, dilution reduces possible impact
Other Adverse Effects: At higher concentrations could alter water chemistry and impact sensitive aquatic organisms; unlikely at standard concentrations
Disposal Methods: Dispose of contents in accordance with local, state, and federal guidelines, preferably as non-hazardous laboratory waste
Container Disposal: Rinse empty containers, dispose as laboratory plastic/glass recycling if uncontaminated
Special Precautions: Avoid disposal down storm drains or where exposure to high concentrations in environment may result
Waste Code: Not regulated; consult local authority for guidance as needed
Additional Information: Do not reuse container, eliminate to landfill only when recycling unavailable
UN Number: Not regulated for transport; typical laboratory standards not classified as dangerous goods
Transport Hazard Class: None
