Impurities: Trace organic and inorganic contaminants possible from synthesis, not expected to be significant
Other Ingredients: None known, single active substance
Inhalation: Move to fresh air as quickly as possible. If symptoms like coughing or difficulty breathing develop, seek medical attention
Skin Contact: Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing. If irritation develops or persists, consult a healthcare provider
Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do; keep rinsing. Get medical help if discomfort continues
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water, do not induce vomiting. If the person feels unwell, get instant medical advice
Critical Acute Symptoms: Seek medical care if respiratory symptoms, severe skin/eye irritation occur after exposure
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide
Unsuitable Media: Do not use strong water jets because splashing may occur
Specific Hazards: Product can burn, releasing toxic fumes such as carbon oxides and calcium oxides
Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus, flame-resistant clothing, and gloves
Special Procedures: Cool containers exposed to fire with water spray; move away from area if safe to do so
Personal Precautions: Avoid formation of dust, use protective gloves, safety goggles, lab coats, and masks
Environmental Precautions: Prevent product from entering drains, surface water, and soil
Cleanup Methods: Collect spill using a method that minimizes dust formation (damp cloth or HEPA vacuum), place in a suitable container for disposal, ventilate area
Decontamination: Clean affected surfaces thoroughly with soap and water after removal of material
Emergency Procedures: Evacuate unnecessary people from the spill area; notify specialists if significant quantity released
Safe Handling Advice: Work in a chemical fume hood or well-ventilated area, wear personal protective equipment, avoid direct contact, open containers carefully
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands after handling, remove contaminated clothing before breaks, avoid eating/drinking/smoking near the substance
Storage Conditions: Store tightly closed, away from incompatible substances, in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Typical storage temperatures range from 2–8°C (refrigerator), protect from light
Incompatible Materials: Strong acids, strong oxidizers; risk of reaction exists
Storage Container Materials: Use original containers or chemically resistant bottles, labeled clearly with hazard and content information
Exposure Limits: No established occupational exposure limit; minimize exposure as a precaution
Engineering Controls: Laboratory fume hood, local exhaust ventilation
Personal Protective Equipment: Lab coat, gloves (nitrile or latex), chemical splash goggles, respiratory protection if risk of dust or aerosol formation
Work Practices: Avoid dust generation and inhalation, keep work area clean, label all containers and wastes
Monitoring Procedures: Regular checks for airborne concentration (if used in bulk); area monitoring for spills or leaks after use
Appearance: Off-white to pale yellow powder or solid
Odor: No significant odor under normal lab handling
