Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide; do not use dry combustibles for extinguishing
Specific Hazards: Strong oxidizer, increases fire intensity, decomposes at high temperatures releasing toxic iodine vapors, sodium oxides
Protective Equipment: Full protective gear including self-contained breathing apparatus; stay upwind and avoid breathing fumes
Firefighting Instructions: Isolate area, move containers from fire area if possible without risk, cool with water spray
Personal Precautions: Evacuate non-essential personnel, wear dust mask or respirator, chemical goggles, gloves, and protective suit
Environmental Precautions: Prevent spillage from reaching drains, sewers, or waterways, contain with sand or earth
Clean-Up Procedures: Scoop up and collect spilled material in a suitable, clearly labeled container for disposal, wash surface with plenty of water, ventilate the area well, avoid generating dust
Handling: Work in a fume hood or well-ventilated space, avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing, keep container tightly closed when not in use, keep away from combustible materials and reducing agents
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location, separate from flammable or organic materials, acids, and bases, ensure packaging is tightly sealed and clearly labeled, check regularly for leaks or deterioration, avoid exposure to moisture and heat
Exposure Limits: No specific OSHA or ACGIH exposure limits; minimize dust and vapor exposure as low as reasonably achievable
Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation, closed system handling preferred
