| Other hazard | No data available |
| General advice | Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance. Move out of dangerous area. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If you feel unwell, seek medical advice (show the label if possible). In case of contact with clothing: Remove clothing immediately. Submerge in water to prevent the possibility of a fire. Wash shoes with wate |
| Eye Contact | Immediately rinse with water for at least 30 minutes while holding the eyelids wide open. Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. Continue rinsing eyes during transport to hospital |
| Swallowed | Do NOT induce vomiting. Seek medical attention immediately. |
| Skin Contact | Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Flush skin with soap and plenty of water. Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician |
| Inhalation | Using proper respiratory protection, immediately move the exposed person to fresh air. Keep at rest and in a position comfortable for breathing. Seek medical attention immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration |
| Ingestion | No data available |
| Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delaye | No data available |
| Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed | If you feel unwell, seek medical advice (show label where possible). |
| Flammability | No data available |
| Suitable extinguishing media | Water. Form curtains of water to absorb the gases that are generated in the combustion. Keep containers and deposits cool, spraying them with water if exposed to the fire. If feasible, remove the combustible agent. Remove the containers from the area of fire, if this does not entail risk. |
| Unsuitable extinguishing media | CO2 powder (powdered dry ice), foam (organic products) |
|
Hazardous combustion products |
Chlorine, oxygen, and hydrochloric acid. |
| Protective Equipment | No data available |
| Specific Hazard Arising from the Chemical | This product is not flammable or explosive. If it reaches 175 degrees C it decomposes to chlorine and chlorate. Subsequent decomposition of the chlorate produces oxygen which may give rise to the explosion or bursting of closed containers. |
| Advice for firefighters | Self contained breathing equipment. Individual protective equipment (gloves and suitable clothing). Seek location with your back against the wind |
| Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures | Avoid contact with the eyes, skin and clothing. Do not act without appropriate protective equipment. |
| Spillage | No data available |
| Personal Protection | No data available |
| Enviromental Precaution | Recover the whole product that is possible in a clean dry plastic or metallic container. Following product recovery, flush area with water. If spill could potentially enter any waterway, including intermittent dry creeks, contact the U.S. COAST GUARD NATIONAL RESPONSE CENTER at 800-424-8802. In case of accident or road spill notify CHEMTREC at 800-424-9300 (in USA) or (international code) + 1-703-527-3887. |

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning |
Absorb any spillage using sand, earth or clay. Wash the area with plenty of water. Take the absorbent products to a safe storage for treatment by expert personnel in handling the product or an authorized waste handler. |
| Reference to other sections | See heading 8, Exposure Controls and Personal Protection. |
| Advice for safe handling | Avoid the formation of sparks. Avoid mixing with incompatible products (acids, acid materials, combustible materials, oils, greases, etc.). Avoid dust formation. |
| Hygiene measures | Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety procedures. Always wash your hands immediately after handling this product, and once again before leaving the workplace. Provide good ventilation in process area to prevent formation of vapor. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Do not eat, drink or smoke in the areas where product is used |
| Technical measures | Observe all regulations and local requirements regarding storage of containers |
| Storage conditions | Store in a dry, cool and well ventilated place. Keep containers closed when not in use. Store away from heat sources, ignition sources, direct sunlight, incompatible materials, combustible materials.. Storage areas should be periodically checked for corrosion and integrity. Usable materials for containers are Polyester, PVC, stainless steel, or coated steel |
| Incompatible materials | Wood, rubber, aluminum, copper and alloys |
| Enviornmenta exposure control | Emergency eye wash fountains and safety showers should be available in the immediate vicinity of any potential exposure. Avoid the emission of dust to the atmosphere. |
| Engineering Control | Use adequate ventilation to keep a low concentration in air. |
| Personal Protective Equipment | Avoid all unnecessary exposure. In the event of emission of sodium chlorite powder, use mas with a dust filter (EN 143 P2 or P3). In the event of formation of chlorine dioxide use breathing protection mask with filter for inorganic gases (Chlorine) for low concentrations, for higher concentrations use self contained breathing equipmen |
| Protective clothing | Wear suitable protective clothingImpermeable protective gloves. Nitrile rubber, PVC (do not use leather or rubber) |
