Danger Summery: Danger Type:N/A Danger of Combustion Explosion:When the product powder is mixed with air or oxidation medium, explosive blend will form, thus preventing the creation of powder. Contact Approach:inhalation, eyes contact, taking orally by accident Acute health effect:N/A Inhalation:not harmful by small amount,but the concentration in air should be controlled under 10mg/m3 MSDS №:00101 evision Date:02-20-2002 Page:2 of 5 Eyes contact:slight irritation Skin contact:normally no sensitivity Taking orally by accident:not fatal by small amount 4. First Aid Inhalation:keep away from contact and transfer to fresh air environment. If dyspnea continues, turn to doctors. Skin contact:clean the skin with soap and clean water and daub some skin-care balm. If irritation is severe, turn to doctors. Eyes contact:use clean water to rinse 15 minutes. If irritation is severe, turn to doctors. Taking orally by accident:drink 3-4 cups of water and milk, and you may press the throat to vomit. However, if the patient is unconscious, turn to the hospital at once and don’t give him anything for oral taking. Instruction for doctors: normally not fatal, but the possibility of chronic poisoning is unknown. 5. Fire Fighting Flash point:297℃ Self-ignition Point:>350℃ Special Danger:When the product powder is mixed with air or oxidation medium, explosive blend will form, thus preventing the creation of powder and fire source. All the devices and containers contacting the product should take static electricity earthing. Steps for putting out fire:cut in from the uptake, and avoid inhaling smoke. Wear gas mask or self-help inspirator in case of heavy smoke. Materials for putting out fire: chemical dry powder, phosphor dioxide, foam, spray. Harmful thermo decomposition product: carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, aromatics, low-molecular hydrocarbon. 6. Leakage Emergency Sweep the materials or use vacuum cleaning, and put them in special recycling container, wash the floor with clean water. 7. Operation treatment and Storage Operation Treatment: refer to part 8 for details. Avoid inhaling the product and long-term touch with viscid film and damaged part of the skin. Since now we can’t provide testing data of the harmfulness, MSDS №:00101 evision Date:02-20-2002 Page:3 of 5 there is no guarantee for safety. Storage:dry and cool. 8. Contact control/Personal protection Limit value of Professional contact in workplace China:no standard Engineering Control:Strengthen ventilation and ensure that the concentration in air should be controlled below 10mg/m3 Eyes protection: wear chemical safety glass and mask。 Skin protection: wear chemical safety clothes and glove. Inhaling protection:wear dustproof respirator or self-help inspirator in case of powder After work: take a shower before eating, drinking and smoking. 9. Physical/Chemical properties Appearance: white crystalline powder Melting Point:110~125℃ Specific Gravity:1.1~1.2(H2O=1) Stacking Density:0.4~0.6g/cm3 Taste and Odor:tasteless and odorless(with remaining odor of alcohols occasionally) TG:>350℃(5%) Kindling Point:>410℃ Boiling Point:not applicable Vaporing Rate :not applicable Steam Pressure:1×10-12mmHg(20℃) PH:5.89(1% water suspension) Solubility: Solubility in different solvents Solvent Solubility (g/100g solvent,20℃) Solvent Solubility (g/100g solvent,20℃) Chloroform 100% Methanol 0.9% Benzene 100% Ethanol 1.8% Acetone 47% n-hexane 0.3% Ethyl acetate 46% Cyclohexane 0.45% MSDS №:00101 evision Date:02-20-2002 Page:4 of 5 Corn oil 0.2% Water 0.03% 10. Stability and reactivity Stability:with stable chemical properties, there won’t be sudden pressure release. Conditions avoided:heat, moisture, sparkle and any fire source. Substances avoided:strong acid and strong oxidant Dangerous polymerization:none Harmful thermo decomposition product:carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, aromatics, low-molecular hydrocarbon. 11. Toxicology References LD50≥5000mg/Kg (for big mice)。The product is slightly toxic. Feed the big mice with daily dosage of 100mg/Kg (body weight) for two years, and no oncostatin is founded, nor the effect on offspring of the tested animals. 12. Environment and Ecology References The product is low toxic for water creatures. The long-term effect of the material on environment is not evaluated. 13. Disposal The product is not hazard waste and doesn’t harm people. But the long-term effect of the material on environment is not evaluated. Therefore, we suggest the disposal by incinerating in combustion furnace for chemical waste or according to the local regulations. 14. Transport Information The product doesn’t belong to dangerous articles, and can be transported as normal chemicals. Packaging: paper boxes Attention:prevent moisture, drenching, and powder leakage caused by package damage. 15. Rules and Regulations Rules and regulations, like《Safety Administration Statute of Dangerous Chemicals》 、 《Regulations on Safety use of Chemicals in workplace》, set regulations on safe using, producing, storing, transporting and loading and uploading the dangerous chemicals. The classification and sign of common dangerous MSDS №:00101 evision Date:02-20-2002 Page:5 of 5 chemicals (GB13690-92) doesn’t involve the product, therefore, the product doesn’t belong to dangerous articles. 16. Other Information We here provide the material safety information to our best knowledge. Any accident (like taking orally by accident or using the product for other purposes), however, may happen since the treatment and use are not under our control. Therefore, we won’t assume any responsibility for the accident. The user should obey the related national and local rules and regulations, and be responsible for any consequence.
