Ingredient CAS No Percent Hazardous
-------------------------------------- ------------ ------------
Sulfamic Acid 5329-14-6 90 - 100% Yes
Inhalation: Extremely destructive to tissues of the mucous membranes and
upper respiratory tract. Symptoms may include burning sensation, coughing,
wheezing, laryngitis, shortness of breath, headache, nausea and vomiting. May
cause pulmonary edema, a medical emergency. Pulmonary edema may be delayed up to
48 hours.
Ingestion: Corrosive. Swallowing can cause severe burns of the mouth,
throat, and stomach, leading to death. Can cause sore throat, vomiting,
diarrhea.
Skin Contact: Corrosive. Symptoms of redness, pain, and severe burn can
occur.
Eye Contact: Corrosive. Can cause blurred vision, redness, pain, severe
tissue burns and eye damage.
Chronic Exposure: No information found.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions: No information found.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing,
give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical
attention immediately.
Ingestion: If swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Give large quantities of
water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical
attention immediately.
Skin Contact: Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention
immediately. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse.
Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes, lifting lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention
immediately.
Note to Physician: For severe exposures, monitor for delayed onset of
pulmonary edema.
Fire: Not considered to be a fire hazard.
Explosion: Not considered to be an explosion hazard.
Fire Extinguishing Media: Use any means suitable for extinguishing
surrounding fire.
Special Information: In the event of a fire, wear full protective
clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full
facepiece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode.
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Keep unnecessary and unprotected people away from area of spill. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8.
Keep in a tightly closed container. Protect from physical damage. Store in a cool, dry, ventilated area away from sources of heat, moisture and incompatibilities. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
Airborne Exposure Limits: None established.
Ventilation System: A system of local and/or general exhaust is
recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust
ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the
contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work
area. Please refer to the ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of
Recommended Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): For conditions of use where
exposure to the dust or mist is apparent, a half-face dust/mist respirator may
be worn. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known,
use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING:
Air-purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient
atmospheres.
Skin Protection: Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots,
gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls as needed to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where
dusting or splashing of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and
quick-drench facilities in work area.
Appearance: White to colorless crystals.
Odor: Odorless.
Solubility: Soluble in water.
Density: 2.1
pH: 1.18 (1% solution @ 25C (77F))
% Volatiles by volume @ 21C (70F): 0
Boiling Point: Decomposes.
Melting Point: 205C (401F)
Vapor Density (Air=1): 3.3
Vapor Pressure (mm Hg): No information found.
Evaporation Rate (BuAc=1): No information found.
Stability: Stable under ordinary conditions of use
and storage. Solutions are acidic. In water solution slowly hydrolyzes to form
ammonium sulfate and bisulfate.
Hazardous Decomposition Products: May emit ammonia, oxides of sulfur,
oxides of nitrogen, and oxides of carbon.
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur.
Incompatibilities: Strong oxidizers, nitric acid, chlorine. Solutions are
strong acids and react violently with bases.
Conditions to Avoid: Dusting and incompatibles.
