Protected from light. Requirements for storage rooms and containers: No metal containers. Personal protective equipment should be selected suitably. c) Storage instructions: Store at dry and cool place. Keep far from fire and explosion substances. d) Instructions for use: Used in industrial textile bleaching, disinfection in water treatment and environmental sanitation. 4. MEASURES OF FIRST AID a) Measures relevant to the route of exposure: - Accident in case of eye exposure (splashed, touched on the eyes): Open eyelids and wash of gently with plenty of water for at least 10 minutes. Immediately take to eye specialist. - Accident in case of skin exposure (touched on skin): wash off with plenty of water. Wash with polyethylene glycol 400. Immediately remove contaminated clothing. - Accident in case of respiration exposure (breathing hazardous chemicals under form of vapor, gas): Fresh air. Take to doctor - Accident in case of ingestion exposure (eating, drinking, swallowing chemicals): let victim drink plenty of water (if necessary several liters), avoid vomiting (risk of perforation). Take to doctor and ask doctor to wash the stomach. b) Severe immediate symptoms and later effects: - Accident in case of eye exposure: Burns. Risk of blindness! - Accident in case of skinexposure: Burns. - Accident in case of respiration exposure: Irritations of the mucous membranes, coughing, and dyspnoea. - Accident in case of ingestion exposure: Burns in mouth, throat, oesophagus and gastrointestinal tract. Risk of perforation in the oesophagus and stomach. 5. HANDLING MEASURE UPON FIRE a) Appropriate means of firefighting Using all available means for extinguishing a fire Cool container with spray water from a save distance. Contain escaping vapours with water. b) Toxins produced during a fire Ambient fire may liberate hazardous vapours. The following may develop in event of fire: chlorine, hydrochloric acid. c) Means, protective clothing and warnings necessary for firefighting Suitable extinguishing media: In adaption to materials stored in the immediate neighbourhood. Do not stay in dangerous zone without suitable chemical protection clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus. 6. MEASURE TO PREVENT, RESPOND TO INCIDENTS a) Protective equipments and procedures for incident response Comply with all relevant local and international regulations. Avoid contact with spilled or released material. Isolate hazardous areas and do not allow those who are not assigned or not protected in this area. Stand in area to a wind driven and avoid the low areas. Prevent leakage if possible and do not cause hazard. Remove all sources of ignition in the surrounding area. Use absorbable materials (product absorption or fire fighting water level) to avoid environmental contamination. Prevent from spreading or entering drains, ditches or rivers by using sand, soil, or other appropriate barriers. Try to disperse the vapor or direct its flow to a safe location. Inform the local authorities if the spill is not controlled. b) Environmental warnings Leakage can cause pollution. Precautions should be taken to prevent from spreading or entering drains c) Sanitary measures and materials after the occurrence of incidents The remaining substance after a spill / leak is neutralized by diluted acid. The remaining corrosive substance is absorbed by soil, sand / other inert material. Then collect them in suitable containers for disposal. At the same time, ventilation is equipped to control the evaporation and dispersion of chemicals in the work area. 7. REQUIREMENTS FOR USE AND STORAGE a) Measures, conditions need to be applied when using, manipulating dangerous chemicals (ventilation, only use in a closed system, using electric devices to prevent explosion, internal transport, etc…): Must have adequate and appropriate personal protective equipment b) Measures, conditions need to be applied during storage (temperature, arrangement, restrictions on the source of fire, explosion, and substances need to be avoided in common storage…): - Store at dry and cool place. Keep far from fire and explosion substances. - Tightly closed. Protected from light. - May decompose forming gaseous products, especially when stored over long periods. Close containers in such a way to enable internal pressure to escape (e.g. excess pressure valve). - Do not put organic matters (straw, bark cells, sawdust, paper), oxidatives, flammables and explosives in the same stock with a chemical. - Requirements for storage rooms and containers: No metal containers. 8. IMPACT ON HUMAN AND REQUIREMENTS FOR INDIVIDUAL PROTECTIVE DEVICES a) Control parameters (eg, threshold for occupational exposure, threshold for biological indicators): No information b) Appropriate device control measures: Protective equipment should be selected specifically for the working place, depending on concentration and quantity of the hazardous substances handled. The resistance of the protective equipment to chemicals should be ascertained with the respective supplier. c) Personal Protective Equipment and Measures: - Means of individual protection as working: Eye protection: Use safety goggles. Body protection: Suitable protective clothing. Hand protection: Chemical-Resistant Gloves. Foot protection: Chemical resistant shoes or boots. - Immediately change contaminated clothing. Apply skin-protective barrier cream. Wash hands and face after working with substance. 9. CHEMICAL-PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS Physical state: Liquid Boil point (0C): No information Color: Yellow Melting point (0C): No information Particular odour: Characteristic Burning point (0C) (Flash point) by determination method: No information Vapor pressure (mm Hg) at standard Self-ignition temperature (0C): No information temperature, pressure: No information Gas proportion (air = 1) at standard Above limit of concentration of fire, explosion (% of temperature, pressure: No information mixture with air): No information Solubility in water: Solubility in water (20 Below limit of concentration of fire, explosion (% of °C) mixture with air): No information pH value (at 20 °C): 12 - 13 Vapor percentage: No information Density (kg/m3): No information Other property if any: No information 10. STABILITY AND OPERATION ABILITY OF CHEMICALS a) Response capability Reacts with incompatible materials. b) Stability (heat resistance, sensitivity to the effects of friction, shock, etc.): Easily decomposed under the effect of light and temperature, the higher the temperature the faster the decomposition rate. c) Dangerous reactions (corrosion, fire, explosion…): Skin corrosion, reaction with acids, metals and metal salts. Conditions should be avoided (Ex electrostatic, vibration, shaking ...) Light and heat source e) Incompatible materials: Acids, metals and metal salts. f) Decomposition reaction and products of the decomposition reaction: When heated will be decomposed to produce sodium chlorate and sodium chloride. 11.
