3. Hazards identification
Hazard description Harmful if swallowed.
Contact with acids liberates toxic gas..
4. First-aid procedures
General Immediately move the patient from the source of exposure. General first aid.
Move to fresh air, keep the patient warm and at rest. If unconscious: Loosen

Antiboil Page 2 of 5
tight clothing, place in stable position on one side. Give artificial respiration if
breathing has stopped. Contact a physician.
Inhalation See "General". If any sign of loosing consciousness or discomfort, summon
physician.
Skin contact Immediately remove contaminated clothing and flush skin with copious
amounts of water. Summon physician if discomfort persists.
Eye contact Flush with large amounts of water (open eyelids) for at least 15 minutes.
Continue flushing until physician takes over. It is important that the flushing is
not discontinued too early.
Ingestion Do no induce vomitting! Rinse mouth with water and give 1 glass of water or
milk to drink. Get medical advice quikcly!!
5. Firefighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media Use extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding fire.
Improper extinguishing media The product is not flammable. Heating to decomposition will form toxic gas of
sulphur dioxide (SO2)
Personal protective equipment Generally: Evacuate all persons. Wear complete protective suit for fire
extinguishing. Use self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear
when the product is involved in fire.
Other Information The fire should be extinguished from a safe place.
Containers exposed to flames can be cooled with water. Move containers if
possible without any risk.
6. accidental release measures
Personal precautions Ensure good ventiation. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Use appropriate
protective equipment, see section 8
Environmental precautions Avoid emissions of considerable amount to water or drains. Inform appropriate
authorities if large amounts are involved.
Methods for cleaning Spillage may be pumped up or absorbed with dry, inert material such as
sand, earth etc. Place in suitable containers. Label containers with the name
and composition of the product. Dispose of in accordance with local
regulations for waste handling (see section 13).
7. handling and storage
Handling Ensure good ventiation. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Use appropriate
protective equipment: Neoprene gloves, gas mask with cartridge E (yellow) at
low vapour concentrations. High exposure: Use supplied air respirator. Wear
approved goggles or face shield if there is a possibility of splashes. Wear
protective clothing, preferably of neoprene material.
Storage Store in a dry, cool place in tightly closed containers.
Smaller plastic containers should be tightly closed while lagre containers of
stainless steel or plastic should be ventillated from the highest point. To be
stored in a cool place (temperature not below -10 ºC) and in a well
ventilated place. Stable if correct storage conditions.
8. exposure controls/personal protection
Exposure limit values
CAS no. EC no. Component name TWA (8h) ppm/mg/m3

Antiboil Page 3 of 5
All protective equipment should be labelled with CE.
Wash hands after working with the product.
Respiratory protection Wear gas mask with cartridge E (yellow) at low vapour concentrations. Check
that mask fits tightly and change filter regularly. High exposure: Use supplied
air respirator.
Hand protection Wear protective gloves of neoprene. Penetration time is not tested for this
material, change gloves often. The penetration time might vary with exposure
time, the type of work and the thickness of the glove material.
Eye protection Wear approved goggles or face shield if there is a possibility of splashes.
Skin protection (other than of the Wear protective clothing, preferably of neoprene material.
hands)

Other physical and chemical properties
Physical and chemical properties For Sodium Hydrogensulphite, a decrease in temperature for freezing point
will occur with an increase in concentration until saturation point (43% at
20ºC)
10. stability and reactivity
Materials to avoid Reacts with acids and forms a toxic gas - Suphur dioxide. May react
violently with nitrates, nitrites, sodium sulphide and other oxidizing agents.
Hazardous decomposition products Thermal decomposition (> 120 ºC) of evaporated solution, will form sulphur
dioxide, eventually also disodium oxide (Na2O).
11. Toxicological information
Toxicological Information:
Other toxicological data LD 50 Oral (Rat) > 2000 mg/kg , regards the product in physical state as
solid.
Other information regarding health hazards
Inhalation Upper respiratory irritation: Signs/ symptoms can include soreness of the nose
and throat, coughing and sneezing. High concentration of vapours may give
dyspnoea.
Skin contact May cause irritation, redness, smarting and also dermatitis (non-allergic
dermatitis).
Eye contact Severe irritation, smarting and pain. Prolonged contact may cause burns.
Ingestion Harmful if swallowed. Smarting in mouth and throath, abdominal pain,
discomfort and vomitting. Sulphur dioxide (toxic) will be formed when the
product reacts with gastric juice. Vomitting will cause risk of aspiration of the
product to lungs. This may lead to chemical pneumonia.
12. ecological information
