SECTION IV - FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA<br />
FLASHPOINT (METHOD USED): Not Applicable<br />
FLAMMABLE LIMITS:<br />
Not Applicable<br />
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: CO2, dry chemical, Water /fog spray, Standard Foam<br />
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Wear full protective clothing and selfcontained<br />
breathing apparatus. Water solution of sulfamic acid is strongly<br />
acidic. Move containers from fire area if possible. Cool containers exposed<br />
to flames with water from side until well after fire is out.<br />
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: May release sulfur dioxide, sulfur<br />
trioxide, and ammonia gas if involved in fire<br />
SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA<br />
THRESHOLD LIMIT VALUE: To the best of our knowledge, the chemical, physical,<br />
and toxicological properties have not been thoroughly investigated.<br />
ACUTE EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE: Harmful if swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed<br />
through skin. Material is extremely destructive to tissue of the mucus<br />
membranes and upper respiratory tract, eyes and skin. Inhalation may be fatal<br />
as a result of spasm, inflammation and edema of the larynx and bronchi,<br />
chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema. Corrosive. Causes burns.<br />
SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE MAY INCLUDE: Burning sensation, coughing, wheezing,<br />
laryngitis, shortness of breath, headache, nausea and vomiting.<br />
IN CASE OF EXPOSURE: EYES AND SKIN: Rinse immediately with plenty of water.<br />
Remove contaminated clothing, and shoes immediately. Insure adequate flushing<br />
of the eyes by separating the eyelids with fingers. If INHALED, remove to
fresh air. If not breathing give artificial respiration. If breathing is<br />
difficult give oxygen.<br />
If SWALLOWED, washout mouth with water proved person is conscious. Provided<br />
the patient is conscious the acid can be diluted immediately by drinking<br />
water or milk. If vomiting persists, administer fluids repeatedly.<br />
SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACCIDENTAL EXPOSURE TO THIS<br />
PRODUCT.<br />
SECTION VI - REACTIVITY DATA<br />
STABILITY: Stable at room temperature. At elevated temperatures, concentrate<br />
sulfamic aqueous solution hydrolyzed rapidly generate heat and steam.<br />
INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID): Chlorine, potassium chlorate, nitric<br />
acid, metal sulfides, nitrates and nitrites, bases and bromine gas.<br />
Strong oxidizing agents and strong bases.<br />
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Thermal decomposition products may include<br />
toxic and corrosive fumes of ammonia, and toxic oxides of nitrogen and sulfur.<br />
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur under normal temperatures and<br />
pressures.<br />
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: May accumulate in tanks and hopper cars. May ignite<br />
combustibles wood, paper, oil, etc.)<br />
SECTION VII - SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES<br />
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Evacuate area.<br />
Stop leak if it can be done without risk. Wear self-contained breathing<br />
apparatus, rubber boots, and heavy rubber gloves. Cover with dry lime or soda<br />
ash, pick up, keep in a closed container and hold for waste disposal.<br />
Ventilate area and wash spill site after material pickup is complete.<br />
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Dissolve or mix the material with a combustible<br />
solvent and burn in a chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner and<br />
scrubber. Follow all local, state, and federal regulations.<br />
SECTION VIII - SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION<br />
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (SPECIFY TYPE): Use NIOSH approved respiratory<br />
protection for dust and fumes.<br />
VENTILATION: Provide local exhaust or general dilution ventilation system.<br />
PROTECTIVE GLOVES: Impervious to prevent skin contact.<br />
EYE PROTECTION: Chemical splash goggles or face shield.<br />
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Protective (impervious) clothing and equipment<br />
to prevent any possible skin contact.<br />
SECTION IX - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS<br />
