Class of danger | 2 |
Basic properties and hazards | |
Basic properties | The solid substance (crystallized powder or granules from white to light gray colours). Soluble in water. |
Explosion and fire | |
The risk to humans | Highly toxic. Causes inflammatory brain disease, changes in the liver and sclerosis of the spleen. When its dust gets inhaled there is a possibility of pneumonia and bronchial inflammation. When it gets into the digestive system it may potentially cause acute and chronic poisoning. With acute poisoning there is nausea, a burning sensation in the esophagus, cramps, paralysis and visual disturbances. |
Individual protection means | Insulating protective suit FIR 5 in a kit with an insulating mask At low concentration in the air (with an increase in MPC up to 100 times) — special uniform, autonomus protective individual kit with forced feeding of the purified air into the breathing zone (ROM cartridges), |
Necessary steps in case of emergency | |
General | Drive the carriage to a safe place. Isolate the zone of danger in the radius not less than 50m. (Do some adjustments to the distance after a complete check of the level of pollution.) Any outsiders should be asked to leave the zone of danger. When entering the zone of danger the people must wear protective clothing and equipment. Any injured person should receive first aid immediately. |
Leakage, spilling and placer | Report to the authorities. Do not touch the spilled substance. Make a soil wall around the spillage, collect it carefully into a container and seal it. Do not allow the dangerous substance to get into water supplies, basements, sewerage. |
In case of fire | It is |
Neutralization | Following the safety requirements collect the spillage (without using water) into metal containers, seal them. Isolate the place of spillage with sand, wash it with lots of water, surround it. Do not allow the substance to get into any water supplies or springs' waters. Cut off the surface layer of contaminated soil, collect it and remove for disposal. The place of the cut must be filled with a fresh layer of soil. |
First aid | Call the ambulance. Fresh air, rest, clean clothes, careful removal of the substance with a swab, generous washing of the eyes. Hospitalization! A solution of sulfacetamide 30%, tetracycline ointment must be used to treat the eyes. A bandage of sintomitsine emulsion must be applied on the skin. Inhalation of oil with ephedrine, novocaine, diphenhydramine. With the threat of pulmonary edema treat with prednisone up to 200 g, novocaine, diphenhydramine. If swallowed the stomach must be washed through a catheter. |
