• If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting.
• If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain open airway and
prevent aspiration.
EYE
■ If this product comes in contact with the eyes:
• Immediately hold eyelids apart and flush the eye continuously with running water.
• Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting
the upper and lower lids.
• Continue flushing until advised to stop by the Poisons Information Centre or a doctor, or for at least 15 minutes.
• Transport to hospital or doctor without delay.
SKIN
■ If skin or hair contact occurs:
• Immediately flush body and clothes with large amounts of water, using safety shower if available.
• Quickly remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear.
• Wash skin and hair with running water. Continue flushing with water until advised to stop by the Poisons Information Centre.
• Transport to hospital, or doctor.
INHALED

Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
• Corrosive substances may cause lung damage (e.g. lung oedema, fluid in the lungs).
• As this reaction may be delayed up to 24 hours after exposure, affected individuals need complete rest (preferably in semirecumbent posture) and must be kept under medical observation even if no symptoms are (yet) manifested.
• Before any such manifestation, the administration of a spray containing a dexamethasone derivative or beclomethasone derivative
may be considered.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN
■ Excellent warning properties force rapid escape of personnel from chlorine vapour thus most inhalations are mild to moderate.
If escape is not possible, exposure to high concentrations for a very short time can result in dyspnea, haemophysis and cyanosis
with later complications being tracheobroncho-pneumonitis and pulmonary oedema.
for corrosives:
-------------------------------------------------------------BASIC TREATMENT
-------------------------------------------------------------• Establish a patent airway with suction where necessary.
• Watch for signs of respiratory insufficiency and assist ventilation as necessary.
• Administer oxygen by non-rebreather mask at 10 to 15 l/min.
• Monitor and treat, where necessary, for pulmonary oedema .
For acute or repeated exposures to hypochlorite solutions:
• Release of small amounts of hypochlorous acid and acid gases from the stomach following ingestion, is usually too low to cause
damage but may be irritating to mucous membranes. Buffering with antacid may be helpful if discomfort is evident.
• Evaluate as potential caustic exposure.
• Decontaminate skin and eyes with copious saline irrigation. Check exposed eyes for corneal abrasions with fluorescein staining.
• Emesis or lavage and catharsis may be indicated for mild caustic exposure.
Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is indicated. The symptoms of lung oedema often do not manifest
until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort.
Section 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
• Water spray or fog.
• Foam.
• Dry chemical powder.
• BCF (where regulations permit).
FIRE FIGHTING
• Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard.
• Wear full body protective clothing with breathing apparatus.
• Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water course.
• Use fire fighting procedures suitable for surrounding area.
FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD
• Non combustible.
• Not considered a significant fire risk, however containers may burn.
Decomposition may produce toxic fumes of: hydrogen chloride, metal oxides.
May emit corrosive fumes.
FIRE INCOMPATIBILITY
■ None known.

Section 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
MINOR SPILLS
• Remove all ignition sources.
• Clean up all spills immediately.
• Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
• Control personal contact by using protective equipment.
• Drains for storage or use areas should have retention basins for pH adjustments and dilution of spills before discharge or
disposal of material.
• Check regularly for spills and leaks.
Neutralise with sodium metabisulfite or sodium thiosulfate.
MAJOR SPILLS
• Clear area of personnel and move upwind.
• Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard.
• Wear full body protective clothing with breathing apparatus.
• Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water course.
Neutralise with sodium metabisulfite or sodium thiosulfate.
Personal Protective Equipment advice is contained in Section 8 of the MSDS.
Section 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
PROCEDURE FOR HANDLING
• Avoid all personal contact, including inhalation.
• Wear protective clothing when risk of exposure occurs.
• Use in a well-ventilated area.
• WARNING: To avoid violent reaction, ALWAYS add material to water and NEVER water to material.
SUITABLE CONTAINER
■ Liquid inorganic hypochlorites shall not to be transported in unlined metal drums. Inner packagings shall be fitted with vented
closures and plastics drums and carboys shall have vented closures or be performance tested to a minimum of 250 kPa.
• Glass container is suitable for laboratory quantities.
• Lined metal can, lined metal pail/ can.
• Plastic pail.
• Polyliner drum.
• Packing as recommended by manufacturer.
For low viscosity materials
• Drums and jerricans must be of the non-removable head type.
• Where a can is to be used as an inner package, the can must have a screwed enclosure. <</>.
STORAGE INCOMPATIBILITY
• Contact with acids produces toxic fumes.
• Metals and their oxides or salts may react violently with chlorine trifluoride and bromine trifluoride.
• These trifluorides are hypergolic oxidisers. They ignites on contact (without external source of heat or ignition) with
recognised fuels - contact with these materials, following an ambient or slightly elevated temperature, is often violent and
may produce ignition.
• The state of subdivision may affect the results.
• Presence of rust (iron oxide) or other metal oxides catalyses decomposition of inorganic hypochlorites.
• Contact with water can cause heating and decomposition giving off chlorine and oxygen gases. Solid hypochlorites in contact
with water or moisture may generate sufficient heat to ignite combustible materials. Thermal decomposition can be sustained in
the absence of oxygen.
• Contact with acids produces toxic fumes of chlorine.
• Bottles of strong sodium hypochlorite solution (10-14% available chlorine) burst in storage due to failure of the cap designed
to vent oxygen slowly during storage. A hot summer may have exacerbated the situation. Vent caps should be checked regularly
(using full personal protection) and hypochlorites should not be stored in direct sunlight or at temperatures exceeding 18 deg.
C.
Contact with acids produces toxic fumes of chlorine.
• Avoid any contamination of this material as it is very reactive and any contamination is potentially hazardous.

PERSONAL PROTECTION
RESPIRATOR
• type b-p filter of sufficient capacity.
EYE
• Safety glasses with unperforated side shields may be used where continuous eye protection is desirable, as in laboratories;
spectacles are not sufficient where complete eye protection is needed such as when handling bulk-quantities, where there is a
danger of splashing, or if the material may be under pressure
• Chemical goggles.whenever there is a danger of the material coming in contact with the eyes; goggles must be properly fitted
• Full face shield (20 cm, 8 in minimum) may be required for supplementary but never for primary protection of eyes; these afford
face protection.
• Alternatively a gas mask may replace splash goggles and face shields.
HANDS/FEET
• Elbow length PVC gloves.
NOTE:
• The material may produce skin sensitisation in predisposed individuals. Care must be taken, when removing gloves and other
protective equipment, to avoid all possible skin contact.
• Contaminated leather items, such as shoes, belts and watch-bands should be removed and destroyed.
Suitability and durability of glove type is dependent on usage. Important factors in the selection of gloves include: such as:
• frequency and duration of contact,
• chemical resistance of glove material,
• glove thickness and
• dexterity.
OTHER
• Overalls.
• PVC Apron.
• PVC protective suit may be required if exposure severe.
• Eyewash unit.

■ Ingestion may produce health damage*.
■ * (limited evidence).
CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
■ Possible skin sensitiser*.
■ Limited evidence of a carcinogenic effect*.
■ Cumulative effects may result following exposure*.
■ * (limited evidence).
TOXICITY AND IRRITATION
■ Asthma-like symptoms may continue for months or even years after exposure to the material ceases. This may be due to a nonallergenic condition known as reactive airways dysfunction syndrome (RADS) which can occur following exposure to high levels of
highly irritating compound.
Hypochlorite salts are classified by IARC as Group 3: NOT classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans.
Evidence of carcinogenicity may be inadequate or limited in animal testing.
The material may produce moderate eye irritation leading to inflammation. Repeated or prolonged exposure to irritants may produce
conjunctivitis.
Hypochlorite salts are extremely corrosive and can cause severe damage to the eyes and skin.
A number of fibrosarcomas and squamous cell carcinomas were observed in mice treated dermally with repeated subcarcinogenic doses
of 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide, followed by dermal treatment with sodium hypochlorite.

Section 13 - DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
• Containers may still present a chemical hazard/ danger when empty.
• Return to supplier for reuse/ recycling if possible.
Otherwise:
• If container can not be cleaned sufficiently well to ensure that residuals do not remain or if the container cannot be used to
store the same product, then puncture containers, to prevent re-use, and bury at an authorised landfill.
• Where possible retain label warnings and MSDS and observe all notices pertaining to the product.
Legislation addressing waste disposal requirements may differ by country, state and/ or territory. Each user must refer to laws
operating in their area.
A Hierarchy of Controls seems to be common - the user should investigate:
• Reduction.
• DO NOT allow wash water from cleaning or process equipment to enter drains.
• It may be necessary to collect all wash water for treatment before disposal.
• In all cases disposal to sewer may be subject to local laws and regulations and these should be considered first.
