CORROSIVE SUBSTANCE

Characteristics.
Corrosive, causes damage to skin, eyes, and respiratory tract.
Flash point higher than 60°C or non-flammable.
Danger.
Heating of containers causes pressure increase with the risk of bursting, followed by an explosion.
Emits corrosive and irritating vapors (even when burning).
Can corrode metals, forming hydrogen gas. This can lead to the formation of an explosive mixture with air.
The vapor may be invisible and is heavier than air. Therefore, it spreads over the ground and can penetrate basements and sewers.
Personal protection.
Use chemical-resistant overalls.
Use respiratory protection.
Use gas-tight suit in the vicinity of the substance or vapor.
Source control.
4.1 General.
Stay upwind. Enter the danger zone only with the appropriate protective clothing.
4.2 Leakage.
Stop the leakage if possible.
Dilute the leaked product with water if necessary to reduce danger. Prevent the spread of diluted product by any means.
