Section 3 – Hazards identification
Hazardous classifications: 8.3 other corrosives.
Exposure hazards: Inhalation, swallowing, skin contact
May cause strong irritation to mucous membrane in eyes and some body parts like eyes. Cyanamid has deliquescence character, which can irritate people’s skin like caustic alkali. After four or five days, some eczema dermatitis that will cause both large reaction and a lot of pain will appear on ordinary skin.
Targeting organs No record
Eyes Liquid may cause strong irritation and may cause serious eye inflammation.
Skin May cause serious irritation and may cause injury to skin.
Potential health effects
Ingestion May cause digestive system inflammation if ingested.
Inhalation Liquid may cause strong irritation to the respiratory system.
Chronic No record.
Environmental hazards No record
Potential risk of explosion Violent exothermic reaction if exposed to fire or temperatures exceeding the melting point, or polymerization with acids and bases.
Section 4 – First Aid Measures
Skin: Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes after removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid immediately.
Inhalation: Remove to the place with fresh air immediately. If no breath, give artificial respiration, if breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid. If conscious, give 2- 4 cups of milk.
Section 5 – Fire Fighting Measure
General information As in any fire, high temperatures and oxidizers may cause acute decomposition or produce large heat from polymerization reaction and can cause explosion and fire. As in water, acid, alkali and other active materials may produce large heat and lead to explosion. May cause burn to body or erode other metal material. As solid in fire, may produce heavy and poisonous gas.
Generation of Hazardous materials.
Oxide Azotes, CO, CO2, N2.
Extinguishing media: Use water spray, dry powder or sand, carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam.
Special fire fighting procedures:
Fireman should wear positive pressed freely breathing devices, complete fire protection clothes and shoes. Use water to cool exposed containers to extinguish fire.
Section 6 – Accidental Release Measures
Emergency measures
Cut off from power source and put into appropriate container, cannot be washed into drainpipe by water which may lead them into river.
Avoiding inhalation and kindly note that people should wear positive pressed freely breath device and keep them away from the body.
Provide ventilation.
Spills/ leaks Dike and control spill. Absorb with inert material. Sweep or shovel into suitable containers with lids for disposal. Any waste must be removed to an appropriate waste disposal area.
Section 7 – Handling and Storage
Handling: Use protective clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reusing. Use adequate ventilation.
Avoid direct contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Wear full face mask and eye protection. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Storage: Keep container closed when not in use. Store in a cool, dry area (under 68F) and keep away from incompatible substances.
Section 8 – Contact Controls and Personal Protection
