| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
white powder | [Potential Exposure]
Arsenic pentoxide is used in production
of metal arsenates; as an herbicide, defoliant on cotton;
as a chemical intermediate; as an ingredient in wood preservatives;
and in glass. Other possible uses are as an insecticide
and soil sterilant. | [First aid]
If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove any
contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least
15 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek
medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts the
skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately
with soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately.
If this chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,
begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including
resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR if
heart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medical
facility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical
attention. Give large quantities of water and induce
vomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit.
| [Shipping]
UN1559 Arsenic pentoxide, Hazard Class: 6.1;
Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials. | [Incompatibilities]
Decomposes above 315 C, forming oxygen
and arsenic trioxide fumes. Arsenic pentoxide is an
oxidizer; reacts violently with bromine pentafluoride and
reducing agents. The solution in water is a weak acid.
Incompatible with acids, strong alkalis; halogens, rubidium
carbide, zinc. Corrosive to metals in the presence of moisture.
Contact with acids or acid mists releases deadly arsine
gas. | [Waste Disposal]
Dissolve in a minimum of
concentrated hydrochloric acid. Dilute with water until
white precipitate forms. Add HCl to dissolve. Saturate with
H2S; filter and wash precipitate and return to supplier.
Alternatively, precipitate with heavy metals, such as lime
or ferric hydroxide in lieu of H2S. If needed, seek
professional environmental engineering assistance from
the United States Environmental Protection Agency
Environmental Response Team at (908) 548-8730 (24-hour
response line). Consult with environmental regulatory agencies
for guidance on acceptable disposal practices.
Generators of waste containing this contaminant (≥100 kg/
mo) must conform with EPA regulations governing storage,
transportation, treatment, and waste disposal. In accordance
with 40CFR165, follow recommendations for the disposal
of pesticides and pesticide containers. Must be disposed
properly by following package label directions or by contacting your local or federal environmental control
agency, or by contacting your regional EPA office. | [Uses]
ARSENIC(V) OXIDE HYDRATE is used in the preparation of arsenates and the pharmaceutical industry, and also as an insecticide. | [reaction suitability]
