Keep away from heat and flame. Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. | 【Handling】
Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash hands before eating. Use with adequate ventilation. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not ingest or inhale. |
| Hazards Identification | Back to Contents | 【Ingestion】
Harmful if swallowed. May cause kidney damage. May cause severe digestive tract irritation with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause hemorrhaging of the digestive tract. Barium chloride affects the muscles (especially the smooth muscles of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems), causes salivation, tingling of the mouth or face, convulsions, numbness, muscle paralysis, respiratory failure, slow pulse rate, pulmonary edema, irregular heart beat, potassium deficiency in the | 【Inhalation】
Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause effects similar to those described for ingestion. | 【Skin】
Causes skin irritation. Prolonged contact with the skin, especially if the skin is wet or moist, causes necrosis. | 【Eyes】
Contact produces irritation, tearing, and burning pain. May cause conjunctivitis. | 【Hazards】
Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. | 【EC Risk Phrase】

| Exposure Controls/Personal Protection | Back to Contents | 【Personal Protection】
Eyes: Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European Standard EN166. Skin: Wear appropriate gloves to prevent skin exposure. Clothing: Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin exposure. | 【Respirators】
Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29CFR 1910.134 or European Standard EN 149. Always use a NIOSH or European Standard EN 149 approved respirator when necessary. | 【Exposure limit(s)】
OSHA PEL: TWA 0.5 mg/m3 NIOSH REL: TWA 0.5 mg/m3 *Note: PEL and REL also applies to other soluble Ba cmpds (as Ba) except Barium sulfate. NIOSH IDLH: 50 mg/m3 (as Ba) | 【Poison Class】
2 (Very strong toxins) |
| Fire Fighting Measures | Back to Contents | 【Fire Fighting】
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Non-combustible, substance itself does not burn but may decompose upon heating to produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic fumes. Extinguishing media: For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or alcohol-resistant foam. Substance is noncombustible; use agent most appropriate to extinguish surrounding fire. | 【Fire Potential】
This material is probably combustible. |
| Accidental Release Measures | Back to Contents | 【Small spills/leaks】
Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal container. Clean up spills immediately, using the appropriate protective equipment. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide ventilation. |
| Stability and Reactivity | Back to Contents | 【Incompatibilities】
Incompatible with bromine trifluoride and 2-furan percarboxylic acid (explodes at room temperature). Reacts violently with sulfuric acid. | 【Stability】
Stable under normal shipping and handling conditions. | 【Decomposition】
Hydrogen chloride, chlorine. | 【Combustion Products】
Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. |
