Increased temperature may be noted in some cases. Abnormally low blood pressure may occur. Mental status may be depressed. Cretinism and goiter have been reported in children whose mothers were taking iodides. |
| 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. Substance is noncombustible. May form very sensitive, explosive metallic compounds. Extinguishing media: Substance is noncombustible; use agent most appropriate to extinguish surrounding fire. | 【Fire Potential】
Combustible material: may burn but does not ignite readily. |
| Accidental Release Measures | Back to Contents | 【Small spills/leaks】
Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal container. Reduce airborne dust and prevent scattering by moistening with water. Clean up spills immediately, using the appropriate protective equipment. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide ventilation. |
