NFPA Hazard Ratings:

0=Minimal, 1=Slight, 2=Moderate, 3=Serious, 4=Severe

• Signs and Symptoms of Acute Overexposure: Eye, skin irritation
• Signs and Symptoms of Chronic overexposure: Dermatitis and skin sensitization
• Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure: Allergies, dermatitis.
• Ingestion: Ingestion (acute exposure) of ammonium salts may produce nausea, vomiting, gastric irritation. Large doses (over 6 grams) may cause systemic ammonia toxicity. Symptoms may include heavy breathing, blue skin, dulness, restlessness, convulsions or coma. DSP ingestion may result in abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, shock, hypertension, slow pulse, cyanosis, coma and convulsions.

• Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air
• Ingestion: Wash mouth out with water or milk. Get medical aid for chemical ingredients.
• Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and footwear. Wash skin with soap and water for at least 15 minutes. Wash clothing before reuse.
• Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with water for 15 minutes. Get medical attention.
• Note to Physician: Treat chemical exposure symptomatically and supportively.

 Flash Point: Ammonium salt is nonflammable,

Flammability Limits: NA

Autoignition temp: NA

Fire Extinguishing Media: Water spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical

Special Fire-Fighting Information: None

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Strong oxidizers. At fire temperatures ammonium chloride begins to corrode metals and may dissociate into ammonia and hydrogen chloride. Mixtures of about 16% to 25% (by volume) ammonia gas in air are flammable.

• Ventilation System: Good general ventilation is advisable
• Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): if needed, use respirator to screen out nuisance dust and fumes
• Skin Protection: Long sleeved clothing
• Eye Protection: Safety glasses if dust is raised
• Other Control Measures: Minimize exposure in accordance with good hygiene practice. Avoid handling which would create large amounts of dust.

• Appearance and Color: Free-flowing tan and white granules.
• Odor: Moderate ammonia and yeast
• Solubility in Water: 29.7 g/100 g water @ 20 deg.
• Specific Gravity: 1.05
• pH: 5.5 (1% solution)
• % volatile by volume @ 21C (70F): 0
• Boiling Point: 520 C (968F)
• Melting Point: 338C (640F) Sublimes
• Vapor Density (Air=1): 1.9
• Vapor Pressure (mm Hg): 1.0 @ 160 C (320F)
• Evaporation Rate (Bu. Acetate=1): NDA

• Stability: Product is stable under normal temperature and pressures.
• Hazardous Decomposition Products: Contact of ammonium salts with bromine trifluoride may cause explosion. Violent reaction between ammonium salts may occur on contact with iodine heptafluoride. Ammonium salts forms unstable ammonium perchlorate in combination with potassium chlorate.
• Hazardous Polymerization: will not occur.
• Incompatibility: See hazardous decomposition, above, and caustics.
• Conditions to Avoid: Heat, Exposure to strong acids, bromine trifluoride, iodine heptafluoride, potassium chlorate. Explosive nitrogen trichloride may result from reaction of ammonium chloride and hydrogen cyanide.
  

• Toxicological Data:

RTECS: CAS#12125-02-9: BP4550000

LD50/LC50: CAS# 12125-02-9: oral,rat LD50 = 1650 mg/Kg, Draize, rabbit, eye = 500 mg/Kg

• Carcinogenicity: Ingredients not listed by ACGIH, IARC, NIOSH, NTR, or OSHA

Environmental Fate: If diluted with water, this product is expected to increase aquatic eutrophication, with attendant overgrowth of algae, micro-algae, weeds and Cyanobacteria. Product delivers 260,000 mg/Kg ammonia-nitrogen, when applied directly to water body. Aquatic pollution can be bioremediated by addition of Alken Clear-Flo 1100-50x.

Environmental Toxicity: Prevent release to potable water sources for mammals (includes humans, livestock & wildlife). Will cause digestive irritation, if consumed by mammals.
