Inhalation:Inhalation of dust may cause coughing, choking, with variable symptoms of headache, dizziness, and weakness. May cause lung edema.
Ingestion:Causes irritation to the gastrointestinal tract. Symptoms may include nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Skin Contact:Causes irritation to skin. Symptoms include redness, itching, and pain.
Eye Contact:Causes irritation, redness, and pain.
Chronic Exposure:A mild toxic syndrome "iodism" may result from chronic iodide overdoses. May cause salivation, sneezing, conjunctivitis, headache, fever, laryngitis, bronchitis, stomatitis, and parotitis (iodine mumps). Prolonged or repeated skin exposure may cause skin rashes.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:No information found.
Inhalation:Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Ingestion:Induce vomiting immediately as directed by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact:Wipe off excess material from skin then immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse.
Eye Contact:Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.
Fire:Not considered to be a fire hazard.
Explosion:Not considered to be an explosion hazard.
Fire Extinguishing Media:Use any means suitable for extinguishing surrounding fire.
Special Information:In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode.
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8
Keep in a tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Protect against physical damage. Isolate from incompatible substances. Protect from light. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
Airborne Exposure Limits:-ACGIH (TWA) for Iodides:0.01 ppm for inhalable fraction and vapor.
Ventilation System:A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures below the Airborne Exposure Limits. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Please refer to the ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator (NIOSH type N95 or better filters) may be worn. If oil particles (e.g. lubricants, cutting fluids, glycerine, etc.) are present, use a NIOSH type R or P filter. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING: Air-purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Skin Protection:Wear protective gloves and clean body-covering clothing.
Eye Protection:Use chemical safety goggles. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.
Appearance:White granular or colorless crystals
Odor:Odorless.

Vapor Pressure (mm Hg):1 @ 767C (1413F)
Evaporation Rate (BuAc=1):No information found.
Stability:Stable under ordinary conditions of use and storage. Absorbs up to 5% moisture on exposure to air and becomes brown due to liberation of iodine.
Hazardous Decomposition Products:When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of iodine and sodium oxide.
Hazardous Polymerization:Will not occur.
Incompatibilities:Alkali metals, chloral hydrate, acids tartaric acid, potassium chlorate, metallic salts, iodine. Reacts violently with bromide trifluoride, perchloric acid, and oxidants.
Conditions to Avoid:Light and incompatibles.
Toxicological Data:Oral rat LD50: 4340 mg/kg. Irritation data: skin rabbit, standard Draize: 500 mg/24H, moderate; eye rabbit, standard Draize: 100 mg/24H, moderate. Investigated as a reproductive effector.
Reproductive Toxicity:The occasional use of iodides for asthma in pregnancy has resulted in fetal death, severe goiter and cretanoid appearance of the newborn.
