Millipore Chlorine Tablets

Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.

Immediately remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash with soap or mild detergent and large amounts of water for at least 10 minutes.

Wash eyes immediately with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Occasionally lift the upper and lower lids.

Avoid inducing vomiting or giving bicarbonates or carbonates.

Sodium dichlorocyanurate dihydrate is not a flammable material, but enhances combustion of other substances. In addition, thermal decomposition takes place at temperatures above 240°C. This decomposition, with liberation of toxic vapors including chlorine, may be stopped by application of a water spray to cool the product. The following are also appropriate for fires involving this product: Non-ammonium dry chemical powder, alcohol-resistant foam, carbon dioxide.

Do not use fire extinguishers containing ammonium compounds. ABC Dry chemical extinguishers contain ammonium compounds.

Under fire conditions, Sodium dichlorocyanurate dihydrate forms toxic and irritating gases and fumes. See section 10.

Do not approach from the lee side if not fully protected as above.

Small Spills: Eliminate unnecessary traffic in area of the spill. Eliminate or extinguish all sources of ignition. Large Spills: Evacuate spill area! Maximize local ventilation by increasing exhaust system flow. Return to spill area only if using proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8

Sodium dichlorocyanurate dihydrate is toxic to aquatic organisms.

Clean up the spilled product as quickly as possible after the release to prevent decomposition due to contamination with other materials. Carefully sweep spilled substance into dry containers, using non-combustible tools and containers.
