International Chemical Safety Cards SODIUM DICHLOROISOCYANURATE ICSC: 0437 SODIUM DICHLOROISOCYANURATE Dichloro-s-triazine-2,4,6-trione; sodium salt C3HCl2N3O3.Na Molecular mass: 220.96 CAS # 2893-78-9 RTECS # XZ1900000 ICSC # 0437 UN # 2465 EC # 613-030-00-X TYPES OF HAZARD/ EXPOSURE ACUTE HAZARDS/ SYMPTOMS PREVENTION FIRST AID/ FIRE FIGHTING FIRE Not combustible but enhances combustion of other substances. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. NO contact with flammable substances. NO contact with strong reducing agents, strong bases, ammonia, urea, water. Powder, alcohol-resistant foam, water in large amounts, carbon dioxide. EXPLOSION Risk of fire and explosion on contact with strong reducing agents, strong bases, ammonia, urea, water. In case of fire: cool drums, etc., by spraying with water but avoid contact of the substance with water.   EXPOSURE PREVENT DISPERSION OF DUST! STRICT HYGIENE! INHALATION Cough. Sore throat. Local exhaust or breathing protection. Fresh air, rest. SKIN Redness. Skin burns. Pain. Protective gloves. Protective clothing. Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. Refer for medical attention. EYES Redness. Pain. Loss of vision. Severe deep burns. Face shield, or eye protection in combination with breathing protection if powder. First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor. INGESTION Burning sensation. Sore throat. Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Rest. Refer for medical attention. SPILLAGE DISPOSAL STORAGE PACKAGING & LABELLING Evacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Do NOT wash away into sewer. Sweep spilled substance into dry containers. Carefully collect remainder, then remove to safe place. Do NOT absorb in saw-dust or other combustible absorbents (extra personal protection: complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus). Separated from food and feedstuffs, see Chemical Dangers. Dry. Well closed. Airtight. Do not transport with food and feedstuffs.

International Chemical Safety Cards SODIUM DICHLOROISOCYANURATE ICSC: 0437 I M P O R T A N T D A T A PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE: WHITE CRYSTALLINE POWDER , WITH PUNGENT ODOUR. PHYSICAL DANGERS: CHEMICAL DANGERS: The substance decomposes on heating, on contact with water, producing toxic fumes, including chlorine. The substance is a strong oxidant and reacts violently with combustible and reducing materials. Reacts violently with many substances, causing fire and explosion hazard. OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS (OELs): TLV not established. ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of dust and by ingestion. INHALATION RISK: Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance irritates the eyes, the skin and the respiratory tract. Corrosive on ingestion. EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Decomposes below melting point at 230°C Relative density (water = 1): >1 Solubility in water, g/100 ml: 25

ENVIRONMENTAL DATA	This substance may be hazardous to the environment; special attention should be given to water.
