Protection of First-Aiders: Protect yourself by avoiding contact with this material. Use personal
protective equipment. Refer to Section 8 for specific personal protective equipment recommendations.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not ingest. At minimum, treating personnel should utilize PPE
sufficient for prevention of bloodborne pathogen transmission.
Notes to Physician: Treat as a corrosive substance. This material is more irritating to the skin and
eyes in the presence of water. For prolonged exposures and significant exposures, consider delayed
injury to exposed tissues. There is no antidote. Cyanuric acid is readily removed from the body via the
renal system, and is not bioaccumulated Treatment is supportive care. Follow normal parameters for
airway, breathing and circulation.
5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Fire Hazard: Negligible fire hazard. If heated by outside source to temperatures above 240
o
C
(484
o
F), this product will undergo decomposition with the evolution of noxious gases but no visible
flame. Wet material may generate nitrogen trichloride, an explosion hazard.
Extinguishing Media: Flood with copious amounts of water. Do not use ABC fire extinguishers. Do not
use dry chemicals, carbon dioxide, or halogenated extinguishing agents.
Fire Fighting: Consider evacuation of personnel located downwind. Keep unnecessary people away,
isolate hazard area and deny entry. Move container from fire area if it can be done without risk. Avoid
inhalation of material or combustion by-products. Stay upwind and keep out of low areas. Wear
NIOSH approved positive-pressure self-container breathing apparatus operated in pressure demand
mode. Material which appears undamaged except for being damp on the outside should be opened
and inspected immediately. DO NOT attempt to reseal contaminated drums. Damp material should be
neutralized to a non-oxidizing state. Contact supplier for instructions for handling and disposal of
damp material.

of carbon, Phosgene
Sensitivity to Mechanical Impact: Not sensitive
Sensibility to Static Discharge: Not sensitive

GHS: Physical Hazards – Oxidizing Solid – Cat. 2
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautions: Keep unnecessary and unprotected persons away. Isolate hazard area and
deny entry. Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing. Do not breathe dust, fume, gas, mist, vapors, or
spray. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment recommended in Section 8, Exposure
Controls/Personal Protection of the SDS. Keep away from combustible materials.
Methods and Materials for Containment and Cleaning Up: DO NOT add water to spilled
material.DO NOT use floor sweeping compounds to clean up spills. Sweep and scoop spilled material
into clean, dedicated equipment. Every attempt should be made to avoid mixing spilled material with
other chemicals or debris when cleaning up. DO NOT attempt to reseal contaminated drums. DO
NOT transport wet or damp material. Damp material should be neutralized to a non-oxidizing state.
Contact Oxychem for instructions for handling and disposal of damp material.
