3. HAZARDS AND PROTECTION

Storage:

• Keep in a cool, dry, dark location in a tightly sealed container or cylinder.
• Keep away from incompatible materials, ignition sources, and untrained individuals.
• Secure and label area.
• Protect containers and cylinders from physical damage.

Handling:

• All chemicals should be considered hazardous.
• Avoid direct physical contact.
• Use appropriate, approved safety equipment.
• Untrained individuals should not handle this chemical or its container.
• Handling should occur in a chemical fume hood.

Protection: Wear appropriate protective gloves, clothing, and goggles.

Respirators: Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).

Small spills and leaks:

• Do not touch damaged packages or spilled material.
• Cover liquid spill with sand, earth, or other noncombustible absorbent material.
• Cover the powder spill with a plastic sheet or tarp to minimize spreading.
• Contact the radiation safety officer.

At any detectable concentration: Any self-contained breathing apparatus with a full facepiece operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode.

Any supplied-air respirator with a full facepiece operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode or other positive-pressure mode with an auxiliary self-contained breathing apparatus operated in pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode.

Escape – any air-purifying, full-facepiece respirator with a high-efficiency particulate filler.

Any appropriate escape-type, self-contained breathing apparatus.

4 FIREFIGHTING

The presence of radioactive material will not influence the fire control processes and should not influence the selection of techniques.

• Small fires: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray, or regular foam.
• Large fires: Water spray, fog (flooding amounts).

Fire potential: May burn but does not ignite readily.

Firefighting and Other Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health Conditions

Use any self-contained breathing apparatus with a full facepiece respirator and a high-efficiency particulate filter.

Use any supplied-air respirator with a full facepiece operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode or other positive-pressure modes with an auxiliary self-contained breathing apparatus operated in pressure-demand or other positive-pressure modes.

5. HEALTH

Exposure limits: 0.1 mg/m3 TLV

Carcinogen: G-A4, I-1, N-1, CP65

Exposure Effects

Ingestion, skin, and eyes: See Inhalation.

Inhalation:

• There is minimal risk if the packaging remains intact.
• Package damage can result in a measurable release of radiation, but the risk is still low.

6. FIRST AID

Inhalation:

• Apply artificial respiration if the patient is not breathing.
• Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult.
• See ingestion.

Skin and eyes:

• Immediately flush with running water for at least 20 minutes.
• See ingestion.

Ingestion:

• Medical problems take priority over radiological concerns.
• Use first aid treatment according to the nature of the injury.
• Do not delay the care and transport of a seriously injured person.
