Use a water spray to cool <br /> fire exposed containers to prevent rupture. <br /> Nonflammable, but acid can react with many metals, such as iron, to produce flam,aable <br /> hydrogen gas. (Flammable cone. may accur-�ulat2 inside metal equipment.) Neutralize <br /> acid with limestone, slaked lime or soda ash to minimize formation of potentially <br /> explosive hydrogen gas. <br /> •ir fighters should use full grgt4ctiv clot:;iu end self-contained breathing apparatus <br /> Lien this mater al <br /> is invol�e in a ire situation <br /> SECTION V. REACTIVITY DATA <br /> This material is stable when properly contained and handled. It is a strong mineral acid <br /> and is, thus, highly reactive with materials such as metals, metal oxides, hydroxides, <br /> arsines, carbonates and other alkaline materials. It is highly}- corrosive to many <br /> materials; it must have proper cuntainmer.t for handling and storage. <br /> t liberates significant levels of HC1 gas b.; vapor pressure at room temperature when <br /> concentrated and large a^ounts of HC1 when heated. <br /> eaction with most metals will produce fl—able hydrogen gas. <br /> Incompatible with materials such as cyanide.-;, sulfides, sulfites and formaldehyde (mav <br /> release HCN, H2 S, SOS, hischloromethyl etae-, respectively) . <br /> Copyright C 1984 Gf um NbUshlsu Conmraoon <br /> A�y ranwwrtW um publ6hrr's speclrk ptmitui-i,prowbitrd, GENI UM PUBLISHING <br />
