3. COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS

Product Name & Other Names: Potassium Permanganate; Permanganic acid, potassium salt
CAS No.: 7722-64-7
EINECS EC Number: 231-760-3

4. FIRST AID MEASURES

Always seek medical attention after first aid measures are provided.

Emergency and First Aid Procedures:
Eyes - Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.
Skin - Thoroughly wash exposed area for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Get medical attention at once.
Ingestion - If Potassium permanganate is swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Give large quantities of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately.
Inhalation - Remove to fresh air. Give oxygen if breathing is difficult; give artificial respiration if breathing has stopped. Keep person warm, quiet and get medical attention at once.

5. FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES

Extinguisher Media: Use dry chemical, CO2 or appropriate foam.
Auto ignition Temperature: N/A
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Potassium permanganate is strong oxidizer. Contact with combustible materials, flammable materials or powdered metals can cause fire or explosion.
Special Information: In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full face piece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode.

6. SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Ventilate area of spill. Clean-up personnel should wear proper protective equipment. Avoid creating dust. Sweep or scoop up and containerize for disposal. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.).
Environmental precautions: Do not let the product enter drains, soil or water sources.
Methods and materials used for containment Cleanup procedures and Storage: Contain spilled material. Cover with an inert, non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite). Vacuum or sweep-up and remove to an approved disposal container.

7. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS

Precautions for safe handling: Apply according to good manufacturing and industrial hygiene practices. Ensure proper ventilation. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not drink, eat or smoke while handling. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Minimize dust generation. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.).
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in cool, dry and ventilated area away from heat sources and protected from sunlight in tightly closed original container. Keep air contact to a minimum. Do not leave the material container open. Store protected from heat, sparks and ignition sources and incompatible materials. Avoid inhalation of dust/mist/vapor. Do not store with incompatible materials like organic materials, combustible materials, strong reducing agents, strong acids, peroxides, alcohols, chemically active metals, flammable and combustible materials.
