------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                       FIRE AND EXPLOSION DATA

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD:
Negligible fire hazard when exposed to heat or flame.

Oxidizer: Oxidizers decompose, especially when heated, to yield oxygen or
other gases which will increase the burning rate of combustible matter.
Contact with easily oxidizable, organic, or other combustible materials
may result in ignition, violent combustion or explosion.

FIREFIGHTING MEDIA:
Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or regular foam
(1990 Emergency Response Guidebook, DOT P 5800.5).

For larger fires, use water spray, fog or regular foam
(1990 Emergency Response Guidebook, DOT P 5800.5).

FIREFIGHTING:
Move container from fire area if you can do it without risk. Apply cooling
water to sides of containers that are exposed to flames until well after fire
is out. Stay away from ends of tanks (1990 Emergency Response Guidebook,
DOT P 5800.5, Guide Page 59).

Use agents suitable for type of fire; use water in flooding amounts as fog.
Cool containers with flooding amounts of water, apply from as far a distance
as possible. Avoid breathing poisonous and corrosive vapors, keep upwind.
Evacuate to a radius of 2500 feet for leaks.

Fire fighting phases: Use large amounts of water to cool containers and wash
away spills. Hypo solution (sodium thio sulfate) or lime water should be
poured over small liquid spills. Anhydrous ammonia vapor released from a safe
distance can be used to neutralize large quantities of bromine vapor. Avoid
aqueous ammonia as it might react violently with liquid bromine (NFPA 49,
Hazardous Chemicals Data, 1975).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                    HEALTH EFFECTS AND FIRST AID
INHALATION:
BROMINE:
CORROSIVE/TOXIC. 10 ppm Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health.
  ACUTE EXPOSURE- Exposure to 1 ppm may cause irritation. 3.5 ppm has a
    detectable odor; 10 ppm is severely irritation and may be intolerable:
    40-60 ppm is dangerous for brief exposures; 1000 ppm is rapidly fatal.
    Inhalation of small amounts may cause copious mucous secretion,
    blephritis, coughing, rhinitis or nosebleeds, feelings of oppresion.
    Epistaxis, vertigo, and headache. Delayed symptoms may include nausea,
    diarrhea and abdominal pains. In addition, respiratory difficulty with
    hoarseness, asthma, dyspnea, and crepitations in the lungs as well as
    as well as generalized vesicular, morbilliform or measles like rashes may
    occur. Inhalation of high concentrations may cause inflammatory lesions of
    the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract, fatal chemical burns
    respiratory failure. The tongue and palate may appear inflamed and
    edematous with a characteristic odor of the breath. Glottal spasms and
    asthmatic bronchitits may occur. Pulmonary edema, pneumonitis or
    pneumonia may be delayed for several hours. A case of pneumomediastinum
    induced by accidental occupational exposure was reported. The pathology
    of animals exposed to 300 ppm for 3 hours showed pulmonary edema,
    pseudomembranous deposit on the trachea and bronchi, and hemorrhages of
    the gastric mucosa. Functional disturbances of the central nervous system
    were observed in animals that died several days after exposure.
  CHRONIC EXPOSURE- Prolonged or repeated exposure to concentrations less than
    0.1 mg/m3 may cause headache, chest pains, anorexia, indigestion,
    irritability and joint pains. Persons exposed to excessive concentrations
    for 1 year complain of headache, pain in the region of the heart,
    increasing irritability, loss of appetite, joint pains and dyspepsia.
    After 5-6 years of exposure to this level there may be loss of corneal
    reflexes, pharyngitis, vegetative disorders, thyroid hyperplasia
    accompanied by thyroid dysfunction and bone marrow depression.
    Cardiovascular disorders may occur in the form of myocardial degeneration
    and hypotension. Functional and secretory disorders of the digestive
    tract may also occur. Hematologic effects may include inhibition of
    leukopoiesis, leukocytosis, moderate hypoglycemia or altered blood sugar
    curves, hypercholesterolemia, reduction of total bilirubin, decreased
    hemoglobin concentration and increased erythrocyte sedimentation rates.
    Bromine may be deposited in the tissues as bromides and accumulate to
    cause central nervous system disorders and effects of bromism as detailed
    in chronic ingestion.

FIRST AID- Remove from exposure area to fresh air immediately. If breathing
  has stopped, perform artificial respiration. Keep person warm and at rest.
  Treat symptomatically and supportively. Get medical attention immediately.

SKIN CONTACT:
BROMINE:
CORROSIVE.
  ACUTE EXPOSURE- Concentrated vapors may be irritating or harmful.
    Direct contact with the liquid may cause a mild, cooling sensation
    followed by a burning sensation. If not removed promptly redness and
    pain may result with brown discoloration, vesicles, blisters, discharging
    pustules, furuncles, destructive burns and deep-seated ulcers which are
    slow to heal and scar. Death may occur if burns cover a large portion of
    the body.
  CHRONIC EXPOSURE- Prolonged or repeated contact may cause dermatitis and
    slow healing ulcers.

FIRST AID- Remove contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Wash affected
  area with soap or mild detergent and large amounts of water until no
  evidence of chemical remains (at least 15-20 minutes). In case of chemical
  burns, cover area with sterile, dry dressing. Bandage securely, but not
  too tightly. Get medical attention immediately.

EYE CONTACT:
BROMINE:
CORROSIVE.
  ACUTE EXPOSURE- Vapors may cause irritation with redness, pain, blurred
    vision and burns, lacrimation and photophobia. The liquid may cause burns.
    Animals exposed to 180 ppm for 7 hours showed severe irritation with
    clouding and ulceration of the cornea. Loss of vision is possible.
  CHRONIC EXPOSURE- Effects depend on concentration and duration of exposure.
    Repeated or prolonged contact with corrosive substances may result in
    conjunctivitis or effects as in acute exposure.

FIRST AID- Wash eyes immediately with large amounts of water, occasionally
  lifting upper and lower lids, until no evidence of chemical remains (at
  least 15-20 minutes). Continue irrigating with normal saline until the pH
  has returned to normal (30-60 minutes). Cover with sterile bandages. Get
  medical attention immediately.

INGESTION:
BROMINE:
CORROSIVE.
  ACUTE EXPOSURE- May cause burns of the mouth, throat and stomach. Brown
    discoloration and corrosion of the tongue and mucous membranes,
    sore throat, vomiting, and abdominal spasm may occur. Severe
    gastroenteritis with possible ulceration or perforation, prostration and
    circulatory collapse may also occur. Dilute solutions may also cause
    fatal gastroenteritis.  
CHRONIC EXPOSURE- Mice fed 0.02-0.2 mg/kg for 3 months exhibited increased
    blood sugar, decreased cholinesterase and amylaminase activity, alopecia
    and behavioral changes. Bromine may be stored in the body as bromides.
    If sufficient amounts accumulate, effects of bromism including confusion,
    irritability, tremor, memory loss, anorexia, emaciation, headache, slurred
    speach, delusions, psychotic behavior, ataxia, stupor and coma may occur.
    An acneiform papular eruption of the face and hands may also occur.

  FIRST AID- Do not use gastric lavage or emesis. Dilute chemical immediately
    by drinking large amounts of water or milk. If vomiting persists,
    administer fluids repeatedly. Do not give an unconscious person anything
    to drink. Get medical attention.

ANTIDOTE:
No specific antidote. Treat symptomatically and supportively.
