Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth thoroughly if conscious, and seek urgent medical attention. Suspected toxicity means keep sample for analysis by hospital staff if possible.
Acute and Delayed Symptoms: Symptoms like burning, coughing, head pain, nausea, or allergic reaction may appear quickly or after some delay.
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical powder, or carbon dioxide for small fires. Avoid using water jets.
Specific Hazards: Contaminant decomposition can release hydrogen chloride, hydrogen fluoride, and oxides of chromium, possible corrosive or toxic fumes.
Special Protective Equipment: Firefighters require self-contained breathing apparatus and full chemical protective clothing.
Precautions: Move containers away from fire area if safe, cool them with fine water spray to prevent pressure build-up. Hazard zone evacuation advised.
Personal Precautions: Evacuate staff, use personal protective equipment such as gloves, goggles, lab coat, and respirator when airborne contamination is likely.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent release to drainage, surface, or groundwater. Alert local authorities if substantial spill threatens the environment.
Cleanup Methods: Absorb liquid with inert material (vermiculite, dry sand). Place in chemical waste container. Ventilate area, wash spill sites after material pickup is complete, avoiding contact with skin or eyes.
Decontamination: Decontaminate affected surfaces with appropriate cleaning agent, ensure proper ventilation, and safe waste handling procedures.
Safe Handling: Always handle inside chemical fume hood or ventilated enclosure. Wear suitable PPE. Prevent inhalation, ingestion, or skin and eye contact. Do not smoke, eat, or drink in area. Segregate from incompatible materials.
Storage Requirements: Keep container tightly closed under cool, dry conditions, protected from moisture and light. Maintain in dedicated chemical storage cabinet, away from combustible substances, acids, and oxidizers.
Incompatibles: Strong bases, reducing agents, strong oxidizers, acids, and moisture-sensitive chemicals. Avoid contact with unlined steel and aluminum.
Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation, closed handling systems, chemical fume hood.
Personal Protective Equipment: Chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile or neoprene), splash-proof safety goggles, lab coat, and respiratory protection (NIOSH-approved respirator for dust/vapor/formulation if airborne risk exists).
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands thoroughly after handling, before breaks and at end of workday. Remove contaminated clothing immediately.
Environmental Controls: Procedures for collecting and destroying vapors and residues before exhaust release, spill containment systems in labs.
Appearance: Solid or powder, color can range from bright green to blue depending on ligand environment.
Odor: Odorless or faint chemical smell.
Melting Point/Range: Information not quantitatively established; decomposition likely before melting.
Boiling Point/Range: Not applicable for complex metal salts.
Solubility: Partial solubility in water; higher solubility in polar organic solvents (methanol, DMSO, acetone).
pH: Slightly acidic aqueous suspensions.
Flash Point: Not determined, presumed non-flammable as solid.
Decomposition Temperature: Expected moderate thermal decomposition, with release of hazardous gases (HCl, HF, chromium oxides).
Vapor Pressure: Negligible at room temperature.
Density: Not specifically measured; dense due to metallic content.
Partition Coefficient (n-octanol/water): Not established but expected to favor organic phase due to fluorinated ligands.
Stability: Stable when stored as recommended. Reacts with moisture, strong acids, alkalis, and oxidizers.
Reactivity: Breaks down under strong heating, UV irradiation, or presence of strong acids, releasing corrosive and toxic byproducts.
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen chloride, oxides of chromium, carbonyl fluoride, sulfur oxides.
Polymerization: Hazardous polymerization not anticipated for this product.
Conditions to Avoid: Exposure to heat, direct sunlight, high humidity, contact with incompatible substances.
Routes of Exposure: Ingested, inhaled, absorbed through skin or mucous membranes.
Acute Toxicity: Oral, dermal, or inhalation exposure can result in chemical burns, irritation, organ toxicity. Suspected of causing genetic defects.
Chronic Toxicity: Prolonged exposure linked to chromium-induced carcinogenicity and lung issues. Chronic exposure to organofluorines invades the liver, thyroid, and reproductive organs.
Symptoms: Irritation, redness, burns on contact with skin or eyes, cough, labored breathing, nausea, abdominal pain if ingested, potential delayed effects due to bioaccumulation of fluoride or chromium.
Carcinogenicity: Chromium (VI) compounds classified as carcinogenic to humans (IARC Group 1), though this particular complex contains mostly Chromium (III), carcinogenic risk is suspected with certain breakdown pathways.
Ecotoxicity: Highly toxic to aquatic organisms—even at minute concentrations. Can cause long-term adverse impact in aquatic environment, both acute and chronic.
Persistence and Degradability: Complex chromium compounds often persist in environment. Fluorinated chains resist biodegradation, adding to environmental load.
Bioaccumulation Potential: High due to fluorinated organics, chromium also builds up in organism tissues.
Mobility in Soil: Moves slowly through soil; persistent and may contaminate groundwater.
Other Harmful Effects: Risk of fluoride buildup and chromium pollution in regions exposed to manufacturing or spills.
Disposal Methods: Classified as hazardous waste—do not dispose of via general laboratory or municipal trash. Collect waste material in sealed, properly labeled chemical containers.
Incineration: Consider incineration by licensed contractor with adequate air pollution control, ensuring regulatory compliance due to emission of HF, HCl, and other toxics.
Other Precautions: Avoid discharge to sewer, groundwater, or surface water. Contaminated packaging must be treated as hazardous and disposed by certified facility.
Regulatory Codes: Comply with national, state, and local regulations for hazardous waste disposal (see EPA Resource Conservation and Recovery Act for US).
UN Number: Assign as dangerous goods for transport.
Proper Shipping Name: Chromium Compound, Organic, Toxic, N.O.S.
Transport Hazard Class: 6.1 (Toxic substances).
Packing Group: II or III depending on container type and concentration.
Environmental Hazard: Marked as Marine Pollutant.
Precautions During Transport: Secure upright, away from foodstuff. Trained personnel use certified vehicles. Transport documents and MSDS must accompany shipments.
Workplace Safety: OSHA Hazard Communication Standard applies in exposed workplaces. GHS-compliant labeling and hazard disclosure required.
Environmental Laws: US EPA lists certain chromium compounds as hazardous air and water pollutants. European REACH lists PBT (Persistent, Bioaccumulative, Toxic) fluorinated compounds under authorization or restriction.
Chemical Inventory Status: Registered or notification may be required with national chemicals inventory (TSCA, EINECS, etc.).
Additional Protection: Local, state, and federal rules may apply—facility managers should conduct regular compliance review and ensure up-to-date employee training.
Other Regulations: Chromium and organofluorine regulations require reporting of large inventory, spills, or disposal activities.
