soreness erosion of the teeth accumulation of silver in body tissues which causes a slate-gray to bluish discoloration.
cancer Chromate and dichromate salts may cause ulceration and perforation of the nasal septum, severe liver damage,
central nervous system effects, and lung cancer. Mercury is a general protoplasmic poison; it circulates in the blood and
is stored in the liver, kidneys, spleen and bones. Main symptoms are sore mouth, tremors and psychic disturbances.

strong bases water
Static Discharge: None reported.
Mechanical Impact: None reported
Extinguishing Media: Use media appropriate to surrounding fire conditions
Extinguishing Media NOT To Be Used: Not applicable
Fire Fighting Instruction: As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand and full protective
gear. Evacuate area and fight fire from a safe distance. Water runoff can cause environmental damage. Dike and collect
water used to fight fire.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Spill Response Notice:
Only persons properly qualified to respond to an emergency involving hazardous substances should respond to a spill
involving chemicals. See Section 13, Special Instructions for disposal assistance.
Containment Technique: Releases of this material may contaminate the environment. Absorb spilled liquid with non-
reactive sorbent material. Stop spilled material from being released to the environment. Dike the spill to contain material
for later disposal.
Clean-up Technique: Mercury and its compounds are extremely toxic! Be extremely careful not to contact the spill or
breathe any vapors. Absorb spilled liquid with non-reactive sorbent material. Dispose of all mercury contaminated
material at an E.P.A. hazardous waste facility. Dispose of material in an E.P.A. approved hazardous waste facility.
Decontaminate area with commercially available mercury absorbing compounds.
Evacuation Procedure: Evacuate general area (50 foot radius or as directed by your facility's emergency response plan)
when: any quantity is spilled. Deny access to unnecessary and unprotected personnel. Remain up-wind from spilled
material. If conditions warrant, increase the size of the evacuation.
