Inhalation: Move person to fresh air, monitor breathing, seek medical care for persistent coughing or difficulty breathing
Ingestion: Rinse mouth, do not induce vomiting, give water to drink if conscious, get medical support immediately
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide
Specific Hazards: Releases toxic fumes under fire conditions, possibility of corrosive or irritating gases (hydrogen bromide, nitrogen oxides)
Special Protective Equipment: Self-contained breathing apparatus, full protective gear for firefighters
Personal Precautions: Wear appropriate personal protection (gloves, goggles, protective clothing), ventilate area
Environmental Precautions: Do not let product enter drains or surface water, avoid soil contamination
Methods for Cleanup: Absorb with inert material (vermiculite, sand), collect and dispose in suitable container, clean contaminated area with water while preventing runoff into the environment
Handling: Use with adequate ventilation, avoid direct contact with eyes, skin, or clothing, wash hands thoroughly after use, prevent dust generation
Storage: Store in tightly closed original container, keep in cool and well-ventilated space, protect from light and moisture, separate from food and incompatible substances (oxidizers, acids)
Engineering Controls: Work in fume hood or with adequate exhaust ventilation, install eyewash stations and safety showers nearby
Personal Protective Equipment: Chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile, butyl rubber), safety goggles, lab coat or apron, avoid open skin contact
Respiratory Protection: Use NIOSH-approved mask in case of dust or inadequate ventilation
Hygiene Practices: Wash hands before eating or drinking, remove contaminated clothing and wash thoroughly before reuse
Appearance: Off-white to yellowish crystalline solid or powder
Odor: Mild, slightly aromatic odor
Melting Point: Approx. 80-120°C (varies with purity)
Boiling Point: Decomposes before boiling
Solubility: Soluble in water, some organic solvents
pH: Neutral to weakly acidic (in 20% solution)
Flash Point: Not easily flammable
Density: 1.1-1.3 g/cm³ (at 20°C)
Vapor Pressure: Low, negligible at room temperature
Stability: Stable under normal temperatures and pressures, avoid strong oxidizing agents, strong acids
Decomposition: Gives off toxic fumes (hydrogen bromide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide) at high temperatures or during combustion
Hazardous Polymerization: Not expected under recommended storage and handling
Conditions to Avoid: Excessive heat, moisture ingress, light exposure may degrade material over time
Acute Toxicity: Data limited, similar ionic liquids show moderate toxicity by ingestion and inhalation
Skin/Eye Irritation: Can irritate skin and eyes on contact, may cause itching, redness, pain
Inhalation Effects: Dust or fumes can cause coughing or airway irritation, longer exposure may trigger respiratory discomfort
Ingestion Effects: Harmful if swallowed; nausea, gastrointestinal distress, drowsiness possible
Chronic Effects: No data on long-term effects, avoid repeated exposure
Carcinogenicity, Mutagenicity: Not classified as carcinogenic by IARC, ACGIH, NTP or OSHA, insufficient data for mutagenicity
Aquatic Toxicity: Potentially harmful to aquatic organisms, ionic bromide compounds may linger and disrupt water ecosystems
Persistence and Degradability: Limited data, ionic liquids may persist in soil or sediment, slow biodegradation
Bioaccumulation: Unlikely to bioaccumulate significantly, but caution warranted with large-scale spills
Mobility in Soil: High solubility increases potential to move through soil and contaminate groundwater
Other Adverse Effects: No notable ozone depletion, slight potential to disrupt microbial balance in natural water
Waste Treatment Methods: Dispose by controlled chemical waste incineration, rinse empty containers before recycling or disposal
Special Precautions: Prevent environmental contamination, follow local, regional, and national hazardous waste regulations
Do Not: Pour into drains, sewers, or waterways, avoid open dumping or uncontrolled burning
UN Number: Not assigned for small laboratory quantities, check with relevant agency for bulk shipments
Transport Hazard Class: Not regulated for road, rail, or air transport in small containers; bulk quantities may need special permits
Packing Group: Not classified
Special Precautions: Keep containers sealed, secure upright and labeled, segregate from food and incompatible materials
US Regulations: Not listed under TSCA inventory, may require reporting under SARA Title III for certain volumes
EU Regulations: Not officially classified by ECHA, follow country-specific reporting and labeling laws
Other Global Regulations: Observe standards under local chemical safety acts, workplace hazard communication rules, waste handling protocols
