A. Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) of NH3 DESCRIPTION CHEMICAL NAME SYNONYMS FORMULA : Ammonia, Anhydrous : Ammonia : NH3

CHEMICAL FAMILY : Inorganic MOL. WT. COMPOSITION : 17.03(NH3) : 99+% Ammonia

STATEMENT OF HEALTH HAZARD HAZARD DESCRIPTION: Ammonia is an irritant and corrosive to the skin, eyes, respiratory tract and mucous membranes. May cause severe burns to the eyes, lungs and skin. Skin and respiratory related diseases could be aggravated by exposure

EMERGENCY TREATMENT EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE: Eye: lacrimation, edema, or blindness may occur. Skin: irritation, corrosive burns, blister formation may result. Contact with liquid will freeze the tissue and produce a caustic burn. Inhalation: acute exposure may result in severe irritation of the respiratory tract, bronchospasm, edema or respiratory arrest. Ingestion: Symptoms similar to Inhalation. Lung irritation and pulmonary edema may occur. Extreme exposure may result in death from spasm, inflammation or edema. EMERGENCY AID: Eye: flush with copious amounts of water for 15 minutes. Eyelids should be held apart and away from eyeball for thorough rinsing. Skin: flush with copious amounts of water for 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Exercise caution when removing contaminated

clothing as it may be frozen to the skin. Do not rub or apply ointment on affected area. Inhalation: remove to fresh air. Administer oxygen or artificial respiration if necessary. Ingestion: if conscious, give large amounts of water to drink or may drink orange juice or citrus to counteract ammonia. Do NOT induce vomiting. NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Lung injury and pulmonary edema may appear as a delayed phenomenon. Supportive treatment with necessary ventilation actions, including oxygen, may warrant consideration.

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD SPECIAL FIRE-FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Must wear protective clothing and a positive pressure SCBA. Stop source if possible. Cool fire exposed containers with water spray. Stay upwind and use water spray to knock down vapor and dilute. UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Outdoors, ammonia is not generally a fire hazard. Indoors, in confined areas, ammonia may be a fire hazard, especially if oil and other combustible materials are present. If relief valves are inoperative, heat-exposed storage containers may become explosion hazards. Ammonia contact with chemicals such as mercury, chlorine, iodine, bromine, silver oxide, or hypochlorites can form explosive

compounds. Special hazards with chlorine to form chloramine gas, also a primary skin irritant and sensitizer. Combustion may form toxic nitrogen oxides.

CHEMICAL REACTIVITY STABILITY: Stable at room temperature. Ammonia will react exothermically with acids and water. CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Explosive or violent reactions can occur from mixing ammonia with halogens, strong oxidizers, strong mineral acids, Nitric Acid, Fluorine, Nitrogen Oxide, etc Sensitive explosive mixtures can form when mixed with air and hydrocarbons, Ethanol and Silver Nitrate, Chlorine, etc. Explosive products are formed by the reaction of ammonia with Silver Chloride, Silver Oxide, Bromine, Iodine, Gold, Mercury, Tellurium Halides, etc. Ammonia is incompatible or has hazardous reactions with Silver, Acetaldehyde, Acrolein, Boron, Halogens, Perchlorate, Chloric Acid, Chloric Monoxide, Chlorites, Nitrogen Tetroxide, Tin, Sulfur, etc. Ammonia has a corrosive reaction with galvanized surfaces, copper, brass, bronze, aluminum alloys, mercury, gold, and silver. This is a partial list of incompatibilities. HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Hydrogen and nitrogen gases above 450C (842F). Decomposition temperatures may be lowered by contact with certain metals.

SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES STEPS TO BE TAKEN: Wear protective clothing and respiratory protection, see Protective Equipment. Stop source if possible. If exposure concerns are present, stay upwind and use water spray downwind of leak source to absorb ammonia gas and dilute. Contain diluted run-off from drains, sewers, water systems, etc CAUTION: ADDING WATER DIRECTLY TO LIQUID SPILLS WILL INCREASE VOLATILIZATION OF AMMONIA, THUS INCREASING POSSIBILITY OF EXPOSURE. WASTE DISPOSAL: Listed as a hazardous substance under CWA (40 CFR 1164.40 CFR 117.3 Reportable Quantity 100 lbs. OR 45.4kg) Classified as a

hazardous waste under RCRA (40 CFR 261.32 Corrosive # D002). Comply with all Federal, State and local regulations. Suitably diluted product may be applied to agricultural land as fertilizer. Keep spill from entering streams, lakes or any water systems.

SPECIAL PROTECTION AND PROCEDURES RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: MSHA/NIOSH approved respiratory

protection that consists of a full face gas mask and canisters effective for anhydrous ammonia that enable use for entry and escape in emergencies. Refer to 29 CFR 1910.134 for requirements and selection. A positive pressure SCBA is required for entry into ammonia atmospheres at or above 300 ppm. VENTILATION: Local exhaust sufficient to keep ammonia gas below Permissible Exposure Limits. PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Splash-proof, chemical safety goggles, rubber gloves and boots should be worn to prevent contact. Face shield can be worn over the goggles as added protection. Respiratory protection and cotton work clothes are recommended. Refer to 29 CFR 1910.132 to 1910.136 for requirements. A positive pressure SCBA is required for entry into ammonia atmospheres at or above 300 ppm.

SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS STORAGE AND HANDLING: Store in a cool, well-ventilated area with containers tightly closed. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.111 prescribes handling and storage requirements for anhydrous ammonia as a hazardous material. WORK-PLACE PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Protective equipment should be stored near, but outside of ammonia area. Water for first aid, such as an eyewash station and safety shower, is to be kept available in the immediate vicinity. See 29 CFR 1910.141 for workplace requirements. DISPOSAL: Ammonia is listed as a hazardous substance under FWPCA. It is classified as RCRA hazardous waste due to corrosivity, See WASTE DISPOSAL. PERSONAL: Use protective equipment as needed. Do not wear contact lenses. Avoid unnecessary exposure.
