2 Sodium Thiosulfate, 1% (w/v) Page Number: 2 Section 4. First Aid Measures Eye Contact Skin Contact Serious Skin Contact Check for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Cold water may be used. Get medical attention if irritation occurs. Wash with soap and water. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. Get medical attention if irritation develops. Cold water may be used. Inhalation Serious Inhalation If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention. Ingestion Serious Ingestion Do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If large quantities of this material are swallowed, call a physician immediately. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. Section 5. Fire and Explosion Data Flammability of the Product Auto-Ignition Temperature Flash Points Flammable Limits Products of Combustion Fire Hazards in Presence of Various Substances Explosion Hazards in Presence of Various Substances Fire Fighting Media and Instructions Fire Hazards Explosion Hazards Non-flammable. Non-explosive in presence of open flames and sparks, of shocks. An explosion may occur if triturated with nitrates, chlorates, or permanganates. (Sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate) Section 6. Accidental Release Measures Small Spill Large Spill Dilute with water and mop up, or absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and dispose of according to local and regional authority requirements. Absorb with an inert material and put the spilled material in an appropriate waste disposal. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and allow to evacuate through the sanitary system.

Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Section 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Engineering Controls Personal Protection Personal Protection in Case of a Large Spill Exposure Limits Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors below their respective threshold limit value. Safety glasses or Splash goggles. Synthetic apron or Lab Coat. Gloves (impervious). Respiratory protection is not needed for normal handling and if ventilation is adequate. If general ventilation is not adequate or local exhaust (hood) is not available or if handling of material results in generation mist or vapor a vapor respirator may be needed. Splash goggles. Full suit. Boots. Gloves. Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist BEFORE handling this product. Section 9.

Stability and Data Stability Instability Temperature Conditions of Instability Incompatibility with various substances Corrosivity The product is stable. Incompatible materials Slightly reactive to reactive with oxidizing agents, acids, alkalis. Non-corrosive in presence of glass.

4 Sodium Thiosulfate, 1% (w/v) Page Number: 4 It is a strong reducing agent and can react with oxidizers. Reacts with acids to release sulfur dioxide. Sodium Thiosulfate pentahydrate dissolves in its own water of hydation; it effloresces in warm dry air. Sodium Thiosulfate pentahydrate loses water at 1 deg. C. It is incompatible with iodine, acids, lead, mercury, and silver salts (e.g. silver nitrate), halogens. Hygroscopic; keep container tightly closed. Protect from moisture (Sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate) Corrosivity Polymerization Will not occur. Section 11. Toxicological Information Routes of Entry Toxicity to Animals Chronic Effects on Humans Other Toxic Effects on Humans Toxicity to Animals Chronic Effects on Humans other Toxic Effects on Humans Absorbed through skin. Eye contact. LD5: LC5: Slightly hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant), of ingestion. Non-permeator by skin. Non-hazardous in case of inhalation. Acute Potential Health Effects: Skin: It may cause skin irritation. Eyes: It may cause eye irritation. Inhalation: May cause upper respiratory tract and mucous membrane irritation. Ingestion: Sodium Thiosulfate is an agent with a low order of toxicity. Ingestion of large doses may cause gastrointestinal irritation disturbances with nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramping, diarrhea, metabolic acidosis, and hypernatremia. May also affect respiration (cyanosis, respiratory stimulation), cardiovascular(hypotension), behavior (ataxia, convulsions) Chronic Potential Health Effects: Skin: Prolonged or repeated skin contact with Sodium Thiosulfate may allergic dermatitis, and irritation. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. Section 12. Ecological Information Ecotoxicity BOD5 and COD Products of Biodegradation Toxicity of the Products of Biodegradation the Products of Biodegradation Possibly hazardous short term degradation products are not likely. However, long term degradation products may arise. The product itself and its products of degradation are not toxic. Section 13. Disposal Considerations Waste Disposal Waste must be disposed of in accordance with federal, state and local environmental control regulations.
