- CAS number: 7727-54-0
- EC number: 231-786-5
- Concentration: 100%
SECTION 4: First aid measures
Description of necessary first-aid measures
Fresh air, rest. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer for medical attention.
First rinse with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, then remove contaminated clothes and rinse again.
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
Give one or two glasses of water to drink. Refer for medical attention .
Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
Inhalation produces slight toxic effects. Contact with dust irritates eyes and causes skin rash. (USCG, 1999)
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand-valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR as necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. Inorganic acids and related compounds
SECTION 5: Firefighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
If material involved in fire: Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water. Use water in flooding quantities as fog. Apply water from as far a distance as possible. Extinguish fire using agent suitable for type of surrounding fire.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Toxic oxides of nitrogen and sulfuric acid fumes may form in fire. Behavior in Fire: Decomposes with loss of oxygen that increases intensity of fire (USCG, 1999)
Special protective actions for fire-fighters
In case of fire in the surroundings, use appropriate extinguishing media. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
The substance is a strong oxidant. It reacts with combustible and reducing materials. Decomposes on heating. This produces toxic and corrosive fumes including ammonia, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides. If in solution, reacts violently with iron, powdered aluminium and silver salts. The solution in water is a medium strong acid.
Chemical stability
no data available
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Material itself does not burn or burns with difficulty.AMMONIUM PERSULFATE is a potent oxidizing agent. A powdered mixture with aluminum and water can explode [NFPA 491M 1991]. A mixture with sodium peroxide will explode if subjected to friction (crushing in a mortar), heating, or if a stream of carbon dioxide is passed over it [Mellor 10:464 1946-47]. Acidic solutions dissolve iron violently, [Mellor, 1947, Vol. 10, 470].
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials
A mixutre of ammonium persulfate and sodium peroxide will explode if subjected to crushing (in a mortar), heating, or if a stream of carbon dioxide is passed over it.
Hazardous decomposition products
When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of /sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides and ammonia/.

Other Information
Rinse contaminated clothing with plenty of water because of fire hazard.Anyone who has shown symptoms of asthma due to this substance should avoid all further contact.The symptoms of asthma often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort.Rest and medical observation are therefore essential.Do NOT take working clothes home.
