SECTION 4: First aid measures
Description of necessary first-aid measures
Fresh air, rest.
Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
Rinse mouth.
Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
Inhalation causes irritation of nose and throat. Ingestion causes gastrointestinal disturbances. Dust irritates eyes. (USCG, 1999)
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Basic treatment: Establish a patent airway. Suction if necessary. Watch for signs of respiratory insufficiency and assist ventilations if necessary. Administer oxygen by nonrebreather mask at 10 to 15 L/min. Monitor for signs of pulmonary edema and treat if necessary . Monitor for shock and treat if necessary . For eye contamination, flush eyes immediately with water. Irrigate each eye continuously with normal saline during transport . Do not use emetics. For ingestion, rinse mouth and administer 5 mg/kg up to 200 mL of water for dilution if the patent can swallow, has a strong gag reflex, and does not drool . Do not attempt to neutralize. Ammonia and related compounds

Special protective actions for fire-fighters
In case of fire in the surroundings, use appropriate extinguishing media.
SECTION 6: Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal protection: particulate filter respirator adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Sweep spilled substance into covered containers. Then wash away with plenty of water.
Environmental precautions
Personal protection: particulate filter respirator adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Sweep spilled substance into covered containers. Then wash away with plenty of water.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Environmental considerations - Land spill: Dig a pit, pond, lagoon, or holding area to contain liquid or solid material. /SRP: If time permits, pits, ponds, lagoons, soak holes, or holding areas should be sealed with an impermeable flexible membrane liner./ Cover solids with a plastic sheet to prevent dissolving in rain or fire fighting water.
SECTION 7: Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Dry. Well closed. Separated from strong oxidants and acids.Storage temp: ambient

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Decomposes above 160°C . This produces ammonia, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides. The solution in water is a weak acid. Attacks mild steel. Contact with hot water may cause formation of large amounts of steam. Reacts with acids and strong oxidants.
Chemical stability
Hydrolysed at higher temperatures and in acidic conditions.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Not flammableAMMONIUM SULFAMATE is incompatible with the following: Acids, hot water [Note: Elevated temperatures cause a highly exothermic reaction with water.] (NIOSH, 2016).
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials
In hot acid solution this material can undergo spontaneous hydrolysis, liberating much heat.
Hazardous decomposition products
Toxic gases and vapors (such as ... carbon monoxide) may be released when ammonium sulfamate decomposes.

Persistence and degradability
Strains of aureobasidum (pullularia) pullulans, aphalosporium acremonium, & 2 unidentified species of achromobacter & flavobacterium used sulfamic acid (sodium salt) as source of nitrogen. both fungi & bacteria converted sulfamate to sulfate in approx equimolar prop to amt of nitrogen assimilated.
Bioaccumulative potential
Food chain concn potential: none
Mobility in soil
From its lack of response to soil type and its behavior in field plots ... /it was/ concluded that /ammonium sulfamate/ is not retained in soil, but moves with soil moisture like chlorate.
Other adverse effects
no data available
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
