SECTION 4: First aid measures
Description of necessary first-aid measures
Fresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Refer for medical attention.
Remove contaminated clothes. 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.
Give one or two glasses of water to drink. Refer for medical attention .
Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
Probable oral lethal dose for humans is between 5 and 50 mg/kg or between 7 drops and 1 teaspoonful for a 70 kg (150 lb.) person. Toxicity is about the same magnitude as pentavalent arsenic. A person with chronic respiratory disease is at greater risk when exposed to this substance. (EPA, 1998)
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 if necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on the 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. Poisons A and B
SECTION 5: Firefighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media: Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical
Container may explode in heat of fire. When heated to decomposition, it emits acrid smoke and fumes of vanadium oxides. Material is not flammable but it may increase the intensity of the fire when in contact with combustible materials. Avoid chlorine trifluoride; lithium; peroxyformic acid; and calcium, sulfur, water complexes. Hazardous polymerization may not occur. (EPA, 1998)
Special protective actions for fire-fighters
In case of fire in the surroundings, use appropriate extinguishing media.

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Upon heating, toxic fumes are formed. Decomposes on heating. This produces toxic fumes. Reacts with combustible substances.
Chemical stability
Stable under recommended storage conditions.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Not combustible but will increase the intensity of an existing fire. ... Vanadium pentoxide itself does not burn, but dust may increase the intensity of fire when in contact with combustible materials.VANADIUM PENTOXIDE is acidic in many reactions. Hence, soluble in bases. [Kirk-Othmer]. Can react with ClF3, Li, peroxyformic acid and (Ca+S+H2O). Also reacts with strong acids. (NTP, 1992)

Other Information
Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is suggested.The symptoms of lung oedema 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.Immediate administration of an appropriate inhalation therapy by a doctor or a person authorized by him/her, should be considered.
