Purity: Usually over 99% pure for laboratory and food purposes.
Impurities: Trace amounts of water and possibly sodium chloride depending on manufacturing process.
Main Ingredient: Disodium Succinate
Component Breakdown: No hazardous components present in significant concentrations under normal usage.
Inhalation: Move person to fresh air. Seek medical attention if irritation or breathing difficulty persists.
Eye Contact: Rinse immediately with plenty of water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do, continue rinsing. Medical attention required if symptoms persist.
Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water and give water to drink if person is conscious. No specific antidote; seek medical attention for large quantities or unusual symptoms.
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use water, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or foam. Choose appropriate agent for surrounding fire.
Special Hazards: Burning produces oxides of carbon and sodium fumes.
Protective Equipment: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear while fighting chemical fires.
Firefighting Advice: Move containers from fire area if possible and safe to do. Avoid breathing smoke, fumes, or combustion products.
Spill Cleanup: Sweep up product, avoiding creation of dust. Transfer to labeled waste container for disposal.
Personal Protection: Wear gloves, safety goggles, dust mask or respirator.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent runoff into drains, surface waters, and soil. Do not flush with water.
Handling: Handle in well-ventilated area to reduce dust exposure. Minimize generation and accumulation of dust. Use proper personal protective equipment for industrial settings.
Storage: Store in tightly closed containers, in cool, dry place. Keep away from moisture, acids, and incompatible substances. Store separately from strong oxidizing agents. Keep containers labeled and secure.
Exposure Limits: Occupational exposure limits not established for disodium succinate specifically.
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne levels low in bulk operations.
Personal Protective Equipment: Safety goggles, lab coat, gloves, and dust mask or respirator when manipulating powders.
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands after handling. Avoid drinking, eating, or smoking in work area.
