10192-30-0

Ammonium bisulfite is colorless crystals which are soluble in water. AMMONIUM BISULFITE, SOLID(10192-30-0) is noncombustible. AMMONIUM BISULFITE, SOLID(10192-30-0) is corrosive to aluminum. AMMONIUM BISULFITE, SOLID(10192-30-0) is a strong irritant to skin and mucous membranes. AMMONIUM BISULFITE, SOLID(10192-30-0) is toxic by skin absorption.

Inorganic reducing agents, such as AMMONIUM BISULFITE, react with oxidizing agents to generate heat and products that may be flammable, combustible, or otherwise reactive. Their reactions with oxidizing agents may be violent. Sulfites and hydrosulfites (dithionites) can react explosively with strong oxidizing agents. Sulfites generate gaseous sulfur dioxide in contact with oxidizing acids and nonoxidizing acids.

Water soluble.

TOXIC; inhalation, ingestion or skin contact with material may cause severe injury or death. Contact with molten substance may cause severe burns to skin and eyes. Avoid any skin contact. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.

Used as a preservative, in drilling fluids, making industrial explosives, hair waving and bleaching agents; for making other chemicals. A source of sulfur in liquid fertilizers.

Special Hazards of Combustion Products: None

Move victim to fresh air. Call 911 or emergency medical service. Give artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; give artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of contact with substance, immediately flush skin or eyes with running water for at least 20 minutes. For minor skin contact, avoid spreading material on unaffected skin. Keep victim warm and quiet. Effects of exposure (inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact) to substance may be delayed. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions to protect themselves. Medical observation is recommended for 24 to 48 hours after breathing overexposure, as pulmonary edema may be delayed. As first aid for pulmonary edema, a doctor or authorized paramedic may consider administering a drug or other inhalation therapy.

Sulfites react explosively on contact with oxidizers. Reacts with acids, acid fumes releasing sulfur dioxide. Reacts with water. Corrosive to metals.

Ammonium bisulfite is a white crystalline solid or colorless to yellow solution.

Ammonium sulfite is a colorless to yellow crystalline (sand-like or sugar-like) solid, normally sold or used in a 40% solution.

Incinerate. It may be possible to dispose of waste material at a municipal facility if treated, neutralized, and oxidized.

Preservative.
