First Aid Measures

Ingestion
Seek medical assistance.
Inhalation
Move patient to fresh air. Monitor for respiratory distress. If cough or difficulty breathing develops, evaluate for respiratory tract irritation, bronchitis, or pneumonitis. Administer oxygen and assist ventilation as required. Treat bronchospasm with beta2 agonist and corticosteroid aerosols.
Skin
Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of contact with substance, wipe from skin immediately. Flush with running water for at least 20 minutes.
Eyes
Irrigate exposed eyes with copious amounts of tepid water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation, pain, swelling, lacrimation, or photophobia persist, the patient should be seen in a health care facility.

Handling and Storage

Storage
Keep containers tightly closed in a well ventilated area away from food products. Keep away from heat and water. Stable unless exposed to moisture, toxic phosphine gas may then be released and collect in closed spaces.
Handling
All chemicals should be considered hazardous. Avoid direct physical contact. Use appropriate, approved safety equipment. Untrained individuals should not handle this chemical or its container. Handling should occur in a chemical fume hood.

Hazards Identification

Inhalation
Cough, excessive sputum production, and dyspnea have been noted. Delayed onset of pulmonary edema may be noted. Cyanosis and ards may be noted.
Skin
See Inhalation.
Eyes
Phosphine has an irritant effect on the mucous membranes of the nose, mouth, throat, and respiratory tract.
Ingestion
Nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea may occur.
Hazards
When heated to decomposition, it emits toxic fumes of phosphorus and zinc oxides. Irritating oxides of phosphorus may be formed in fires. May ignite in presence of moisture. Contact with water produces flammable gas. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. Decomposed slowly by water giving off phosphine, a flammable poison gas. Reacts violently with concentrated sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and other oxidizing agents. Reacts with hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid with the evolution of spontaneously flammable phosphine. May ignite in the presence of moisture, or evolve flammable gas. Stable unless exposed to moisture; toxic phosphine gas may then be released and collected in closed spaces.

Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

Personal Protection
Use NIOSH certified respirator, cotton gloves acceptable but rubber or vinyl. Preferred; wear chemical safety spectacles, cotton overalls, safety shoes and hard hat. Wear appropriate chemical protective boots, protective gloves, and goggles.
Respirators
Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).
Exposure Effects
Abnormally low blood pressure, shock, and either rapid heart rate or low heart rate occur commonly. Acute exposure may result in fatigue, headache, drowsiness, dizziness, paresthesias, CNS depression leading to coma, and neuropsychiatric manifestations. Seizures are not uncommon after acute exposure. Restlessness and anxiety were common symptoms noted following acute aluminum phosphide ingestion. No data were available to assess the teratogenic potential of this agent. <br>No data were available to assess the potential effects of exposure to this agent during pregnancy or lactation. <br>In experimental animals, zinc phosphide induced a high percentage of abnormal sperm.

Fire Fighting Measures

Fire Fighting
Wear boots, protective gloves, and goggles. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus when fighting fires involving this material. Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind; keep out of low areas. Move container from fire area if you can do so without risk.Do not use water or foam. Small fires, use dry chemical, soda ash or lime. Large fires, withdraw from area and let burn. Do not use any agent with an acid reaction (i.e., carbon dioxide or halogenated agents) as phosphine will be liberated.
Fire Potential
Nonflammable, may release flammable phosphine gas when wet.

Accidental Release Measures

Small spills/leaks
Do not use water. Keep sparks, flames, and other sources of ignition away. Keep material out of water sources and sewers. Keep material dry. Land spill: Dig a pit, pond, lagoon, holding area to contain liquid or solid material. Cover solids with a plastic sheet to prevent dissolving in rain or fire fighting water. Water spill: Neutralize with agricultural lime (CaO), crushed limestone (CaCO3), or sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3). Use mechanical dredges or lifts to remove immobilized masses of pollutants and precipitates.

Stability and Reactivity

Incompatibilities
Can react vigorously with oxidizing materials Incompatible with oxidizers such as atmospheric oxygen Incompatible with acids, particularly oxidizing acids.
Stability
Material will release phosphine gas when wet or in contact with acids and this gas is moderately explosive when exposed to flame.
Decomposition
Slowly decomposed by water giving off phosphine, a flammable poison gas. When heated to decomposition, emits toxic fumes of phosphorus oxides and zinc oxide.
Combustion Products
Irritating oxides of phosphorus may be formed in fires.
