- Danger
- Pictograms
- GHS05 — Corrosion
- Hazard statements
- H290 May be corrosive to metals. H314 Causes severe skin burns and eye damage.
- Precautionary statements
- P234 Keep only in original packaging. P260 Do not breathe dust. P280 Wear protective gloves, clothing, eye and face protection. P301+P330+P331 IF SWALLOWED: Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting.

§ 3Composition / Information on Ingredients▾
- Mixture
- Engineered bulk industrial chemicals based caustic soda flakes & pearls (sodium hydroxide).
- Carrier
- Bulk Industrial Chemicals compatible polymer.
- Sodium hydroxide (CAS 1310-73-2)
- ≥ 99 %
§ 4First Aid Measures▾
- Inhalation
- Move to fresh air. Get medical advice if discomfort persists.
- Skin contact
- Immediately remove contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with copious amounts of water for at least 30 minutes. Seek immediate medical attention. Risk of severe chemical burns.
- Eye contact
- Rinse cautiously with water for at least 15 minutes, holding eyelids open. Remove contact lenses if present. Seek immediate medical attention.
- Ingestion
- DO NOT induce vomiting. Rinse mouth and give plenty of water. Seek immediate medical attention.
- Hot melt burns
- For pellet-form products processed at melt temperature: cool affected area with cold water. Do NOT peel solidified polymer from skin — seek medical attention.
§ 5Fire-Fighting Measures▾
- Suitable extinguishing media
- Dry chemical, CO2, alcohol-resistant foam. AVOID water on dry product (exothermic reaction).
- Unsuitable media
- Water jet on dry material — generates heat and may splatter caustic solution.
- Special hazards
- Combustion may produce CO, CO2 and dense black smoke. Polymer melt drips during fire.
- PPE for firefighters
- Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and full protective gear.
§ 6Accidental Release Measures▾
- Personal precautions
- Wear PPE per Section 8. Avoid generating dust. Ventilate area.
- Environmental precautions
- Prevent entry into drains, waterways or soil. Notify authorities if significant release.
- Cleanup
- Carefully sweep or vacuum (HEPA). Neutralize residue with dilute acid. Collect in labelled hazardous-waste container.
§ 7Handling & Storage▾
- Handling
- Use only in well-ventilated areas. Wear full chemical-resistant PPE. Add to water slowly — never the reverse.
- Storage
- Store in tightly closed original container in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Segregate from acids, metals (Al, Zn), and ammonium salts.
- Incompatible materials
- Acids, aluminum, zinc, tin, ammonium compounds, organic halogens, nitromethane.
§ 8Exposure Controls / Personal Protection▾
- Engineering controls
- Local exhaust ventilation at material transfer and melt-processing points. Maintain dust below regional OEL.
- Respiratory protection
- N95 / P2 dust mask minimum; full-face respirator if dust exposure exceeds OEL.
- Hand protection
- Chemical-resistant gloves (neoprene, nitrile, butyl rubber).
- Eye protection
- Safety glasses with side shields; chemical splash goggles when handling powders or molten material.
