Physical DescriptionSodium methylate is a white amorphous powder. It reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide, a corrosive material, and methyl alcohol, a flammable liquid. The heat from this reaction may be sufficient to ignite surrounding combustible material or the sodium methylate itself if the water is present in only small amounts. It is used to process edible fats and oils, and to make other chemicals.CBIDry PowderOther SolidWhite hygroscopic solid[ICSC] White to yellowish solidCommercial products are powders or solutions in methanol[Reference #2] White powder[Aldrich MSDS]WHITE HYGROSCOPIC POWDER.

Reactivity AlertsStrong Reducing Agent
BrandbekämpfungExcerpt from ERG Guide 138 [Substances - Water-Reactive (Emitting Flammable Gases)]:NO water. NO hydrous agents. Use dry powder, dry sand. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water. NO direct contact with water.
Erste-Hilfe-MaßnahmenFresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer immediately for medical attention.First rinse with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, then remove contaminated clothes and rinse again. Refer immediately for medical attention.Rinse with plenty of water (remove contact lenses if easily possible). Refer immediately for medical attention.Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer immediately for medical attention.
Freisetungsmaßnahmen· CALL 911. Then call emergency response telephone number on shipping paper. If shipping paper not available or no answer, refer to appropriate telephone number listed on the inside back cover.· ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames) from immediate area.
Erste HilfeGet medical attention at once following all exposures to this compound.General First Aid:
Sichere LagerungFireproof. Separated from strong oxidants, acids, metals and food and feedstuffs. Dry. Cool. Well closed. Store in an area having corrosion resistant concrete floor. Store in an area without drain or sewer access.
Expositionsschutz und Persönliche Schutzausrüstung· Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).
BrandbekämpfungsverfahrenIf material on fire or involved in fire: Do not extinguish fire unless flow can be stopped. Use "alcohol" foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water. Apply water from as far a distance as possible.

ICSC Environmental DataThis substance may be hazardous to the environment. Special attention should be given to aquatic organisms.
Human Toxicity Excerpts/SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS/ Solution contains /the hydrolysis product/ methyl alcohol, and is toxic and corrosive to tissue./SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS/ Ingestion causes irritation of mouth and stomach./SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS/ Corrosive. The substance is corrosive to the eyes, the skin and the respiratory tract. Inhalation of dusts may cause lung edema. The effects may be delayed.
Non-Human Toxicity Excerpts/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ In a rabbit eye irritation test, a 30% solution in methanol was corrosive./LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ A 30% solution in methanol was corrosive to rabbit skin./LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ Corrosive in a rabbit skin irritation test. An 80% aqueous preparation was examined. Since sodium methoxide hydrolyzes rapidly in water to NaOH and methanol, the corrosive action was the result of the NaOH.
Antidote and Emergency TreatmentThe symptoms of lung edema 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.
