Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating oxides of sulfur and nitrogen may form in fire. (USCG, 1999)

Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating oxides of sulfur and nitrogen may form in fire. (USCG, 1999)

Not combustible. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire.

Inhalation of dust causes irritation of nose and throat. Ingestion of large doses causes vomiting, extreme cerebral excitement, convulsions, and death in 10-48 hrs.; chronic poisoning can cause flu-like symptoms, skin rashes, weakness, fatigue, vertigo, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, confusion. Contact with eyes causes irritation. Prolonged contact with skin may produce various skin eruptions, dizziness, cramps, nausea, and mild to severe disturbance of the nervous system. (USCG, 1999)

Intensity of effects will vary with concentration of the solution. Inhalation of vapor causes irritation of nose and throat. Ingestion of large doses causes vomiting, extreme cerebral excitement, convulsions, and death in 10-48 hrs.; chronic poisoning can cause flu-like symptoms, skin rashes, weakness, fatigue, vertigo, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, confusion. Contact with eyes causes irritation. Prolonged contact with skin may produce various skin eruptions, dizziness, cramps, nausea, and mild to severe disturbance of the nervous system. (USCG, 1999)

May cause convulsions; Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause CNS effects and hypothyroidism; [ICSC] Not irritating to skin or eye of rabbits; Causes sensitization in human and guinea pig studies; [IUCLID] Search for (540-72-7[EC/RN Number]) AND (allergic OR dermatitis OR sensitizer OR sensitization): no results; [PubMed] Dust is irritating to eyes, nose, and throat; Inhalation may cause systemic poisoning; Prolonged skin exposure may cause rash, dizziness, cramps, and slight to severe nervous system disturbances; [CHRIS] Oral LD50's (rat) range from 232 to 1,180 mg/kg; Causes convulsions in lethal-dose studies of rats, mice, and guinea pigs; [RTECS] May cause irritation; Targets CNS, cardiovascular system, and thyroid; Toxic by inhalation; Harmful by ingestion and skin absorption; [Aldrich MSDS] Cyanide is detoxified in the body when it is combined with sulfur to form thiocyanate. [Ford, p. 705] Thiocyanate can competitively inhibit the entry of iodide into the thyroid gland and cause hypothyroidism and goiters. [Goldfrank, p. 1680] See CYANIDES.

Nitric acid violently oxidized a thiocyanate solution [Bretherick 1979 p. 121]. Caution should be exercised in treating a thiocyanate with an oxidizing agent such as a peroxide or chlorate as such mixtures have been known to explode. Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating oxides of sulfur and nitrogen may form in fire (USCG, 1999). Carbonyl sulfide is produced in a violent reaction by the mixture of sulfuric acid and sodium thiocyanate.
