Not flammable. For small fires, use dry chemical or carbon dioxide. For large fires, flood fire area with water from a distance. Do not get solid streams of water on spilled material. Move container from fire area if this can be done without risk. Cool containers exposed to flames with water until well after fire is out. (EPA, 1998)

In case of fire in the surroundings, use appropriate extinguishing media. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water. NO direct contact with water.

Fresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer for medical attention.

Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. Refer for medical attention .

First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.

Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer for medical attention .

· 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.

· Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing.

Warning: Titanium tetrachloride is extremely corrosive. Caution is advised.

General First Aid:

· Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).

TIH (Toxic Inhalation Hazard) - Term used to describe gases and volatile liquids that are toxic when inhaled. Some are TIH materials themselves, e.g., chlorine, and some release TIH gases when spilled in water, e.g., chlorosilanes. [ERG 2016].

Will react with water. Use water spray if necessary to keep containers cool.

If material involved in fire: Use dry chemical, dry sand, or carbon dioxide. Do not use water on material itself. If large quantities of combustibles are involved, use water in flooding quantities as spray and fog. Use water spray to knock-down vapors. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water. Apply water from as far a distance as possible.

KEEP TIGHTLY CLOSED.

PROTECT AGAINST PHYSICAL DAMAGE. OUTSIDE OR DETACHED STORAGE IS PREFERABLE.

SRP: At the time of review, criteria for land treatment or burial (sanitary landfill) disposal practices are subject to significant revision. Prior to implementing land disposal of waste residue (including waste sludge), consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices.

/SRP: For lab quantity material only & perform in laboratory hood./ Transfer into an evaporating dish containing sodium bicarbonate. Spray with ammonia (6M-NH4OH) while stirring and then spread with crushed ice. Continue spraying with ammonia until the smoke of ammonium chloride partly subsides and add iced water while stirring. Neutralize and slowly transfer the mixture into a drain with running water.

Evacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Personal protection: complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Ventilation. Do NOT use water. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable acid resistant containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in dry sand or inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.

SRP: Contaminated protective clothing should be segregated in such a manner so that there is no direct personal contact by personnel who handle, dispose, or clean the clothing. Quality assurance to ascertain the completeness of the cleaning procedures should be implemented before the decontaminated protective clothing is returned for reuse by the workers. Contaminated clothing should not be taken home at end of shift, but should remain at employee's place of work for cleaning.

SRP: The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses in industry is conflicting. The benefit or detrimental effects of wearing contact lenses depend not only upon the substance, but also on factors including the form of the substance, characteristics and duration of the exposure, the uses of other eye protection equipment, and the hygiene of the lenses. However, there may be individual substances whose irritating or corrosive properties are such that the wearing of contact lenses would be harmful to the eye. In those specific cases, contact lenses should not be worn. In any event, the usual eye protection equipment should be worn even when contact lenses are in place.

If material not involved in fire: Keep material out of water sources and sewers. Build dikes to contain flow as necessary. Use water spray to knock down vapors. Do not use water on material itself. Neutralize spilled material with crushed limestone, soda ash, or lime.

Personnel protection: Avoid breathing vapors. Keep upwind. ... Do not handle broken packages unless wearing appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash away any material which may have contacted the body with copious amounts of water or soap and water. If contact with the material anticipated, wear appropriate chemical protective clothing.

Evacuation: If material leaking (not on fire) consider evacuation from downwind area based on amount of material spilled, location and weather conditions.

Chronic toxicity and oncogenicity were evaluated in groups of male and female Crl:CD(SD)BR rats (100/sex/group) receiving whole body exposure to titanium tetrachloride at nominal concentrations of 0, 0.01, 1.0, or 10mg/m3 in a dynamic air flow chamber, 6 hours/day, 5 days/week for two years beginning at age 35 days. No statistically significant differences between treatments groups and controls were evident for: mean body weights, mean body weight gain and mortality. At 18-months, high dose female and male rats exhibited a significant increase in neutrophils and a decrease in lymphocytes when compared to controls. High dose males also showed a statistically significant decrease in erythrocytes and increases in mean cell volume, mean cell hemoglobin and serum bilirubin. Clinical observations revealed a greater incidence of irregular respirations and abnormal lung noises early in the study for male treatment groups relative to the control groups, with an evident dose response-relationship. Absolute and relative lung weights of high dose groups at 1-year and 2-year sacrifices were significantly greater than for controls. Absolute kidney weights of high dose males were significantly decreased relative to controls at the 3-month and 2-year sacrifice. Gross pathology and histological examination of treated rats revealed a dose-related accumulation of the test article within the respiratory tract. Histology revealed an exposure-related increase in the incidence of rhinitis in all treatment groups, with Type-II pneumocytes and hyperplasia observed in mid- and high-dose groups. Other histopathological effects of treatment observed in high dose animals were foamy macrophage infiltration, cholesterol granulomas with collagen fiber deposition, alveolar proteinosis and alveolar bronchiolarization. Cystic keratinizing squamous cell carcinomas were observed primarily in high dose groups.

A cross-sectional survey of respiratory disease among 209 titanium metal production workers /was conducted/. Work in areas where there was exposure to titanium tetrachloride & titanium dioxide particulates was associated with reductions in ventilatory capacity. Pleural disease (plaques & diffuse thickening) was present in the chest radiographs of 17% of the subjects & was associated with the duration of work in titanium manufacturing. It was also associated with past asbestos exposure. After control for asbestos exposure, it remained associated with titanium manufacturing. The findings are consistent with the hypothesis that titanium tetrachloride & titanium dioxide particulates may be associated with a reduction in ventilatory capacity & that the overall process of titanium manufacturing may be associated with unexpected pleural disease.
