SECTION 5: Firefighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media

Excerpt from ERG Guide 112 [Explosives* - Division 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 or 1.5]: CARGO FIRE: DO NOT fight fire when fire reaches cargo! Cargo may EXPLODE! Stop all traffic and clear the area for at least 1600 meters (1 mile) in all directions and let burn. Do not move cargo or vehicle if cargo has been exposed to heat. TIRE OR VEHICLE FIRE: Use plenty of water - FLOOD it! If water is not available, use CO2, dry chemical or dirt. If possible, and WITHOUT RISK, use unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles from maximum distance to prevent fire from spreading to cargo area. Pay special attention to tire fires as re-ignition may occur. Stand by, at a safe distance, with extinguisher ready for possible re-ignition. (ERG, 2016)

Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours.Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment.Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation.Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.

Environmental precautions

Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up

Collect and arrange disposal. Keep the chemical in suitable and closed containers for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with appropriate laws and regulations.

SECTION 7: Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Store the container tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Store apart from foodstuff containers or incompatible materials.

SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment (PPE)

Eye/face protection

Wear tightly fitting safety goggles with side-shields conforming to EN 166(EU) or NIOSH (US).

Skin protection

Wear fire/flame resistant and impervious clothing. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.

Respiratory protection

If the exposure limits are exceeded, irritation or other symptoms are experienced, use a full-face respirator.

Thermal hazards

SECTION 9: Physical and chemical properties and safety characteristics

Physical state：
1H-tetrazole is an odorless white to light-yellow crystalline powder. Mp:1 55-157°C. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic oxides of nitrogen fumes. Can explode if exposed to shock or heat from friction or fire. The primary hazard is from blast effect where the entire load can explode instantaneously and not from flying projectiles and fragments.

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

Soluble in water (23 g/100 mL at 20°C) Reacts slowly with water (moisture) with release of corrosive gases (ammonia, nitrogen oxides).

Chemical stability

no data available

Possibility of hazardous reactions

1-H-TETRAZOLE is stable at normal temperature and pressure but decomposes rapidly and explosively if heated above its melting point of 155-157° C (Chem. Rev 1947, 41, 5). Presents an extreme risk of explosion by shock, friction, fire or other sources of ignition. Reacts violently with strong oxidizers. Reacts with acidic materials (strong acids, acid anhydrides and acid chlorides) to release heat and toxic and corrosive gases. Reacts with some active metals to give new materials that are shock-sensitive explosives. Can react exothermically with reducing agents. Heating or burning releases toxic and corrosive nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide. [MSDS Document number : 4330220A] Soluble in water. Soluble in acetonitrile. Dilute solutions (2-3% by mass) of 1-H-TETRAZOLE in acetonitrile are used in biochemistry for DNA synthesis.
