SECTION 4: First aid measures
Description of necessary first-aid measures
Fresh air, rest. Fresh air, rest.
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.
Rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible).
Rinse mouth. Give one or two glasses of water to drink.
Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
Inhalation may cause dryness of throat, coughing, constriction in chest, and headache. Ingestion may cause salivation, vomiting, abdominal pains, or diarrhea. Contact with eyes causes irritation. (USCG, 1999)
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand-valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR as necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. Cadmium and Related Compounds

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Decomposes on heating. This produces toxic fumes of cadmium and sulfur oxides.
Chemical stability
no data available
Possibility of hazardous reactions
CADMIUM SULFATE acts as a weakly acidic inorganic salt, which is soluble in water. The resulting solutions contain moderate concentrations of hydrogen ions and have pH's of less than 7.0. They react as acids to neutralize bases. These neutralizations generate heat, but less or far less than is generated by neutralization of inorganic acids, inorganic oxoacids, and carboxylic acid. They usually do not react as either oxidizing agents or reducing agents but such behavior is not impossible. Many of these compounds catalyze organic reactions.
Conditions to avoid

Incompatible materials
no data available
Hazardous decomposition products
When heated to decomp, emits very toxic fumes of /cadmium and sulfur oxides/.

SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
