Use dry chemical, carbon dioxide or alcohol-resistant foam.
Not combustible. Many reactions may cause fire or explosion. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. Risk of fire and explosion on contact with bases, combustible substances, reducing agents, water or organic materials.
NO water. 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 of the substance with water.
Evacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Personal protection: chemical protection suit including self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Do NOT absorb in saw-dust or other combustible absorbents. Collect leaking liquid in sealable containers. Absorb remaining liquid in dry sand or inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations. Cautiously neutralize remainder with lime or soda ash.
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.
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.
NO contact with incompatible materials: See Chemical Dangers 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.
Dry. Separated from food and feedstuffs and incompatible materials. See Chemical Dangers. Store only in original packaging. Ventilation along the floor.

The vapour is heavier than air.Decomposes on heating. This produces toxic and corrosive gases including sulfur oxides. The substance is a strong oxidant. It reacts with combustible and reducing materials and organic materials. This generates fire and explosion hazard. The solution in water is a strong acid. It reacts violently with bases and is corrosive to metals. This produces flammable/explosive gas (hydrogen - see ICSC 0001). Reacts violently with water and moist air. This produces sulfuric acid. See Notes. Attacks some plastics.

The substance is very corrosive to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Corrosive on ingestion. Exposure could cause asphyxiation due to swelling in the throat. Inhalation of high concentrations may cause lung oedema, but only after initial corrosive effects on the eyes and the upper respiratory tract have become manifest. Inhalation may cause asthma-like reactions (RADS). Medical observation is indicated. See Notes.
Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis. Repeated or prolonged inhalation of the aerosol may cause effects on the lungs. Risk of tooth erosion upon repeated or prolongated exposure to an aerosol of this substance. Mists of this strong inorganic acid are carcinogenic to humans. See Notes.
A harmful contamination of the air will be reached quickly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.

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.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.

The symptoms of lung oedema 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.IARC considers mists of strong inorganic acid to be carcinogenic (group 1). However there is no information available on the carcinogenicity of other physical forms of this substance. Therefore no classification for carcinogenicity under GHS has been applied.NEVER pour water into this substance; when dissolving or diluting always add it slowly to the water.The amount of free sulfur trioxide may vary, which can change the physical properties, and therefore no figure for the molecular weight is given.Reported vapour pressure values differ greatly (from 0.3 to 21.9 kPa).Boiling points of solutions (% SO_3): 138°C (20% ), 116°C (30%), 60°C (65%).Melting points (% SO_3): 2°C (20%), 21°C (30%), 5°C (65%).See ICSCs 0362 and 1202.
