Hydrogen Peroxide 50% – FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Contact Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes.
Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing. Seek
immediate medical attention/advice.
Skin Contact Take off contaminated clothing. Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15-20
minutes. Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice.
Inhalation Move to fresh air. If person is not breathing, contact emergency medical services, then give
artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth if possible. Call a poison control center or
doctor for further treatment advice.
Ingestion Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting. If conscious, give 2 glasses of water. Get immediate
medical attention. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Hydrogen Peroxide irritates respiratory system and, if inhaled, may cause inflammation and
pulmonary edema. The effects may not be immediate. Overexposure symptoms are
coughing, giddiness and sore throat. In case of accidental ingestion, necrosis may result
from mucous membrane burns (mouth, esophagus and stomach). Oxygen rapid release
may cause stomach swelling and hemorrhaging, which may product major, or even fatal,
injury to organs if a large amount has been ingested.
In case of skin contact, may cause burns, erythema, blisters or even necrosis.
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Hydrogen peroxide at these concentrations is a strong oxidant. Direct contact with the eye
is likely to cause corneal damage especially if not washed immediately. Careful
opthalmologic evaluation is recommended and the possibility of local corticosteroid therapy
should be considered. Because of the likelihood of corrosive effects on the gastrointestinal
tract after ingestion, and the unlikelihood of systemic effects, attemps at evacuating the
stomach via emesis induction or gastric lavage should be avoided. There is a remote
possibility, however, that a nasogastric or orogastric tube may be required for the reduction
of severe distension due to gas formation.

FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable Extinguishing Media Water. Do not use any other substance.
Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical
In closed unventilated containers, risk of rupture due to the increased pressure from
decomposition. Contact with combustible material may cause fire
Hazardous Combustion Products On decomposition product releases oxygen which may intensify fire.

Occupational exposure limits, if available, are listed in section 8

Personal Precautions Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Wear personal protective equipment. Isolate and
post spill area. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Eliminate all sources of
ignition and remove combustible materials.
Other Combustible materials exposed to hydrogen peroxide should be immediately submerged in
or rinsed with large amounts of water to ensure that all hydrogen peroxide is removed.
Residual hydrogen peroxide that is allowed to dry (upon evaporation hydrogen peroxide can
concentrate) on organic materials such as paper, fabrics, cotton, leather, wood or other
combustibles can cause the material to ignite and result in fire.
Environmental Precautions See Section 12 for additional Ecological Information.
Methods for Containment Dike to collect large liquid spills. Stop leak and contain spill if this can be done safely. Small spillage: Dilute with large quantities of water.
Methods for cleaning up Flush area with flooding quantities of water. Hydrogen peroxide may be decomposed by
adding sodium metabisulfite or sodium sulfite after diluting to about 5%.

HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling Use only in well-ventilated areas. Keep/Store away from clothing/ combustible materials.
Wear personal protective equipment. Never return unused hydrogen peroxide to original
container. Contamination may cause decomposition and generation of oxygen gas which
could result in high pressures and possible container rupture. Empty drums should be triple
rinsed with water before discarding. Utensils used for handling hydrogen peroxide should
only be made of glass, stainless steel, aluminum or plastic. Pipes and equipment should be
passivated before first use. Hydrogen peroxide should be stored only in vented containers
and transferred only in a prescribed manner.
Storage Keep containers in cool areas out of direct sunlight and away from combustibles. Provide
mechanical general and/or local exhaust ventilation to prevent release of vapor or mist into
work environment. Containers must be vented. Keep/store only in original container. Store
rooms or warehouses should be made of non-combustible materials with impermeable
floors. In case of release, spillage should flow to safe area. Containers should be visually
inspected on a regular basis to detect any abnormalities (swollen drums, increases in
temperature, etc.).
Incompatible products Combustible materials. Copper alloys, galvanized iron. Strong reducing agents. Heavy
metals. Iron. Copper alloys. Contact with metals, metallic ions, alkalis, reducing agents and
organic matter (such as alcohols or terpenes) may produce self-accelerated thermal
decomposition.

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/Face Protection Use chemical splash-type monogoggles and a full-face shield made of polycarbonate,
acetate, polycarbonate/acetate, PETG or thermoplastic.
Skin and Body Protection For body protection wear impervious clothing such as an approved splash protective suit made of SBR rubber, PVC (PVC Outershell w/Polyester Substrate), Gore-Tex (Polyester
trilaminate w/Gore-Tex), or a specialized HAZMAT Splash or Protective Suite (Level A, B,
or C). For foot protection, wear approved boots made of NBR, PVC, Polyurethane, or
neoprene. Overboots made of Latex or PVC, as well as firefighter boots or specialized
HAZMAT boots are also permitted. DO NOT wear any form of boot or overboot made of
nylon or nylon blends. DO NOT USE cotton, wool or leather as these materials react rapidly
with higher concentrations of hydrogen peroxide. Completely submerge hydrogen peroxide
contaminated clothing or other materials in water prior to drying. Residual hydrogen
peroxide, if allowed to dry on materials such as paper, fabrics, cotton, leather, wood or
other combustibles, can cause the material to ignite and result in a fire.
Hand Protection For hand protection, wear approved gloves made of nitrile, PVC, or neoprene. DO NOT
use cotton, wool or leather for these materials react RAPIDLY with higher concentrations of
hydrogen peroxide. Thoroughly rinse the outside of gloves with water prior to removal.
Inspect regularly for leaks.
Respiratory Protection If concentrations in excess of 10 ppm are expected, use NIOSH/DHHS approved
self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) or other approved air-supplied respirator (ASR)
equipment (e.g., a full-face airline respirator (ALR)). DO NOT use any form of air-purifying
respirator (APR) or filtering facepiece (dust mask), especially those containing oxidizable
sorbants such as activated carbon.
Hygiene measures Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas. Clean water should be available for washing in case of
eye or skin contamination. .
