Inhalation If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
Get medical attention.
Serious Inhalation Evacuate the victim to a safe area as soon as possible. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or
waistband. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. If the victim is not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation. Seek medical attention.
Ingestion If swallowed, do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. Get medical
attention immediately.
Serious Ingestion Not available.

Various Substances Flammable in presence of oxidizing materials.
Slightly flammable to flammable in presence of moisture.
Explosion Hazards in Risks of explosion of the product in presence of mechanical impact: Not available.
Presence of Various Risks of explosion of the product in presence of static discharge: Not available.
Substances Slightly explosive in presence of moisture.
Fire Fighting Media Flammable solid.
and Instructions SMALL FIRE: Use DRY chemical powder.
LARGE FIRE: Use water spray or fog.
Special Remarks on Produces flammable gas on contact with water. May ignite on contact with water or moist air. When heated
Fire Hazards to decomposition it emits toxic fumes.
Special Remarks on Explosion May react vigorously or explosively on contact with water.
Hazards Dry mixtures with sodium hydroxide containing 15-40% sodium hydroboride liberate hydrogen explosively at
230-270 C.
Addition of 4% solution of sodium borohydride in diglyme containing 0.09% water to a 27% solution of
aluminum chloride in the same solvent lead to a violent explosion, attributed to formation and ignition of
hydrogen.
Hot solutions of Sodium borohydride (15.7% wt) in dimethylformamide will undergo a violent runaway
thermal decomposition. When dimethylformamide containing 2.6% formic acid is added to Sodium
borohydride at ambient temperature, immediate and violent decomposition ensues involving formation of
sodium formyloxytrihydroborate.
Use of Sodium borohydride solutions to reduce ruthenium salt solutions to the metal or an alloy gives solid
products (possibly hydrides), which when dry, explode violently in contact with water or when disturbed by a
spatula.
Large Spill Poisonous solid. Flammable solid that, in contact with water, emits flammable gases.
Stop leak if without risk. Do not get water inside container. Do not touch spilled material. Cover with dry
earth, sand or other non-combustible material. Use water spray to reduce vapors. Prevent entry into
sewers, basements or confined areas; dike if needed. Eliminate all ignition sources. Call for assistance on
disposal.
Products of Biodegradation Possibly hazardous short term degradation products are not likely. However, long term degradation
products may arise.
Toxicity of the Products The products of degradation are less toxic than the product itself.
