DOT: +Health Hazards: Poisonous; may be fatal if inhaled or absorbed through skin. Contact may cause burns to skin and eyes. Contact with liquid may cause frostbite. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution. /Hydrogen iodide, anhydrous/ [R7,p. G-15]
Fire or Explosion: Some of these materials may burn, but none of them ignites readily. Cylinder may explode in heat of fire. /Hydrogen iodide, anhydrous/ [R7,p. G-15]
Emergency Action: Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind, out of low areas, and ventilate closed spaces before entering. Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and structural firefighter's protective clothing will provide limited protection for short-term exposure to these materials. Fully-encapsulated protective clothing should be worn for spills and leaks with no fire. Evacuate the leak or spill area immediately for at least 50 feet in all directions. CALL CHEMTREC AT 1-800-424-9300 AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, especially if there is no local hazardous materials team available. /Hydrogen iodide, anhydrous/ [R7,p. G-15]
Fire: Small Fires: Dry chemical, CO2 or Halon. Large Fires: Water spray, fog or standard foam is recommended. Do not get water inside container. Move container from fire area if you can do it without risk. Cool containers that are exposed to flames with water from the side until well after fire is out. Stay away from ends of tanks. Isolate area until gas has dispersed. /Hydrogen iodide, anhydrous/ [R7,p. G-15]
Spill or Leak: Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Use water spray to reduce vapor; do not put water directly on leak or spill area. Small Spills: Flush area with flooding amounts of water.

NFPA: *Flammability: 3. 3= Liquids that can be ignited under almost all normal temp conditions. Water may be ineffective on these liq because of their low flash points. Solids that form coarse dusts, solids in shredded or fibrous form that create flash fires, solids that burn rapidly, usually because they contain their own oxygen, and any material that ignites spontaneously at normal temp in air. [R8,p. 49-52]
Reactivity: 0. 0= Materials that are normally stable even under fire exposure conditions and that are not reactive with water. Normal fire fighting procedures may be used. [R8,p. 49-52]
Health: 0. 0= Materials that on exposure under fire conditions would offer no health hazard beyond that of ordinary combustible material. [R8,p. 49-52]

OPRM: *SRP: Local exhaust ventilation should be applied wherever there is an incidence of point source emmissions or dispersion of regulated contaminants in the work area. Ventilation control of the contaminant as close to its point of generation is both the most economical and safest method to minimize personnel exposure to airborne contaminants.
Contact lens use in industry is controversial. A survey of 100 corporations resulted in the recommendation that each company establish their own contact lens use policy. One presumed hazard of contact lens use is possible chemical entrapment. /It was/ found that contact lens minimized injury or protected the eye. The eye was afforded more protection from liquid irritants. Soft contact lenses do not worsen corneal damage from strong chemicals and in some cases could actually protect the eye. Overall, the literature supports the wearing of contact lenses in industrial environments as part of the standard eye protection, eg, face shields; however, more data are needed to establish the value of contact lenses. [R11]
SRP: Contact lenses should not be worn when working with this chemical.

ALAB: *Method 414A: Leuco Crystal Violet Method. This method is applicable to iodide concentration of 50 to 6,000 ug/l and is capable of determining iodide in the presence of iodine. ... Iodide is selectively oxidized to iodine by the addition of potassium peroxymonosulfate. The iodine produced reacts instantaneously with colorless reagent containing 4,4',4"-methylidyntris (N,N-dimethylaniline) also known as leuco crystal violet dye. The developing color is sufficiently stable and adheres to Beer's law over a wide range of iodine. Chloride concentration greater than 200 mg/l may interfer with color development. Reduce this interference by diluting sample to contain less than 200 mg chloride ion/l. /Iodide/ [R21]
The catalytic reduction method is applicable to iodide concn of 80 ug/l or less. Iodide can be determined by using its ability to catalyze the reduction of ceric ions by arsenious acid. The effect is nonlinearly proportional to the amount of iodide present. The reaction is stopped after a specific time interval by the addition of ferrous ammonium sulfate. The resulting ferric ions are directly proportional to the remaining ceric ions and develop a relatively stable color complex with potassium thiocyanate. Results obtained by this method are reproducible on samples of Los Angeles source waters, and have been reported to be accurate to + or - 0.3 ug iodide ion/l on samples of Yugoslavian water containing from 0 to 14.0 ug iodide/l. /Total iodide/ [R22]
