International Chemical Safety Cards CYCLOTETRAMETHYLENE TETRANITRAMINE ICSC: 1575 HMX Octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine Octogen C4H8N8O8 Molecular mass: 296.2 ICSC #    1575 CAS #     2691-41-0 RTECS # UN #        226 (wet), 484 (desensitized) April 19, 2005 Peer reviewed TYPES OF HAZARD/ EXPOSURE ACUTE HAZARDS/ SYMPTOMS PREVENTION FIRST AID/ FIRE FIGHTING FIRE Explosive. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. NO open flames, NO sparks, and NO smoking. In case of fire in the surroundings: use appropriate extinguishing media. EXPLOSION Risk of fire and explosion. Closed system, ventilation, explosion-proof electrical equipment and lighting. Do NOT expose to friction or shock. Combat fire from a sheltered position. EXPOSURE  •INHALATION See Ingestion. Ventilation (not if powder), local exhaust, or breathing protection. Fresh air, rest.  •SKIN MAY BE ABSORBED! Redness. Protective gloves. Protective clothing. Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.  •EYES Redness. Pain. Safety spectacles, or eye protection in combination with breathing protection if powder. First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.  •INGESTION Confusion. Drowsiness. Convulsions. Unconsciousness. Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Rinse mouth. Refer for medical attention. SPILLAGE DISPOSAL STORAGE PACKAGING & LABELLING Evacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Remove all ignition sources. Personal protection: Chemical protection suit. Cover the spilled material with water. Carefully collect remainder, then remove to safe place. Do NOT wash away into sewer. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Fireproof. Separated from strong bases, strong acids. Store in an area without drain or sewer access.
