FIRST AID MEASURES  

 

Eye:  

If irrigation or redness develops, move victim away from exposure and into fresh air.  Flush eyes 

with clean water.  If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.  

Skin:  

Cleanse affected area(s) thoroughly by washing with mild soap and water.  If irritation or redness 

develops and persists, seek medical attention.   

Inhalation 

(Breathing):  

If respiratory symptoms develop, move victim away from source of exposure and into fresh air.  If 

symptoms persist, seek medical attention.  If victim is not breathing, clear airway and 

immediately begin artificial respiration.  If breathing difficulties develop, oxygen should be 

administered by qualified personnel.  Seek immediate medical attention.  

Ingestion 

(Swallowing): 

If large amounts are swallowed, seek emergency medical attention.  If victim is drowsy or 

unconscious and vomiting, place on left side with the head down and do not give anything by 

mouth.  If victim is conscious and alert and ingestion occurred within the last hour, vomiting 

should be induced for ingestion of large amounts (more than 5 ounces or a little more than 1/2 

cup in an adult) preferably under direction from a physician or poison center.  If possible, do not 

leave victim unattended and observe closely for adequacy of breathing.  

Note to Physicians: 

No information found.

FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES  

 

Flammable  

Properties:  

This product is non-flammable.  

Flash Point - Not applicable 

OSHA Flammability Class - Not applicable 

LEL/UEL - Not applicable 

Auto-ignition Temperature - Not applicable 

Unusual Fire &  

Explosion Hazards:  

No unusual fire or explosion hazards are expected. When this material is subjected to high 

temperatures, it may release small amounts of chloride gas.    

Extinguishing  

Media:   

Use extinguishing agent suitable for type of surrounding fire.  



Fire Fighting 

Instructions: 

Positive pressure, self contained breathing apparatus is required for all fire fighting activities 

involving hazardous materials.  Full structural fire fighting (bunker) gear is the minimum 

acceptable attire.  The need for proximity, entry, flashover and/or special chemical protective 

clothing (see Section VIII) needs to be determined for each incident by a competent fire fighting 

safety professional.  Water used for fire suppression and cooling may become contaminated.  

Discharge to sewer system(s) or the environment may be restricted, requiring containment and 

proper disposal of water (see Section VI).

VI. 

ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES  

 

DYNA-K ® is a feed ingredient.  Potassium Chloride is also a crop nutrient and plant food however; large spills can harm 

or kill vegetation.  

 



Stay upwind and away from spill (To avoid potential dust exposure).  

 



Wear appropriate protective equipment including respiratory protection as conditions warrant (see Section VIII).  

 



Prevent spilled material from entering sewers, storm drains, other unauthorized treatment drainage systems, and 

natural waterways.  

 

Notify appropriate federal, state, and local agencies as may be required (see Section XIII). 



 

Minimize dust generation.  



 

Sweep up and package appropriately for disposal.  



 

VII.  HANDLING AND STORAGE  

 

Handling:  

The use of appropriate respiratory protection is advised when concentrations exceed any 

established exposure limits (see Sections II and VIII).  Wash thoroughly after handling.  Wash 

contaminated clothing.  Use good personal hygiene practice.  



Storage:  

Keep container(s) tightly closed.  When possible use and store this material in cool, dry, well 

ventilated areas.  Store only in approved containers.  Keep away from any incompatible material 

(see Section X).  Protect container(s) against physical damage.  



 

VIII.  EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION  

 

Engineering 

Controls:   

If current ventilation practices are not adequate to maintain airborne concentrations below the 

established exposure limits (see Section II), additional ventilation or exhaust systems may be 

required.  



 

 

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)  

  

Respiratory:  

A NIOSH approved air purifying respirator with a type 95 (R or P) particulate filter may be used 

under conditions where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits (see 

Section II).  Protection provided by air purifying respirators is limited (see manufacturer's 

respirator selection guide).  Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is potential for 

uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known or any other circumstances where air 

purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.  A respiratory protection program that 

meets OSHA's 29 CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed if workplace 

conditions warrant a respirator.  

Skin:  

The use of cloth or leather work gloves is advised to prevent skin contact, possible irritation and 

absorption (see glove manufacturer literature for information on permeability).  

Eye/Face:  

Approved eye protection to safeguard against potential eye contact, irritation, or injury is 

recommended.  Depending on conditions of use, a face shield may be necessary.  

Other PPE:  

A source of clean water should be available in the work area for flushing eyes and skin.  

Impervious clothing should be worn as needed.

STABILITY AND REACTIVITY  

 

Chemical Stability:   

Stable under normal conditions of storage and handling.  Material is hygroscopic (May absorb 

moisture from air when relative humidity >72%).   

Conditions to 

Avoid:  

None known 



Incompatible 

Materials:  

Avoid contact with hot nitric acid, may cause evolution of toxic nitrosyl chloride.  Contact with 

other strong acids may produce irritating hydrogen chloride gas.  KCl may react violently with 

bromine trifluoride and may explode if mixed with potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid.  

NaCl can react with most noble metals, such as iron or steel, building materials (such as 

cement), bromine, or trifluoride.  A potentially explosive reaction may occur if NaCl is mixed with 

dichloromaleic anhydride and urea.  Electrolysis of mixtures containing NaCl and nitrogen 

compounds may form explosive nitrogen trichloride.  



Corrosivity:  

Similar to salt.  Mildly corrosive to metals in the presence of moisture.  



Hazardous 

Decomposition  

Products:  

None known 



Hazardous 

Polymerization:
