Hazardclass4.1

Hazard Flammable, dangerous fire risk near oxidizing materials. TLV: 0.5 mg(Sb)/m3.
Risk R11
Safety

Moderately toxic by intraperitoneal route. See also ANTIMONY COMPOUNDS and SULFIDES. Flammable when exposed to heat or by chemical reaction with powerful oxidizers. Use water to fight fire. Moderately explosive when shocked or by spontaneous chemical reaction in contact with powerful oxidizers. When heated to decomposition or on contact with acid or acid fumes it emits highly toxic fumes of oxides of sulfur and antimony. Incompatible with water or steam to produce toxic and flammable vapors and with oxidizers, e.g., Ag(ClO₃)₂, HClO₃, ClO₂, Mg(ClO₃)₂, TlO, Zn(ClO₃)₂.
