physical property

Density: 6.36g/cm three
Melting point: 259 ℃
Boiling point: 354 ℃
Appearance: yellow or red Crystallinity powder
Solubility : insoluble in water, soluble in methanol ethanol Ether chloroform glycerol acetone carbon disulfide [5]

chemical property

1. It will turn brown when exposed to light for a long time, and is especially sensitive to blue light. It will decompose into Hg And I two And potassium iodide Solution reaction can generate Potassium mercuric iodide [2]
2. It turns yellow when heated to 130 ℃ and still turns red when cold.
3. In Hg 2+ Add I to the solution - When ions are added, red HgI is generated at first two precipitate I - In case of excess ion, colorless [HgI is generated four ] 2- Dissolve with ions (colorless). [3]

Emergency Management

Isolate leakage Contaminated Zone , access is restricted. Cut off the ignition source. proposal Emergency Management Self contained personnel respirator , wear Antivirus clothing No direct contact Leakage. Small amount of leakage: avoid flying dust and use clean Shovel Collect in a dry, clean, covered container. Large leakage: use plastic sheeting Covering with canvas to reduce flying. Then collect, recycle or transport to waste disposal Site disposal.

Protective measures

respiratory system Protection: workers should wear hood type electric air supply filter type dust respirator. Wear an isolated respirator if necessary.
Eye protection: protection has been made in respiratory system protection.
Body protection: wear one-piece adhesive tape Antivirus clothing
Hand protection: wear Rubber gloves
Others: Smoking, eating and drinking are prohibited at the work site. After work, take a shower and change clothes. Store the clothes contaminated by poisons separately and use them after washing. Keep good hygiene habits.

First aid measures

Skin contact: Take off the contaminated clothes immediately and wash with plenty of flowing water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.
Eye contact: immediately lift the eyelids and use plenty of flowing water or normal saline Thoroughly flush for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.
Inhalation: quickly leave the site to a place with fresh air. keep respiratory tract unobstructed. as dyspnea , give oxygen. as Apnea , perform artificial respiration immediately. Get medical attention.
Ingestion: induce vomiting. Use clean water or 2% sodium bicarbonate Solution gastric lavage( contraindicated Normal saline), drink milk or egg white. Get medical attention.
