Consensus Reports：Cyanide and its compounds are on the Community Right-To-Know List. Reported in EPA TSCA Inventory. EPA Extremely Hazardous Substances List.
SAFETY PROFILE：
Poison by ingestion, skin contact, inhalation, intraperitoneal, and subcutaneous routes. Readily decomposes to HCN and acetone. Keep cool and do not store for long periods. Combustible when exposed to heat or flame. To fight fire, use CO₂, dry chemical, alcohol foam. Vigorous reaction with H₂SO₄. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of CN⁻. See also NITRILES, HYDROCYANIC ACID, and ACETONE.
