Spills and leaks: In case of spills or leaks, immediately contain and clean up the material using appropriate absorbent materials. Avoid creating dust or releasing the substance into the environment. Dispose of the waste according to local regulations. 6. Chemical incompatibilities: Sodium disulfite can react with strong acids, oxidizing agents, and certain metals. Avoid contact or mixing with these substances to prevent potential reactions or hazards. 7. First aid: In case of accidental exposure or ingestion, seek medical attention immediately. Rinse affected areas with plenty of water and remove contaminated clothing. Provide medical personnel with all relevant information about the substance.
