Danger other than fire: None; on interaction with water, decomposes by hydrolysis
and release of boric acid and other non-volatile starting
materials.
Disposal considerations
Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: None after use.
Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The boron portion, which yields boric acid on contact with
water, can be neutralized with sodium hydroxide, sodium
bicarbonate, sodium carbonate or lime.
Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not recommended.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Recommended, but with consideration given to the boron and
nitrogen oxides which may be evolved.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: May be used depending on residence time.
Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: The substance will not enter the public domain.
