Safety Information
Hazard Symbols: Flammable (pyrophoric) at room temperature in powder form; store under inert gas, petroleum, or other oxygen-free liquid. When heated to approximately 200C in hydrogen, barium reacts violently, forming BaH2. TLV: for all soluble barium compounds, 0.5 mg/m3 (as barium).
