Sodium nitrite.

A yellowish-white salt somewhat moist in appearance. It is an oxidizing material which while containing less oxygen than the nitrates, is more readily decomposed, and therefore generally more active. When mixed with organic matter, it is more readily ignited than a corresponding mixture of sodium nitrate. Sodium nitrite if mixed with ammonium salts decomposes

spontaneously and may cause
fires.

Absorbs moisture.
Soluble in water.

Involved in a fire will greatly intensify the burning of all combustible materials.

Do not stow with ammonium nitrate.

Stow away from all combustible materials, explosives or acids (white label).
