**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****

General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. Material will not burn. During a fire, irritating
and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or
combustion.
Extinguishing Media:
Substance is nonflammable; use agent most appropriate to extinguish
surrounding fire.

**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****

General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
Equipment section. Sweep up or absorb material, then place into a
suitable clean, dry, closed container for disposal. Avoid generating
dusty conditions. Provide ventilation.

**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****

Handling:
Wash hands before eating. Use only in a well-ventilated area. Keep
container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use with
adequate ventilation.
Storage:
Store in a cool, dry place. Keep container closed when not in use.
No special precautions indicated.

**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****

Engineering Controls:
Use adequate ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low.
