Notes to Physician:
**** 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. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases
may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion.
Extinguishing Media:
Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Do NOT get water
inside containers. Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or
appropriate foam.
**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal
container. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the
Protective Equipment section. Avoid generating dusty conditions.
Provide ventilation. Place under an inert atmosphere. Do not get
water inside containers.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid
contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed.
Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Store protected from light. Handle
under an inert atmosphere. Store protected from air. Do not allow
contact with water. Store and handle protected from air. Keep from
contact with moist air and steam.
Storage:
Do not store in direct sunlight. Store in a tightly closed
container. Keep under a nitrogen blanket. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Do not expose
to air. Store protected from moisture. Store protected from light.
Store under an inert atmosphere.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
