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. Water
Reactive. Material will react with water and may release a flammable
and/or toxic gas. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers
cool. Containers may explode in the heat of a fire.
Extinguishing Media:
DO NOT USE WATER! Use only graphite powder, soda ash, powdered
sodium chloride, or an appropriate metal-fire-extinguishing dry
powder. Do NOT get water inside containers. Cool containers with
flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out. For large
fires, use dry sand, dry chemical, soda ash or lime or withdraw from
area and let fire burn.

**** 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, then place into a suitable container for
disposal. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Remove all sources of
ignition. Use a spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation. Do not get
water on spilled substances or inside containers.

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

Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Keep container tightly closed. Do not get on skin
or in eyes. Do not ingest or inhale. Use with adequate ventilation.
Store protected from light. Discard contaminated shoes.
Storage:
Keep container closed when not in use. Keep away from water.
Corrosives area. Store protected from light.

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

Engineering Controls:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate
ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low.
