Fire and Explosion Hazard Information
=======================================================
Flash Point: >182.C, 359.6F
Flash Point Text: 182-287C
Extinguishing Media: WATER SPRAY, DRY CHEMCIAL, ALCOHOL FOAM, OR CARBON
DIOXIDE.
Fire Fighting Procedures: USE NIOSH APPROVED SCBA AND FULL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
(FP N).
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard: FIRE: AS WITH MOST ORGANIC SOLIDS, FIRE IS
POSSIBLE AT ELEVATED TEMPS OR BY CONTACT WITH IGNITION SOURCE. (INCREASES AS
MOLECULAR WEIGHT INCREASES). EXPLO: FINE DUST DISPERSED IN AIR IN SUFFICIENT
CON CS, & IN PRESENCE OF IGNIT SOURCE IS POTNTL DUST EXPLO HAZ. NFPA

=======================================================
Control Measures
=======================================================
Respiratory Protection: FOR USE W/SOLIDS (NOT REQD FOR LIQS): IF EXPOS LIM IS
EXCEEDED, A NIOSH APPRVD HALF-FACE RESP WITH DUST/MIST RESP MAY BE WORN FOR
UP TO 10 TIMES EXPOS LIM/MAX USE CONC SPECIFIED BY APPROP REGULATORY A
GENCY/RESP SUPPLIER, WHICHEVER IS LOWEST. A NIOSH APPRVD FULL-FACE PIECE
DUST/MIST RESP MAY BE WORN UP TO 50 TIMES EXPOS LIM/MAX USE CONC SPECIFIED
(OTHER INFO)
Ventilation: SYS OF LOC &/OR GEN EXHST IS REC TO KEEP EMPLOYEE EXPOS BELOW
AIRBORNE EXPOS LIMS. LOC EXHST VENT IS GENRLY PREF BECAUSE IT CAN CONTROL
EMISSIONS OF(SUPP DATA)
Protective Gloves: IMPERVIOUS GLOVES (FP N).
Eye Protection: ANSI APPROVED CHEMICAL WORKERS GOGGLES (FP N).
Other Protective Equipment: ANSI APPROVED EYE WASH & DELUGE SHOWER (FP N). WEAR
