=====================  Fire Fighting Measures  =====================

Flash Point Method:CC
Flash Point:-2F,-18C
Lower Limits:2.2%
Upper Limits:13%
Extinguishing Media:USE ALCOHOL FOAM, DRY CHEMICAL OR CO2. (WATER MAY
    BE INEFFECTIVE).
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR PROPER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND SCBA
    W/FULL FACEPIECE OPERATED PRESSURE DEMAND MODE. USE WATER TO KEEP
    FIRE-EXPOSED CONTAINERS COOL.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:VAPORS ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR AND MAY
    TRAVEL ALONG GROUND OR FLOOR, THEN 'FLASH BACK' FROM A DISTANT
    IGNITION SOURCE. CONTACT W/STRONG OXIDIZERS MAY CAUSE FIRE.

==================  Accidental Release Measures  ==================

Spill Release Procedures:WEAR SUITABLE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. ELIMINATE
    ALL IGNITION SOURCES. STOP LEAK IF POSSIBLE W/OUT RISK. USE H2O
    SPRAY TO REDUCE VAPORS. TAKE UP W/SAND/OTHER NON-COMBUSTIBLE
    ABSORBANT & PLACE INTO CONTAIN ER FOR DISPOSAL. FLUSH AREA W/WATER.

    REQUIREMENTS.
Protective Gloves:BUTYL RUBBER GLOVES.
Eye Protection:SAFETY (CHEMICAL SPLASH) GOGGLES
Other Protective Equipment:NO FURTHER EQUIPMENT GIVEN ON MSDS BY MFR.
Work Hygienic Practices:MFR: ?	HMIS:USE GOOD CHEMICAL HYGIENE
    PRACTICE. AVOID UNNECESSARY CONTACT. WASH THOROUGHLY BEFORE EATING
