Not Determined.
Upper Explosion Limit (UEL):
Extinguishing Media: Use water fog, carbon dioxide, foam or dry chemical.
Special Exposure Hazards: Fight fire from a safe distance and from a protected location. Use water spray to cool
fire exposed surfaces. Decomposition in fire may produce toxic gases. Do not allow
runoff to enter waterways.
Special Protective Equipment: Fire fighters should wear full impervious protective clothing, including self-contained
breathing equipment.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazards: Toxic emissions may result if product is involved in a fire.
LA IALJ~E[EASE MEASURES
Spill Procedures: Isolate the area. Stop leak if safe to do so. Wear gloves.
Procedure for Scoop up and remove material. Reuse if not contaminated. Do NOT spread spilled
Cleaning/Absorption: product with water.

(RQ):
Handling: Good hygienic practices should be observed. Work clothes should be washed
separately at the end of each work day. Disposable clothing should be discarded
with material. Avoid generating or breathing dust. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and
clothing. Reclose containers of unused product. Wash hands before eating,
drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. Do not reuse this container.
Storage: Store closed containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Store away from strong
oxidizing materials. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight.
Eye Protection: Wear safety glasses or goggles to protect against exposure.
Skin Protection: Normal work coveralls. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
SENSITIZER.
Gloves: Use gloves as a standard industrial handling procedure. All cleanable impervious
glove types are acceptable. SENSITIZER.
Respiratory Protection: Appropriate respiratory protection shall be worn when applied engineering controls
are not adequate to protect against inhalation exposure. Firefighting: Use a Positive
Pressure Demand Full Face Self Contained Breathing Apparatus.
Ventilation: Adequate ventilation should be provided to keep dust concentrations below
acceptable exposure limits. Discharge from the ventilation system should comply
with the applicable air pollutions control regulations. Eliminate ignition sources. If air
is to be recirculated, it must be filtered properly.
