SECTION 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
NFPA Class B extinguishers(Carbon Dioxide or foam)for Class I B liquid fires.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES
Water spray may be ineffective on fire but can protect fire-fighters & cool closed containers. Use fog
nozzles if water is used. Do not enter confined fire-space without full bunker gear. (Helmet with face
shield,bunker coats, gloves & rubber boots). Use NIOSH approved positive-pressure self-contained
breathing apparatus.
UNUSUAL EXPLOSION AND FIRE PROCEDURES
HIGHLY FLAMMABLE!! VAPORS CAN CAUSE FLASH FIRE
Keep container tightly closed. Isolate from oxidizers, heat, sparks, electric equipment & open flame.
Closed containers may explode if exposed to extreme heat. Applying to hot surfaces requires special
precautions. Empty container very hazardous! Continue all label precautions!
SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
CONTAINMENT TECHNIQUES
Stop spill at source. Dike area & contain.
CLEAN-UP PROCEDURES:
Clean up remainder with absorbent materials. Mop up & dispose of. Persons without proper protection
should be kept from area until cleaned up.
SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING
Isolate from oxidizers, heat, sparks, electric equipment & open flame. Use only with adequate
ventilation. Avoid breathing of vapor or spray mist. Avoid contact with skin & eyes. Wear OSHA
Standard goggles or face shield. Consult Safety Equipment Supplier. Wear gloves, apron & footwear
impervious to this material. Wash clothing before reuse. Avoid free fall of liquid. Ground containers when
transferring. Do not flame cut, saw, drill, braze, or weld. Empty container very hazardous! Continue all
label precautions!
STORAGE
Do not store above 49 C/120 F. Store large amounts in structures made for OSHA Class I B liquids.
Keep container tightly closed & upright when not in use to prevent leakage. OSHA Class I B liquids.
SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION:
EXPOSURE CONTROLS
Ventilate to keep vapors of this material below 50 ppm. If over TLV, in accordance with 29 CFR
1910.134, use NIOSH approved positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus. Consult Safety
Equipment Supplier. Use explosion-proof equipment.
