5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Fire/Explosion Hazard
SUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
HAZARDS FROM COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Decomposes on heating emitting oxides of carbon and noxious
smoke.
PRECAUTIONS FOR FIRE FIGHTERS AND SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCBA) required for fire-fighting personnel. If possible to do so safely, shut off fuel to fire. Avoid
spreading burning liquid with water used for cooling fire exposed containers when using water spray, boil-over may
occur when the product temperature reaches the boiling point of water, thereby resulting in re-ignition.
HAZCHEM CODE: 3[Y]E [Aust]
FLAMMABILITY
This material is a HIGHLY FLAMMABLE liquid. Avoid all sources of ignition, heat and naked flames.
Flash Point: 11掳C
Flammability Limits: LEL: 1.2 % UEL: 7.0 %
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Emergency Procedures:
Highly flammable liquid. Avoid all sources of ignition. Keep unnecessary people away; Isolate hazard area and deny
entry. Ventilate area. Wear suitable protective equipment as outlined under personal protection in this MSDS.
Methods and Materials for Containment and Clean Up Procedures:
Throw diatomaceous earth onto spill. ALLOW TO ABSORB. DO NOT use sawdust. Use non-sparking tools or
HEPA vacuum system to pick up. Place into labelled drum(s) for later disposal. If risk of fire, blanket the spill with
foam or use water fog to disperse vapour clouds. Consult an expert regarding disposal of this product.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for Safe Handling:
Highly flammable liquid. Avoid ignition sources. Do not get in eyes. Avoid direct or prolonged contact with skin.
Provide adequate ventilation.
Conditions for Safe Storage:
Keep containers tightly closed, when not using the product. Store in original packages as approved by manufacturer.
Store in an area that is dry and well-ventilation away from ignition sources. Store below 25掳C. The floor of the depot
should be impermeable. Store away from oxidizing agents. For further information please refer to the Engineering
Controls of this MSDS.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Exposure Standards
No exposure standards are available for this product, however, the following exposure standards have been assigned by
[ASCC/NOHSC] to the following components of the product:
TOLUENE
[ASCC/NOHSC]
[TWA] 100 ppm377 mg/m3
[STEL] 150 ppm565 mg/m3
Engineering Controls
Highly flammable liquid. Maintain adequate ventilation at all times. Prevent accumulation of vapours in hollows or
sumps. Eliminate any sources of ignition.
Personal Protection Equipment
GLOVES: Neoprene or nitrile.
EYES: Chemical goggles or spectacles with side shields to protect eyes.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Avoid breathing of vapours. Filter capacity and respirator type depends on
exposure levels and type of contaminant. Select and use respirators in accordance with AS/NZS 1715/1716. When
vapours exceed the exposure standards then the use of a half-face respirator fitted with an organic vapour cartridge is
recommended. If entering confined spaces or if unknown levels of contaminate are a potentiality, then the use of a
Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with positive pressure air supply complying with AS/NZS 1715 / 1716, or
any other acceptable International Standard is recommended.
