Special Fire Fighting Procedures:
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing. Water may be used to cool fire-exposed containers.
Unusual Fire and Explosion:
VI. Accidental Release Measures:
Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled:
Wear vapor respirator, safety goggles, and rubber gloves. Remove sources of ignition (i.e. open flames, sparks). Dike if needed.
Soak up with inert absorbent material (do not use flammable substances such as sawdust). Ventilate and wash spill site after
collection since some silicone materials may present a slip hazard. Final cleaning may require use of steam, solvents, or
detergents. Dispose according to local, state, and federal regulations.
