HAZARDOUS PRODUCTS OF DECOMPOSITION:  In case of fire or extreme heat, the following may be produced:   oxides of carbon and nitrogen and hydrogen chloride.

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:  Water spray, foam, dry chemical powder, or carbon dioxide.

 

FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS:  Firefighters should wear proper protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in positive pressure mode.

Move containers from fire area if it can be done without risk. Use water to keep fire-exposed containers cool.

 

SECTION 6 – ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES:

 

SMALL SPILL:  For small spills, soak up material with an absorbent such as clay, sand, or other suitable material and dispose of properly. Flush area with water to remove trace residue.

 

LARGE SPILL:  Wear respirator and protective clothing as appropriate. Shut off source of leak if it is safe to do so. Prevent liquid from entering sewers or waterways. Dike and contain spilled material. Remove with vacuum trucks or pump to storage/salvage containers. Soak up residue with an absorbent such as clay, sand, or other suitable material. Flush area with water to remove trace residue. 

 

 

SECTION 7 – HANDLING AND STORAGE:

 

HANDLING:  Handle and open containers with care.  Do not handle near an open flame, heat, or other source of ignition.  Wear appropriate personal protection gear (see Section 8).

 

STORAGE:  Store in a cool, well ventilated place away from incompatible materials. Do not store near an open flame, heat, or other source of ignition. Protect material from direct sunlight.

Keep out of reach of children.

 

SECTION 8 – EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION:

 

EYE/FACE PROTECTION:  Wear chemical splash goggles when splashing is possible.

SKIN PROTECTION:  Wear neoprene or nitrile rubber gloves.  Wear impervious clothing and boots to

                prevent skin contact.

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:  If workplace exposure limits of product or any component are

exceeded, a NIOSH/MSHA approved air supplied respirator is advised in absence of proper environmental control. OSHA regulations also permit other NIOSH/MSHA respirators (negative pressure type) under specified conditions (consult your safety representative).  Engineering controls or administrative controls should be implemented to reduce exposure.

ENGINEERING CONTROLS:  Provide sufficient mechanical ventilation (general and local exhaust) to

maintain exposure below the level of overexposure from known, suspected or apparent adverse effects.
