Thermally Conductive, Flame Retardant Epoxy Resin, Part B
Protective actions during
firefighting
Avoid breathing fire gases or vapours. Evacuate area. Keep upwind to avoid inhalation of
gases, vapours, fumes and smoke. Cool containers exposed to heat with water spray and
remove them from the fire area if it can be done without risk. Cool containers exposed to
flames with water until well after the fire is out. If a leak or spill has not ignited, use water
spray to disperse vapours and protect men stopping the leak. Avoid discharge to the aquatic
environment. Control run-off water by containing and keeping it out of sewers and
watercourses. If risk of water pollution occurs, notify appropriate authorities.
Special protective equipment
for firefighters
Regular protection may not be safe. Wear chemical protective suit. Wear positive-pressure
self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and appropriate protective clothing. Firefighter's
clothing conforming to European standard EN469 (including helmets, protective boots and
gloves) will provide a basic level of protection for chemical incidents.
SECTION 6: Accidental release measures
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal precautions No action shall be taken without appropriate training or involving any personal risk. Keep
unnecessary and unprotected personnel away from the spillage. Wear protective clothing as
described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet. Follow precautions for safe handling
described in this safety data sheet. Wash thoroughly after dealing with a spillage. Ensure
procedures and training for emergency decontamination and disposal are in place. Do not
touch or walk into spilled material. Avoid inhalation of vapours and spray/mists. Use suitable
respiratory protection if ventilation is inadequate. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid
contact with contaminated tools and objects.
6.2. Environmental precautions
Environmental precautions Avoid discharge into drains or watercourses or onto the ground. Avoid discharge to the
aquatic environment. Large Spillages: Inform the relevant authorities if environmental pollution
occurs (sewers, waterways, soil or air).
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for cleaning up Wear protective clothing as described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet. Clear up spills
immediately and dispose of waste safely. This product is corrosive. Provide adequate
ventilation. Approach the spillage from upwind. Small Spillages: If the product is soluble in
water, dilute the spillage with water and mop it up. Alternatively, or if it is not water-soluble,
absorb the spillage with an inert, dry material and place it in a suitable waste disposal
container. Large Spillages: If leakage cannot be stopped, evacuate area. Flush spilled
material into an effluent treatment plant, or proceed as follows. Contain and absorb spillage
with sand, earth or other non-combustible material. Place waste in labelled, sealed containers.
Clean contaminated objects and areas thoroughly, observing environmental regulations. The
contaminated absorbent may pose the same hazard as the spilled material. Flush
contaminated area with plenty of water. Wash thoroughly after dealing with a spillage.
Dangerous for the environment. Do not empty into drains. Dispose of waste to licensed waste
disposal site in accordance with the requirements of the local Waste Disposal Authority.
6.4. Reference to other sections
Reference to other sections For personal protection, see Section 8. See Section 11 for additional information on health
hazards. See Section 12 for additional information on ecological hazards. For waste disposal,
see Section 13.
