Product Name
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flammability
Highly flammable. May evolve toxic gases (carbon oxides, hydrocarbons) when heated to
decomposition. Vapor may form explosive mixtures with air. Eliminate all ignition sources including
cigarettes, open flames, spark producing switches/tools, heaters, naked lights, pilot lights, mobile
phones etc. when handling. Earth containers when dispensing fluids.
Fire and Explosion
Evacuate area and contact emergency services. Toxic gases may be evolved in a fire situation.
Remain upwind and notify those downwind of hazard. Wear full protective equipment including Self
Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) when combating fire. Use waterfog to cool intact containers
and nearby storage areas.
Extinguishing
Dry agent, carbon dioxide, foam or water fog. Prevent contamination of drains or waterways.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautions Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) as detailed in Section 8 of this SDS. Clear area of all
unprotected personnel. Ventilate area where possible. Contact emergency services where
appropriate.
Environmental Precautions
Prevent product from entering drains and waterways.
Methods of Cleaning Up Contain spillage, then cover/absorb spill with non-combustible absorbent material (vermiculite, sand,
or similar), collect and place in suitable containers for disposal.
References
See Sections 8 and 13 for exposure controls and disposal.
7. STORAGE AND HANDLING
Storage
Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area, removed from incompatible substances, heat or ignition
sources and foodstuffs. Ensure containers are adequately labelled, protected from physical damage
and sealed when not in use. Large storage areas should be bunded and have appropriate ventilation
systems.
Handling
Before use carefully read the product label. Use of safe work practices are recommended to avoid
eye or skin contact and inhalation. Observe good personal hygiene, including washing hands before
eating. Prohibit eating, drinking and smoking in contaminated areas.

Engineering Controls
Avoid inhalation. Use in well ventilated areas. Where an inhalation risk exists, mechanical explosion
proof extraction ventilation is recommended. Flammable/explosive vapors may accumulate in poorly
ventilated areas. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel some distance to an ignition source and
flash back. Maintain vapor levels below the recommended exposure standard.
