Specific hazards arising from None.
the substance or mixture
Special protective equipment Water spray, dry powder, and protein type air foams are
and precautions for fire-fighters effective; carbon dioxide may be ineffective in large fires
due to lack of cooling capacity.
6. Accidental release measures
Personnel precautions None.
Environmental precautions Avoid runoff into storm sewers, ditches, and waterways.
Cleanup measures Spills should be contained, solidified, and placed in suitable
containers for disposal. Wash exposed skin with soap and water.
7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling Avoid breathing mist. Avoid prolonged skin contact.
Engineering controls Use local exhaust ventilation if sprayed inside. Otherwise,
general ventilation is adequate.
Conditions for safe storage Store upright in original sealed container in a cool, dry location away
from light and strong frost.
Storage temperature Do not allow to freeze. Store between 40°F and 80°F. Keep cap on
container at all times.
Shelf life Shelf life is 3 years, if properly stored.
8. Exposure controls/Personal protection
Exposure controls Use appropriate engineering controls such as proper ventilation. Where
such systems are not effective, wear suitable personal protective
equipment, which performs satisfactorily and meets OSHA or other
recognized standards.
Personal protective equipment
Eye/Face protection Wear goggles to avoid overspray and splashing. Eye and face
protection should be in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.133.
Hand/Arm protection Rubber or plastic gloves are recommended.
Respiratory protection Use an N-95 or P-95 mask.
If sprayed, wear an air-purifying respirator approved by NIOSH in
accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134(d)(1)(ii). If used in a confined
area, a full-face, powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR) or supplied-air
respirator (SAR) is recommended. Use respirators in accordance with 29
CFR 1910.134(d)(3)(i)(A) Table 1, 29 CFR 1910.134(d)(3)(iii)(B) and 29
CFR 1910.134(d)(3)(iv)(B).
