may accumulate static charge which can cause an electrical spark
(ignition source) in some cases. To avoid fire or explosion, dissipate
static electricity during transfer by grounding and bonding containers and
equipment before transferring material.
Protective actions fire-fighters Wear standard protective equipment and self contained breathing
apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
Further information Use water spray to cool unopened containers.
Section 6: Accidental Release Measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment, and emergency procedures
Wear proper personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing dust, fine particulate, vapors and/or mist.
Environmental precautions
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Prevent spills or contaminated rinse water from entering sewers or watercourses.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
For Small Spill: In the event of a small spill, clean up area with non-sparking tools and place into an appropriate container for
disposal. Avoid the generation of dust clouds and contamination of waterways.
For Large Spill: In the event of a large spill, keep unnecessary people away. Isolate area for at least 25 meters (75 feet) in all
directions to preserve public safety. If downwind consider initial evacuation for at least 100 meters (300 feet). Eliminate all
sources of ignition (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Prevent or minimize formation of a dust cloud or
layer during cleanup. This material releases a flammable blowing agent. In its finely divided form, this material may present an
explosion hazard when dispersed in a confined area and ignited in air.
Water spill: use appropriate containment to avoid run off or release to sewer or other waterways.
Land spill: use appropriate containment to avoid run off or release to ground.
Place into an appropriate container for disposal.
