Ignition temperature Value: not determined
NFPA Hazard Class (comb/flamm liquid): II
Fire and Exlosion Hazards: OSHA combustible, DOT flammable liquid and vapor. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along the
ground, be moved by ventilation systems, settle in pits or low areas, and be ignited by ignition sources distant from the handling point.
The material is lighter than water, burning spilled material will float on top of any water released from hose or sprinkler systems
spreading the fire beyond the initial fire response area. Never use welding or cutting torch on or near any container of this material, even
if empty, because an explosion could occur. As a result of hydrolysis flammable vapors may accumulate in the container head space.
Material may form toxic and corrosive gases in case of fire. Do no allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.
Recommended extinguishing media: AFFF alcohol compatible foam. Carbon dioxide. Dry chemical.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: High volume water jet, water, halones
Special exposure hazards arising from the substance or preparation itself, combustion products, resulting gases: Hazardous
decomposition products: carbon dioxide , carbon monoxide , formaldehyde , silicon dioxide and incompletely burnt hydrocarbons .
Carbon oxides, sulfur oxide, hydrogen sulfide, sulphuric acid.
Fire fighting procedures: Full turn-out gear and Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) should be worn when fighting large fires.
Use personal protective equipment.
Furthur information: Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains. Fire residues and
contaminated fire extinghusing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. For safety reasons in cse of fire, cans
should be stored separately in closed containments. Use a water spray to cool fully closed containers.
SECTION 6: RELEASE MEASURES
Precautions: Wear personal protection equipment (see section 8). Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Avoid inhaling mists and vapours.
HAZWOPER PPE Level: D Ensure adequate ventiliation, Remove all sources of ignition, Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Beware of
vapors accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapors can accumulate in low areas. If material is released indicate risk of
slipping.
Containment: Prevent material from entering sewers or surface waters. Contain any fluid that runs out using suitable material (e.g.
earth). Retain contaminated water/extinguishing water. Dispose of in prescribed marked containers. Inform authorities if substance
leaks into surface waters, sewerage or ground. Spills of material which could reach surface waters must be reported to the United
States Coast Guard National Response Center's toll free phone number (800) 424-8802.
Methods for cleaning up: Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible absorbent material and place in container for disposal
according to local/state/federal regulations. Do not flush away with water. Take up mechanically and dispose of according to
local/state/federal regulations. larger amounts and pump up into suitable containers. If flammable, only air driven or properly rated
electrical equipment should be used. Silicone fluids are slippery, spills are a safety hazard.
Furthur information: Exhaust vapors. Eliminate all sources of ignition. Consider explosion protection.
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling: Ensure adequate ventilation. Must be syphoned off in situ. Spilled substance increases risk of slipping.
Avoid formation of aerosol. Do not breahe vapors/dust. Avoid exposure obtain special instructions before use. Avoid contact with skin
and eyes. Smoking, eating, drinking should be prohibited in the application area. Take precaustionary measures against static
discharges. Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms. Open drum carefully as content may be under pressure.
Dispose of rinse water in accordance with local and national regulations.
Precautions against fire and explosion required: Take precautionary measures against electrostatic charging. Cool endangered
containers with water. Flammable vapors may accumulate and form explosive mixtures with air in containers, process vessels, including
partial, empty and uncleaned containers and vessels, or other enclosed spaces. Keep away from open flames, heat and sparks. Keep
away from sources of ignition and do not smoke. Do not spray on a nake flame or any incandescent materials. Product may release
ethanol.
Storage
Conditions for storage rooms and vessels: Make sure there is no possibility of entering the ground.
Advice for storage of incompatible materials: Observe local/state/federal regulations.
Further information for storage:
No smoking. Do not store in open air. Store in a dry and cool place. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.
Protect against moisture. Containers which are opened must be carefully reseal and kept unright to precent leakage. Observe label
precautions. Electrical installations/working materials must comply with the technological safety standards.
Minimum temperature allowed during storage and transportation: 10 °C (50 °F)
