Fire Fighting Procedures: Keep people away. Isolate fire and deny unnecessary entry. Stay
upwind. Keep out of low areas where gases (fumes) can accumulate. Water may not be effective in
extinguishing fire. Use water spray to cool fire exposed containers and fire affected zone until fire is
out and danger of reignition has passed. Immediately withdraw all personnel from the area in case of
rising sound from venting safety device or discoloration of the container. Burning liquids may be
extinguished by dilution with water. Do not use direct water stream. May spread fire. Eliminate
ignition sources. Move container from fire area if this is possible without hazard. Burning liquids may
be moved by flushing with water to protect personnel and minimize property damage.
Special Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing
apparatus (SCBA) and protective fire fighting clothing (includes fire fighting helmet, coat, trousers,
boots, and gloves). If protective equipment is not available or not used, fight fire from a protected
location or safe distance.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Contains flammable propellant. Aerosol cans exposed to fire
can rupture and become flaming projectiles. Propellant release may result in a fireball. Container may
vent and/or rupture due to fire. Electrically ground and bond all equipment. Flammable mixtures of
this product are readily ignited even by static discharge. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel a
long distance and accumulate in low lying areas. Ignition and/or flash back may occur. Flammable
mixtures may exist within the vapor space of containers at room temperature. Flammable
concentrations of vapor can accumulate at temperatures above flash point; see Section 9.
Hazardous Combustion Products: During a fire, smoke may contain the original material in addition
to combustion products of varying composition which may be toxic and/or irritating. Combustion
products may include and are not limited to: Carbon monoxide. Carbon dioxide.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Steps to be Taken if Material is Released or Spilled: Pump with explosion-proof equipment. If
available, use foam to smother or suppress. See Section 13, Disposal Considerations, for additional
information.
Personal Precautions: Use appropriate safety equipment. For additional information, refer to Section
8, Exposure Controls and Personal Protection. Evacuate area. Refer to Section 7, Handling, for
additional precautionary measures. Keep personnel out of low areas. Keep personnel out of confined
or poorly ventilated areas. Keep upwind of spill. Ventilate area of leak or spill. No smoking in area.
Only trained and properly protected personnel must be involved in clean-up operations. Confined
space entry procedures must be followed before entering the area. Eliminate all sources of ignition in
vicinity of spill or released vapor to avoid fire or explosion. Ground and bond all containers and
handling equipment. For large spills, warn public of downwind explosion hazard. Check area with
combustible gas detector before reentering area. Ground and bond all containers and handling
equipment. Vapor explosion hazard. Keep out of sewers. See Section 10 for more specific
information.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent from entering into soil, ditches, sewers, waterways and/or
groundwater. See Section 12, Ecological Information.
7. Handling and Storage
Handling
General Handling: Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Avoid contact with eyes. Wash
thoroughly after handling. Do not swallow. Avoid breathing vapor. Use only with adequate ventilation.
Keep container closed. No smoking, open flames or sources of ignition in handling and storage area.
Vapors are heavier than air and may travel a long distance and accumulate in low lying areas. Ignition
and/or flash back may occur. Ignition sources can include and are not limited to pilot lights, flames,
smoking, sparks, heaters, electrical equipment, and static discharges. Electrically bond and ground all
containers and equipment before transfer or use of material. Never use air pressure for transferring
product. Contents under pressure. Do not puncture or incinerate container. Containers, even those
that have been emptied, can contain vapors. Do not cut, drill, grind, weld, or perform similar operations
on or near empty containers. Use of non-sparking or explosion-proof equipment may be necessary,
depending upon the type of operation. Do not enter confined spaces unless adequately ventilated.
