Flash Point, °F 105 (Calculated)

Extinguishing Media: Alcohol Film Forming Foam, Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Dry Sand, Water Fog

UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted. Closed containers may explode when

exposed to extreme heat due to buildup of steam. Keep containers tightly closed. Combustible liquid and vapor.

SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: Evacuate area and fight fire from a safe distance. Use water spray to keep fire-

exposed containers cool. Containers may explode when heated.

6. Accidental Release Measures

STEPS TO BE TAKEN IF MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Dispose of according to local, state (provincial) and federal

regulations. Do not incinerate closed containers. Remove all sources of ignition, ventilate area and remove with inert absorbent

and non-sparking tools.

7. Handling and Storage

HANDLING: Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash hands before eating. Remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse.

Use only with adequate ventilation. Follow all MSDS/label precautions even after container is emptied because it may retain product

residues. Avoid breathing fumes, vapors, or mist. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing.

STORAGE: Store in a dry, well ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Keep containers tightly closed.

Isolate from heat, electrical equipment, sparks and open flame. Do not store above 120 ° F. Store large quantities in buildings

designed and protected for storage of NFPA Class II combustible liquids. Avoid excess heat.

8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne

levels below recommended exposure limits. Prevent build-up of vapors by opening all doors and windows to achieve cross-

ventilation.

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must

be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use.

SKIN PROTECTION: Use gloves to prevent prolonged skin contact. Nitrile or Neoprene gloves may afford adequate skin

protection.

EYE PROTECTION: Use safety eyewear designed to protect against splash of liquids.

OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Refer to safety supervisor or industrial hygienist for further guidance regarding types of

personal protective equipment and their applications.

HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Wash thoroughly with soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking. Remove contaminated clothing

immediately and launder before reuse.
