Flash Point, °F 230 (Setaflash)
Extinguishing Media: Alcohol Film Forming Foam, Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Dry Sand
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted. Keep containers tightly closed. FLASH
POINT IS TESTED TO BE GREATER THAN 200 DEGREES F.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Containers may explode when
heated. Water may be used to cool closed containers to prevent buildup of steam. If water is used, fog nozzles are preferred.
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. Sweep up gently to avoid dust cloud formation. Neutralize liquid acid spills with
sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3). If spilled, contain spilled material and remove with inert absorbent. Dispose of contaminated
absorbent, container, and unused contents in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations. Do not incinerate closed
containers
7. Handling and Storage
HANDLING: Wash thoroughly after handling. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with
skin. Avoid contact with water. 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.
STORAGE: Avoid excess heat. Keep container closed when not in use. Store in a dry, well ventilated place. Keep container tightly
closed when not in use.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety
shower. 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: Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face
protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European Standard EN166. 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.
