self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Use water spray to cool fire exposed surfaces and to protect personnel.
Unusual Fire Hazards: Combustible. Vapors are flammable and heavier than air. Vapors may travel across the
ground and reach remote ignition sources causing a flashback fire danger. Hazardous material. Firefighters should
consider protective equipment indicated in Section 8.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Oxides of carbon, incomplete combustion products, Smoke, Fume
SECTION 6
ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment, and emergency procedures: Evacuate spill area and keep unprotected
personnel away. Remove all sources of ignition. Ventilate area. Wear appropriate protective clothing as described in Section
8. Prevent contact with skin. Do not breathe vapors.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up: Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or
flames in immediate area). Contain and collect using inert absorbent materials and place in appropriate containers for
disposal. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas. In the case of a water spill, remove from
surface by skimming or with suitable absorbent. Seek advice of specialist if necessary.
Environmental hazards: Avoid releases to the environment. Report releases as required by local, state and federal
authorities.
SECTION 7
HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling: Prevent contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Do not breathe vapors or mists. Wash

SECTION 8
EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering controls
Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas.
Personal protective equipment
Eye / face protection
Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Skin protection
Wear chemical-resistant gloves, footwear and protective clothing appropriate for risk of exposure.
Contact glove manufacturer for specific information.
Respiratory protection
If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below recommended exposure
limits (where applicable) or to an acceptable level (in countries where exposure limits have not
been established), an approved respirator must be worn. In the United States of America, if
respirators are used, a program should be instituted to assure compliance with OSHA 29 CFR
1910.134. Respirator type: Air-purifying respirator with an appropriate, government approved
(where applicable), air-purifying filter, cartridge or canister
