5. Fire-fighting Measures
Flash Point, °F >200 (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. Keep containers tightly closed. FLASH
POINT IS TESTED TO BE GREATER THAN 200 DEGREES F.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: 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: 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. 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.
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.
