5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
A. Suitable (and unsuitable) extinguishing
media
B. Specific hazards arising from the
chemical
C. Special protective equipment and
precautions for
fire fighters
D. Fire and explosion hazard
OSHA-PEL
ACGIH-TLV
B. Appropriate engineering controls
Respiratory protection
Eye protection
Hand protection
Body protection
A. Appearance (Physical State, Colour Etc.)
B. Odour
C. Odor threshold
Use extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding fire.
If a battery ruptures, use dry chemical, soda ash, lime, sand or carbon dioxide.
Lead, lead compounds and sulfuric acid fume may be released during a fire
involving the product.
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and full fire-fighting protective
clothing.
B. Necessary measures to protect environment
Notify authorities and appropriate federal, state, and local agencies. Prevent
the product from spreading into the environment. Avoid direct discharge into
drains.
C. Methods and materials for containment and
cleaning up
SMALL SPILLS: Collect all released material in a plastic lined metal container.
If necessary neutralize the residue with a dilute solution of sodium carbonate.
Wash affected area.
LARGE SPILLS: Contain liquid using absorbent material, by digging trenches
or by building a dike. Absorb with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible
material. Neutralize the residue with a dilute solution of sodium carbonate.
Dispose of all contaminated materials in accordance with current local
regulations.
Not flammable.
Battery may rupture due to pressure buildup when exposed to excessive heat and
may be result in the release of corrosive materials.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
A. Necessary measures and protective gear to
protect
humans
If a battery ruptures, avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Do not touch
spilled material. Use personal protective equipment recommended in Section
8 (Exposure Controls/Personal Protection).
0.05 mg/m3 (Lead), 1 mg/m3 (Sulfuric acid), 0.5 mg/m3 (Antimony)
TWA 0.05 mg/m3 (Lead), TWA 0.2 mg/m3 (Sulfuric acid)
TWA 0.5 mg/m3(Antimony)
Use local exhaust ventilation if necessary to control airborne mist and vapor.
C. Individual protection measures
If significant mists or aerosols are generated an approved respirator is
recommended. If respiratory protection is required, institute a complete respiratory
protection program including selection, fit testing, training, maintenance and
inspection.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
A. Precautions for safe handling
B. Conditions for safe storage
(Including any incompatibilities)
Protect from physical damage.
Avoid contact with eyes. Store in a cool, dry, ventilated area away from sources of
heat, moisture, incompatibilities, and direct sunlight. Have emergency equipment
(for fires, spills, leaks, etc.) readily available.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
A. Occupational exposure limit(s), biological exposure standard
Characteristics
Not available
Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Wear chemical resistant gloves. Gloves should be replaced immediately if signs of
degradation are observed.
Use good work and personal hygiene practices to avoid exposure. Consider the
provision in the work area of a safety shower and eyewash. Always wash
thoroughly after handling chemicals.
9. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Off-white cloudy liquid with solid object.
