when fighting fires involving this material.
Protective Equipment: A s in any fire, wear Self-C ontained Breathing Apparatus (SC BA ), MSHA /NIO SH
(approved or equivalent) and full protective gear.
NFPA Ratings:
NFP A Health: 3
NFP A Flammability: 1

SEC TION 6 - AC C IDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personnel Precautions: Corrosive. Use proper personal protective equipment as listed in section 8.
Environmental Precautions: A void runoff into storm sewers, ditches, and waterways.
Spill Cleanup Measures: Neutralize residue with appropriate neutralizer. Do not attempt to neutralize large
quantities of material unless measures to control reactivity and heat generation
have been taken. A bsorb spill with inert material (e.g.., dry sand or earth), then
place in a chemical waste container. Provide ventilation.
SEC TION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE
Handling: Use with adequate ventilation. A void breathing vapor and contact with eyes, skin
and clothing. C orrosive. Use proper personal protective equipment as listed in
section 8.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area away from sources of heat, combustible
materials, and incompatible substances. Keep container tightly closed when not in
use.
Hygiene Practices: Wash thoroughly after handling. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Avoid inhaling
vapor or mist.
SEC TION 8 - EXPOSURE C ONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTEC TION - EXPOSURE GUIDELINES
Engineering Controls: Use appropriate engineering control such as process enclos ures, local exhaust
ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below
recommended exposure limits. Good general ventilation should be sufficient to
control airborne levels. Where such systems are not effective wear suitable
personal protective equipment, whic h performs satisfactorily and meets O SHA or
other recognized standards. Consult with local procedures for selection, training,
inspection and maintenance of the personal protective equipment.
Eye/Face Protection: Wear appropriate protective glasses or splash goggles as described by 29 CFR
1910.133, O SHA eye and face protection regulation, or the European standard EN
166.
Skin Protection Description: Chemical-resistant gloves and chemical goggles, face-shield and synthetic apron
or coveralls should be used to prevent contact with eyes, skin or clothing.
Respiratory Protection: A NIO SH approved air-purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or
canis ter may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne
concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. Protection provided by air
purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if
there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known,
or any other circumstances where air purifying respirators may not provide
adequate protection.
O ther Protective: Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash
fac ility and a safety shower.
