PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS:
Fire Fighting Instructions: For fires involving this material, do not enter any enclosed or confined fire
space without proper protective equipment, including self-contained breathing apparatus.
Combustion Products: Highly dependent on combustion conditions. A complex mixture of airborne
solids, liquids, and gases including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and unidentified organic
compounds will be evolved when this material undergoes combustion.
SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Protective Measures: Eliminate all sources of ignition in the vicinity of the spill or released vapor. If
this material is released into the work area, evacuate the area immediately. Monitor area with
combustible gas indicator.
Spill Management: Stop the source of the release if you can do it without risk. Contain release to
prevent further contamination of soil, surface water or groundwater. Clean up spill as soon as possible,
observing precautions in Exposure Controls/Personal Protection. Use appropriate techniques such as
applying non-combustible absorbent materials or pumping. All equipment used when handling the
product must be grounded. A vapor suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors. Use clean
non-sparking tools to collect absorbed material. Where feasible and appropriate, remove contaminated
soil. Place contaminated materials in disposable containers and dispose of in a manner consistent with
applicable regulations.
Reporting: Report spills to local authorities and/or the U.S. Coast Guard's National Response Center at
[phone] as appropriate or required.
SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautionary Measures: Liquid evaporates and forms vapor (fumes) which can catch fire and burn with
explosive force. Invisible vapor spreads easily and can be set on fire by many sources such as pilot
lights, welding equipment, and electrical motors and switches. Fire hazard is greater as liquid
temperature rises above 29C (85F).
The hydrocarbon solvent in this product may accumulate at flammable or explosive levels in the head
space of storage containers. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not taste or swallow. Do
not breathe vapor or fumes. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep out of the reach of children.
General Handling Information: Avoid contaminating soil or releasing this material into sewage and
drainage systems and bodies of water.
Static Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when handling
this material. To minimize this hazard, bonding and grounding may be necessary but may not, by
themselves, be sufficient. Review all operations which have the potential of generating and accumulating
an electrostatic charge and/or a flammable atmosphere (including tank and container filling, splash filling,
tank cleaning, sampling, gauging, switch loading, filtering, mixing, agitation, and vacuum truck operations)
and use appropriate mitigating procedures. For more information, refer to OSHA Standard 29 CFR
1910.106, 'Flammable and Combustible Liquids', National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 77,
'Recommended Practice on Static Electricity', and/or the American Petroleum Institute (API)
Recommended Practice 2003, 'Protection Against Ignitions Arising Out of Static, Lightning, and Stray
Currents'.
General Storage Information: DO NOT USE OR STORE near heat, sparks, flames, or hot surfaces .
USE AND STORE ONLY IN WELL VENTILATED AREA. Keep container closed when not in use.
SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS:
Consider the potential hazards of this material (see Section 3), applicable exposure limits, job activities,
