Extinguishing Media:USE WATER FOG, DRY CHEMICAL, CARBON DIOXIDE, OR
FOAM EXTINGUISHING AGENTS. EXTINGUISH LARGE FIRES WITH LARGE
AMOUNTS OF WATER SPRAY, FOG OR FOAM FROM A SAFE/PROTECTED POSITION.
Fire Fighting Procedures:EVACUATE NON-ESSENTIAL PERSONNEL FROM FIRE
AREA. FIREFIGHTERS WEAR FULL-FACE, SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING
APPARATUS & IMPERVIOUS PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. IF POSSIBLE, MOVE
CONTAINERS FROM FIRE AREA. IF NOT L EAKING, KEEP FIRE EXPOSED
CONTAINERS COOL WITH WATER FOG OR SPRAY TO PREVENT RUPTURE DUE TO
EXCESSIVE HEAT.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:THIS PRODUCT IS A COMBUSTIBLE LIQUID.
PEROXIDES & PEROXIDE DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS ARE FLAMMABLE & CAN
IGNITE WITH EXPLOSIVE FORCE IF CONFINED. THIS PRODUCT CAN PRODUCE
FLAMMABLE VAPORS WHICH MAY TRAVE L TO A SOURCE OF IGNITION & FLASH
BACK.

Spill Release Procedures:REMOVE SOURCES OF IGNITION FROM AREA. STOP
SOURCE OF SPILL. IF TOOLS NEEDED, USE NON-SPARKING. DIKE AREA TO
PREVENT SPREADING SPILL. EVACUATE NON-ESSENTIAL PERSONNEL UPWIND.
PERSON ENTERING AN AREA OF SIGNIFICANT SPILL OR UNKNOWN,
CONCENTRATION OF GAS OR VAPOR: USE NIOSH-APPROVED,
POSITIVE-PRESSURE/PRESSURE DEMAND, SCBA. PROTECT SKIN & EYES. SOAK
UP SPILL WITH ABSORBENT & PLACE IN CONTAINER.

Handling and Storage Precautions:WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING TO AVOID EYE
& SKIN CONTACT. WASH THOROUGHLY AFTER HANDLING. ELECTRICALLY
GROUNDED TANKS & CONTAINERS ALWAYS USED AS NON-SPARKING,
ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED HAND TOOLS & APPLIANCE S. GROUND OR BOND TO
GROUND VESSELS WHEN TRANSFERRING TO PREVENT ACCUMULATION OF STATIC
ELECTRICITY.
Other Precautions:SEE NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE ON HANDLING/ STORAGE. TO
INSURE PRODUCT QUALITY, STORAGE TEMPS SHOULD NOT EXCEED MAX STORAGE
TEMP: 86F/30C. TO PREVENT POSSIBLE SELF-ACCELERATING DECOMPOSITION
TEMP MUST NOT EXCEED 131F (55C). STORE AWAY FROM AMINES, ACIDS
ALKALIS & HEAVY METAL COMPOUNDS. (DRIERS, METAL SO APS &
ACCELERATORS).

Respiratory Protection:USE NIOSH-APPROVED ORGANIC VAPOR RESPIRATOR WITH
DUST/MIST/FUME FILTERS TO REDUCE POTENTIAL FOR INHALATION EXPOSURE
IF USE CONDITIONS GENERATE VAPOR/MIST/AEROSOL & ADEQUATE
VENTILATION.( WELL-VENTILAT ED AREA) NOT AVAILABLE. WHERE EXPOSURE
NECESSITATES HIGHER LEVEL OF PROTECTION, USE NIOSH-APPROVED,
POSITIVE-PRESSURE/PRESSURE-DEMAND, AIR-SUPPLIED RESPIRATOR.
Ventilation:LOCAL EXHAUST VENTILATION, ENCLOSED SYSTEM DESIGN,
CONTINUOUS MONITORING DEVICES, PROCESS ISOLATION & REMOTE CONTROL
ARE TRADITIONAL EXPOSURE CONTROL TECHNIQUES
Protective Gloves:PERMEATION RESISTANT GLOVES.
Eye Protection:CHEMICAL GOGGLES &/OR A FULL FACE SHIELD MUST BE WORN
WHENEVER HANDLING PRODUCT
Other Protective Equipment:SAFETY SHOWERS, WITH QUICK OPENING VALVES
THAT STAY OPEN, EYE WASH FOUNTAINS, WITH GENTLE FLOW OF COOL TO
TEPID TAP WATER, READILY AVAILABLE IN ALL AREAS WHERE MATERIAL IS
HANDLED/STORED.
