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:AS IN ANY FIRE, PREVENT HUMAN EXPOSURE TO
FIRE, SMOKE, FUMES OR PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION. EVACUATE
NON-ESSENTIAL PERSONNEL FORM THE FIRE AREA. FIREFIGHTERS SHOULD
WEAR FULL-FACE, SELF-CONTAINED BREATHIN G APPARATUS AND IMPERVIOUS
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. IF POSSIBLE, MOVE CONTAINERS FROM THE FIRE
AREA.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:IF NOT LEAKING, KEEP FIRE EXPOSED
CONTAINERS COOL WITH A WATER FOG OR SPRAY TO PREVENT RUPTURE DUE TO
EXCESSIVE HEAT. HIGH PRESSURE WATER MAY SPREAD PRODUCT FROM BROKEN
CONTAINERS INCREASING CONTAMINA TION OR FIRE HAZARD.THIS IS A

PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. SOAK UP LIQUID WITH A SUITABLE ABSORBENT.
SWEEP UP ABSORBED MATERIAL AND PLACE IN A CHEMICAL WASTE CONTAINER
FOR DISPOSAL.

Handling and Storage Precautions:TO ENSURE PRODUCT QUALITY, STORAGE
TEMPERATURES SHOULD NOT EXCEED 86F (30C). TO PREVENT POSSIBLE
SELF-ACCELERATING DECOMPOSITION, TEMEPRATURES IN STORAGE FACILITY
MUST NOT EXCEED 131F (55C). KEEP CON TAINER TIGHTLY CLOSED. STORE
AWAY FROM AMINES, ACIDS, ALKALIS AND HEAVY METAL COMPOUNDS (METAL
SOAP)
Other Precautions:WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING WHEN HANDLING PRODUCT. WASH
THOROUGHLY AFTER HANDLING. ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED TANKS AND
CONTAINERS SHOULD ALWAYS BE USED AS SHOULD NON-SPARKING,
ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED HAND TOOL S AND APPLIANCES. EMPTIED CONTAINER
MAY RETAIN PRODUCT RESIDUES. FOLLOW ALL WARNINGS EVEN AFTER CONT
AINER IS EMPTIED.

Respiratory Protection:USE A NIOSH-APPROVED ORGANIC VAPOR RESPIRATOR
WITH DUST, MIST AND FUME FILTERS TO REDUCE POTENTIAL FOR INHALATION
EXPOSURE IF USE CONDITIONS GENERATE VAPOR, MIST OR AEROSOL AND
ADEQUATE VENTILATION IS NOT AVAILABLE. WHERE EXPOSURE POTENTIAL
NECESSITATES A HIGHER LEVEL OF PROTECTION, USE A NIOSH-APPROVED,
POSITIVE PRESSURE AIR-SUPPLIED RESPIRATOR.
Ventilation:LOCAL EXHAUST VENTILATION, ENCLOSED SYSTEM DESIGN,
CONTINUOUS MONITORING DEVICES, PROCESS ISOLATION AND REMOTE CONTROL
ARE TECHNIQUES TO BE USED.
Protective Gloves:PERMEATION RESISTANT GLOVES.
Eye Protection:CHEMICAL GOGGLES AND/OR A FULL FACE SHIELD
Other Protective Equipment:PERMEATION RESISTANT CLOTHING, GLOVES AND
FOOTWARE. SAFETY SHOWERS AND EYE WASH FOUNTAINS AND QUICK OPENING
