Flash Point Method:CC
Flash Point:=-30.C, -22.F
Autoignition Temp:=100.C, 212.F
Lower Limits:1.3
Upper Limits:50.0
Extinguishing Media:DRY CHEMICAL (ABC); CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2); WATER FOG
OR WATER SPRAY. IT IS BEST EXTINGUISHED BY THE USE OF WATER FOG OR
SPRAY.
Fire Fighting Procedures:COMPLETELY BLANKET THE FIRE WITH WATER FOG OR
WATER SPRAY TO PUT OUT THE FIRE AND COOL THE EQUIPMENT. THIS WILL
PREVENT RE-IGNITION OF CARBON DISULFIDE. CARBON DIOXIDE AND DRY
CHEMICAL MAY BE USED ON SMALL FIRES. FIREFIGHTERS SHOULD WEAR
FULL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND NIOSH APPROVED SELF-CONTAINED
BREATHING APPARATUS
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:CARBON DISULFIDE IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE,
VOLATILE LIQUID WITH LOW FLASH POINT, WIDE EXPLOSIVE RANGE AND AN
EXTREMELY LOW AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE. CONTACT OF VAPOR IN
CONCENTRATION WITHIN EXPLOSIVE RANGE WITH MATERIALS HAVING
TEMPERATURES OF 212F/MORE MAY CAUSE AUTOIGNITION. THIS MATERIAL IS
SENSITIVE TO STATIC DISCHARGE.

Spill Release Procedures:VENTILATE AREA OF SPILL. ELIMINATE ALL SOURCES
OF IGNITION. REMOVE ALL NON-ESSENTIAL PERSONNEL FROM AREA. CLEAN-UP
PERSONNEL SHOULD WEAR PROPER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND CLOTHING.
ABSORB MATERIAL WITH ABSORBANT AND CONTAINERIZE FOR DISPOSAL.
Neutralizing Agent:NOT RELEVANT.

Handling and Storage Precautions:STORE IN A COOL, DRY, WELL-VENTILATED
AREA AWAY FROM FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AND SOURCES OF COMBUSTION.
FIREFIGHTING EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE WITHIN EASY REACH. HIGHLY
VOLATILE. DO NOT STORE IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT .
Other Precautions:DO NOT BREATHE VAPORS. USE WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
AVOID CONTACT WITH SKIN, EYES AND CLOTHING. WASH THOROUGHLY AFTER
HANDLING. REMOVE AND WASH CONTAMINATED CLOTHING.

Respiratory Protection:A NIOSH/MSHA CHEMICAL CARTRIDGE RESPIRATOR
SHOULD BE WORN IF PEL OR TLV IS EXCEEDED.
Ventilation:LOCAL/MECHANICAL:YES
Protective Gloves:NITRILE, BUTYL OR EQUIVALENT
Eye Protection:SPLASH PROOF CHEMICAL SAFETY GOGGLES SHOULD BE WORN AT
ALL TIMES.
Other Protective Equipment:LAB COAT, EYE WASH AND SAFETY SHOWER.
Work Hygienic Practices:NOT PROVIDED.
