Autoignition Temp:=371.1C, 700.F
Autoignition Temp Text:AP
Lower Limits:2.4
Upper Limits:17.4
Extinguishing Media:ALCOHOL TYPE FOAM, CO2, DRY CHEMICAL. USE WATER
SPRAY/WATER FOG FOR COOLING. ALTHOUGH WATER SOLUBLE, MAY NOT BE
PRACTICAL TO EXTINGUISH FIRE BY WATER DILUTION.
Fire Fighting Procedures:DO NOT ENTER FIRE AREA WITHOUT PROPER
PROTECTION. FIGHT FIRE FROM A SAFE DISTANCE/PROTECTED LOCATION.
HEAT MAY BUILD ENOUGH PRESSURE TO REPTURE CLOSED
CONTAINERS/SPREADING FIRE/INCREASING RISK OF BURN S/INJURIES. USE
WATER SPRAY/FOG FOR COOLING. AVOID FROTHING/STEAM EXPLOSION.
BURNING LIQUID MAY FLOAT ON WATER.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:HEAT FROM FIRE CAN GENERATE FLAMMABLE
VAPOR. WHEN MIXED WITH AIR AND EXPOSED TO IGNITION SOURCE, VAPOR
CAN BURN IN OPEN/ EXPLODE IN CONFINED. VAPORS MAYTRAVEL LONG
DISTANCES ALONG THE GROUND BEFORE IG NITING AND FLASHING BACK TO
VAPOR SOURCE. FINE SPRAYS/MISTS MAY BE COMBUSTIBLE AT TEMPERATURES
BELOW NORMAL FLASH POINT.

Spill Release Procedures:EVACUATE/LIMIT ACCESS. EQUIP RESPONDERS WITH
PROPER PROTECTION. PREVENT FLOW TO SEWER/PUBLIC WATERS. STOP
RELEASE. NOTIFY FIRE AND ENVIRONMENTAL AUTHORITIES. RESTRICT WATER
USE FOR CLEANUP. SLIPPERY W ALKING. SPREAD GRANULAR COVER. RECOVER
LARGE SPILL. SOAK UP SMALL SPILLS WITH INERT SOLIDS. USE SUITABLE
DISPOSAL CONTAINERS. ON WATER, MATERIAL IS SOLUBLE AND MAY
FLOAT/SINK. REPORT AS REQUIRED.

Other Precautions:DECONTAMINATION PROCEDURES: ISOLATE, VENT, DRAIN,
WASH AND PURGE SYSTEMS OR EQUIPMENT BEFORE MAINTENANCE OR REPAIR.
WEAR RECOMMENDED PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. OBSERVE PRECAUTIONS
PERTAINING TO C ONFINED SPACE ENTRY.

Respiratory Protection:NO SPECIAL RESPIRATORY PROTECTION IS RECOMMENDED
UNDER ANTICIPATED CONDITIONS OF NORMAL USE WITH ADEQUATE
VENTILATION.
Ventilation:NO SPECIAL VENTILATION IS RECOMMENDED UNDER ANTICIPATED
CONDITIONS OF NORMAL COMFORT CONTROL.
Protective Gloves:WHERE USE CAN RESULT IN SKIN CONTACT, PRACTICE GOOD
PERSONAL HYGIENE.
Eye Protection:EYE PROTECTION SUCH AS CHEMICAL SPLASH GOGGLES AND/OR
FACE SHIELD MUST BE WORN
Other Protective Equipment:NOT PROVIDED
Work Hygienic Practices:USE GOOD PERSONAL HYGIENE PRACTICES. WASH HANDS
BEFORE EATING, DRINKING, SMOKING, OR USING TOILET FACILITIES.
PROMPTLY REMOVE SOILED CLOTHING/WASH THOROUGHLY BEFORE REUSE.
Supplemental Safety and Health
SHOWER AFTER WORK USING SOAP AND WATER. NOT NORMALLY CONSIDERED A SKIN
HAZARD. WHERE USE CAN RESULT IN SKIN CONTACT, PRACTIVE GOOD
