Flash Point:=13.C, 55.4F
Autoignition Temp:=362.8C, 685.F
Lower Limits:3.3(ETHANOL)
Upper Limits:19 (ETHANOL)
Extinguishing Media:USE WATER, DRY CHEMICAL, CHEMICAL FOAM,
ALCOHOL-RESISTANT-FOAM. DO NOT USE STRAIGHT STREAMS OF WATER. LARGE
FIRE: DRY CHEMICAL, CARBON DIOXIDE, ALCOHOL-RESISTANT FOAM.
Fire Fighting Procedures:AS IN ANY FIRE, WEAR SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING
APPARATUS IN PRESSURE-DEMAND, MSHA/NIOSH (APPROVED OR EQUIVALENT)
AND FULL PROTECTIVE GEAR. USE WATER SPRAY TO COOL FIRE-EXPOSED
CONTAINERS. COOL CONTAINE RS WITH FLOODING QUANTITIES OF WATER
UNTIL WELL AFTER FIRE IS OUT.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:VAPORS MAY FORM AN EXPLOSIVE MIXTURE WITH
AIR. VAPORS CAN TRAVEL TO A SOURCE OF IGNITION AND FLASSH BACK.
CONTAINERS MAY EXPLODE IN HEAT OF FIRE. FLAMMABLE LIQUID. MAY FORM
EXPLOSIVE PEROXIDES. VAPORS ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR. THEY CAN SPREAD
ALONG THE GROUND AND COLLECT IN LOW OR CONFINED AREAS.

Spill Release Procedures:USE PROPER PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT.
ABSORB SPILL WITH INERT MATERIAL ( E.G. DRY SAND OR EARTH), THEN
PLACE INTO A CHEMICAL WASTE CONTAINER. REMOVE ALL SOURCES OF
IGNITION. A VAPOR SUPPRESSING F OAM MAY BE USED TO REDUCE VAPORS.
Neutralizing Agent:NOT RELEVANT

Handling and Storage Precautions:KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT, SPARKS, FLAME AND
OTHE SOURCES OF IGNITION. STORE IN A TIGHTLY CLOSED CONTAINER.
STORE IN A COOL, DRY, WELL-VENTILATED AREA AWAY FROM INCOMPATIBLE
SUBSTANCES. AVOID CONTACT WITH H EAT, SPARKS AND FLAME. USE WITH
ADEQUATE VENTILATION. GROUND AND BOND CONTAINERS WHEN TRANSFERRING.
Other Precautions:WASH THOROUGHLY AFTER HANDLING. AVOID CONTACT WITH
EYES, SKIN AND CLOTHING. EMPTY CONTAINERS RETAIN PRODUCT RESIDUE
AND CAN BE DANGEROUS. DO NOT PRESSURIZE, CUT, WELD, BRAZE, SOLDER,
DRILL, GRIND OR EXPOSE EMPTY CONTAINERS TO HEAT SPARKS OR OPEN
FLAMES.

Respiratory Protection:FOLLOW THE OSHA RESPIRATOR REGULATIONS FOUND IN
29 CFR 1910.134 OR EUROPEAN STANDARD EN 149. ALWAYS USE A NIOSH OR
EUROPEAN STANDARD EN 149 APPROVED RESPIRATOR.
Ventilation:USE ADEQUATE GENERAL OR LOCAL EXHAUST VNTILATION TO KEEP
AIRBORNE CONCENTRATIONS BELOW THE PERMISSABLE EXPOSURE LIMITS.
Protective Gloves:APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE GLOVES TO PREVENT SKIN
EXPOSURE.
Eye Protection:APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE EYEGLASSES OR CHEMICAL SAFETY
GOGGLES (29 CFR 1910.133).
Other Protective Equipment:WEAR APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING TO
PREVENT SKIN EXPOSURE.
Work Hygienic Practices:WASH THOROUGHTLY AFTER HANDLING.
