Flash Point:16 F (-9 C)
Extinguishing Media:alcohol resistant foam, carbon dioxide, regular dry
chemical, water Large fires: Use alcohol-resistant foam or flood
with fine water spray.
Fire Fighting Procedures:Move container from fire area if it can be
done without risk. Dike for later disposal. Do not scatter spilled
material with high-pressure water streams. Cool containers with
water spray until well after the fire is out. Stay away from the
ends of tanks. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from
venting safety device or any discoloration of tanks due to fire.
For tank, rail car or tank truck, evacuation radius: 800 meters
(1/2 mile). Do not attempt to extinguish fire unless flow of
material can be stopped first. Flood with fine water spray. Do not
scatter spilled material with high-pressure water streams. Cool
containers with water spray until well after the fire is out. Apply
water from a protected location or from a safe distance. Avoid
inhalation of material or combustion by-products. Stay upwind and
keep out of low areas.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:Severe fire hazard.

Spill Release Procedures:Avoid heat, flames, sparks and other sources
of ignition. Do not touch spilled material. Stop leak if possible
without personal risk. Reduce vapors with water spray. Small
spills: Absorb with sand or other non-combustible material. Collect
spilled material in appropriate container for disposal. Large
spills: Dike for later disposal. Remove sources of ignition. Keep
unnecessary people away, isolate hazard area and deny entry.
Neutralizing Agent:

Handling and Storage Precautions:Store and handle in accordance with
all current regulations and standards.
Other Precautions:

Respiratory Protection:Under conditions of frequent use or heavy
exposure, respiratory protection may be needed. Respiratory
protection is ranked in order from minimum to maximum. Consider
warning properties before use. Any supplied-air respirator with a
full facepiece that is operated in a pressure-demand or other
positive-pressure mode. Any self-contained breathing apparatus that
has a full facepiece and is operated in a pressure-demand or other
positive-pressure mode.
Ventilation:Based on available information, additional ventilation is
not required. Ensure compliance with applicable exposure limits.
Protective Gloves:Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves.
Eye Protection:Wear splash resistant safety goggles. Provide an
emergency eye wash fountain and quick drench shower in the
immediate work area.
Other Protective Equipment:Wear appropriate chemical resistant
clothing.
