Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.

Unsuitable media

High volume water jet

Specific hazards

Fire Hazard. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Flash back possible over considerable distance. Beware of vapours accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapours can accumulate in low areas.

Instructions

Use water spray to cool unopened containers.

Firefighter Protection

Use personal protective equipment.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Remove all sources of ignition. Ensure clean-up is conducted by trained personnel only. Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8.

Large spill

For large spills, dike spilled material or otherwise contain material to ensure runoff does not reach a waterway.

Environmental

Do not allow contact with soil, surface or ground water.

Cleanup methods

Eliminate all ignition sources if safe to do so. Stop leak if safe to do so. Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to local / national regulations (see section 13). Flush away traces with water.

Materials: non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite)

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Use only with adequate ventilation. Keep away from fire, sparks and heated surfaces. Take necessary action to avoid static electricity discharge (which might cause ignition of organic vapours). Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Open drum carefully as content may be under pressure. Do not breathe spray, vapour. In case of mechanical malfunction, or if in contact with unknown dilution of product, wear full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).

Storage

Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed. Store in suitable labeled containers.

Hygiene

Wash hands thoroughly after handling.

Fire prevention

Keep away from fire, sparks and heated surfaces. Take necessary action to avoid static electricity discharge (which might cause ignition of organic vapours).

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Effective exhaust ventilation system. Maintain air concentrations below occupational exposure standards.

Hands

No special protective equipment required.

Eyes

Safety glasses with side-shields

Respiratory

None required if airborne concentrations are maintained below the exposure limit listed in Exposure Limit Information. Use certified respiratory protection equipment meeting EU requirements(89/656/EEC, (EU) 2016/425), or equivalent, when respiratory risks cannot be avoided or sufficiently limited by technical means of collective protection or by measures, methods or procedures of work organization.

Skin/Body

No special protective equipment required.

Environmental

Consider the provision of containment around storage vessels.
