Advice for firefighters

Page 3 of 14
Product name: KATHON™ WT 1.5% BIOCIDE Issue Date: 04/01/2015

Fire Fighting Procedures: Cool containers/tanks with water spray. Minimize exposure. Do not
breathe fumes. Contain run-off.

Special protective equipment for firefighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and
protective suit.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Wear a NIOSH
approved (or equivalent) respirator (with organic vapor/acid gas cartridge and a dust/mist filter) during
spill clean-ups and deactivation of this material. MATERIAL IS CORROSIVE. Protective clothing,
including chemical splash goggles, nitrile or butyl rubber full length gloves, rubber apron, or clothing
made of nitrile or butyl rubber, and rubber overshoes must be worn during spill clean-ups and
deactivation of this material. If material comes in contact with the skin during clean-up operations,
IMMEDIATELY remove all contaminated clothing and wash exposed skin areas with soap and water.
See SECTION 4, First Aid Measures, for further information.

Environmental precautions: Do not allow material to contaminate ground water system. Prevent
product from entering drains.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up: WARNING: KEEP SPILLS AND
CLEAN-UP RESIDUALS OUTOF MUNICIPAL SEWERS AND OPEN BODIES OF WATER. Adsorb
the spill with spill pillows or inert solids such as clay or vermiculite, and transfer contaminated
materials to suitable containers for disposal. Deactivate spill area with freshly prepared solution of 5%
sodium bicarbonate and 5% sodium hypochlorite in water. Apply solution to the spill area at a ratio of
10 volumes deactivation solution per estimated volume of residual spill to deac tivate any residual
active ingredient. Let stand for 30 minutes. Flush the spill area with copious amounts of water to
chemical sewer (if in accordance with local procedures, permits and regulations). DO NOT add
deactivation solution to the waste pail to deactivate the adsorbed material. See Section 13, “Disposal
Considerations”, for information regarding the disposal of contained materials.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Precautions for safe handling: This material is corrosive. For personal protection see section 8. Do
not handle material near food, feed or drinking water.

Conditions for safe storage: Keep in a well-ventilated place. The product as supplied may evolve
gas (largely carbon dioxide) slowly. To prevent the buildup of pressure the product is packaged in
specially vented containers, where necessary. Keep this product in the original container when not in
use. Container must be stored and transported in an upright position to prevent spilling the contents
through the vent, where fitted. Do not store this material in containers made of the following: steel Do
not store this material near food, feed or drinking water.
CONTAINERS MAY BE HAZARDOUS WHEN EMPTY. Since emptied containers retain product
residue follow all MSDS and label warnings even after container is emptied. Expiration date based
only on retention of >95% actives during storage at 20ºC-25ºC (68ºF-77ºF).

Storage stability
Storage temperature: 1 - 55 °C (34 - 131 °F)

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Control parameters
Exposure limits are listed below, if they exist.
Component Regulation Type of listing Value/Notation
5-Chloro-2-methyl-4- Rohm and Haas TWA 0.076 mg/m3
isothiazolin-3-one
Rohm and Haas STEL 0.23 mg/m3
2-Methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one Rohm and Haas TWA 1.5 mg/m3
Rohm and Haas STEL 4.5 mg/m3

Exposure controls
Engineering controls: Use local exhaust ventilation with a minimum capture velocity of 150 ft/min.
(0.75 m/sec.) at the point of dust or mist evolution. Refer to the current edition of “Industrial
Ventilation: A Manual of Recommended Practice” published by the American Conference of
Governmental Industrial Hygienists for information on the design, installation, use, and maintenance of
exhaust systems.

Protective measures: Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash
facility and a safety shower.

Individual protection measures

Eye/face protection: Use chemical splash goggles and face shield (ANSI Z87.1 or approved
equivalent). Eye protection worn must be compatible with respiratory protection system
employed.
Skin protection
Hand protection: Chemical-resistant gloves should be worn whenever this material is
handled. The glove(s) listed below may provide protection against permeation.
(Gloves of other chemically resistant materials may not provide adequate protection):
Butyl-rubber. Nitrile rubber. PVC gloves >1 mm thickness Gloves should be
removed and replaced immediately if there is any indication of degradation or
chemical breakthrough. Rinse and remove gloves immediately after use. Wash
hands with soap and water. NOTE: Material is a possible skin sensitizer.
Other protection: Wear as appropriate: Chemical resistant apron complete suit
protecting against chemicals
Respiratory protection: Typical use of this material does not result in workplace exposures
that exceed the exposure limits listed in the Exposure Limit Information Section. For those
special workplace conditions where the listed exposure limits are exceeded, a respiratory
protection program meeting OSHA 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed.
For concentrations up to 10 times the exposure limit, wear a properly fitted NIOSH approved
(or equivalent) half-mask or full facepiece air purifying respirator equipped with organic vapor
cartridges and N95 filters. If oil mist is present, use R95 or P95 filters. For those unlikely
situations where exposure may greatly exceed the listed exposure limits (i.e. greater than 10-
fold), or in any emergency situation, wear a properly fitted NIOSH approved (or equivalent)
self-contained breathing apparatus in the pressure demand mode or a full facepiece airline
respirator in the pressure demand mode with emergency escape provision. See SECTION 6,
Accidental Release Measures, for respirator and protective clothing requirements for spill
clean-up and decontamination of this material.
