Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical

Flammable. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Containers may
explode when heated. Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating gases and vapors. Keep product and empty
container away from heat and sources of ignition.

Hazardous Combustion Products

Carbon monoxide (CO) Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Protective Equipment and Precautions for Firefighters
As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full
protective gear.

6. Accidental release measures

Personal Precautions Use personal protective equipment. Remove all sources of ignition. Take precautionary
measures against static discharges. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.
Environmental Precautions Avoid release to the environment. See Section 12 for additional ecological information.

Methods for Containment and Clean Remove all sources of ignition. Soak up with inert absorbent material. Keep in suitable,
Up closed containers for disposal. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Use
spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment.

7. Handling and storage

Handling Wear personal protective equipment. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Avoid
ingestion and inhalation. Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition.
Use only non-sparking tools. Use explosion-proof equipment. Take precautionary measures
against static discharges. To avoid ignition of vapors by static electricity discharge, all metal
parts of the equipment must be grounded.

Storage Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat
and sources of ignition. Flammables area.
