Use carbon dioxide, BC powder, polyvalent foam, water mist or water spray. On heating this product may be explosive and may emit toxic and/or irritating fumes and combustible gases including hydrogen cyanide. Under fire conditions this product may be explosive and may emit toxic and/or irritating fumes and corrosive gases including phosphorous oxides, nitrous vapors, hydrogen chloride, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Extremely flammable aerosol. Gas/vapour spreads at floor level and is an ignition hazard. Fire fighters should wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) operated in positive pressure mode. In case fire the product may be violently or explosively reactive. Use water spray to cool heat exposed containers and disperse vapours. This product should be prevented from entering drains and watercourses. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Emergency Procedures 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for Safe Handling Conditions for Safe Storage Wear appropriate personal protective equipment and clothing to prevent exposure. Extinguish or remove all sources ignition and stop leak if safe to do so. Increase ventilation. Evacuate all unprotected personnel. If possible contain the spill. Allow product to solidify, remove uncured foam with acetone. Use clean non-sparking tools to collect the solidified material and place into suitable labelled containers for subsequent recycling or disposal. Dispose waste according to the applicable local and national regulations. If contamination sewers or waterways occurs inform the local water authorities and EPA in accordance with local regulations. Wear appropriate protective clothing and equipment to prevent inhalation, skin and eye exposure. Handle and use the material in a well-ventilated area, away from sparks, flames and other ignition sources. Have emergency equipment (for fires, spills, leaks, etc.) readily available. Work from suitable, labelled, fire-resistant containers. Keep containers closed when not in use. Flamepro equipment is necessary in areas where the product is being used. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Earth or bond all equipment. Do not empty into drains. Ensure a high level personal hygiene is maintained when using this product, that is, always wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking or using the toilet facilities. This material is a SCHEDULED (S6) POISON and must be stored, handled and maintained according to the appropriate Commonwealth Regulations. Limit quantity material in storage. Restrict access to storage area. Post appropriate warning signs. Keep storage area separate from populated work areas. Inspect periodically for deficiencies. Consider leak detection and alarm systems, as required. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, out direct sunlight, away from heat and ignition sources. Store away from incompatible materials such as oxidizing materials, bases, acids and amines. Structural materials and lighting and ventilation systems in storage area should be corrosion resistant. Store cylinders upright on a level, firepro floor, secured in position. Protect from damage. Store full containers separately from empty ones. Label empty containers. Comply with all applicable regulations for the storage and handling compressed gases. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION National Exposure Standards No exposure value assigned for this specific material by the National Occupational Health and Safety Commission (NOHSC), Australia. However, the available exposure limits for ingredients are listed below:

3 CS: Page: 3 Biological Limit Values Engineering Controls Respiratory Protection Eye Protection Hand Protection Body Protection National Occupational Health And Safety Commission (NOHSC), Australia Exposure Standards: Substance TWA STEL NOTICES ppm mg/m³ ppm mg/m³ Polymethylene polyphenyl isocyanate Dimethyl ether TWA (Time Weighted Average): The average airborne concentration a particular substance when calculated over a normal eight-hour working day, for a five-day week. STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit): The average airborne concentration over a 1 minute period which should not be exceeded at any time during a normal eight-hour workday. No biological limits allocated. Provide sufficient ventilation to keep airborne levels below the exposure limits. Where vapours or mists are generated, particularly in enclosed areas, and natural ventilation is inadequate, a flamepro exhaust ventilation system is required. Refer to AS The storage and handling flammable and combustible liquids and AS/NZS :1997 : Classification hazardous areas - Examples area classification - General, for further information concerning ventilation requirements. If engineering controls are not effective in controlling airborne exposure then an approved respirator with a replaceable organic vapour filter should be used. Reference should be made to Australian/New Zealand Standards AS/NZS 171, Selection, Use and Maintenance Respiratory Protective Devices; and AS/NZS 1716, Respiratory Protective Devices, in order to make any necessary changes for individual circumstances. Safety glasses with side shields, goggles or full-face shield as appropriate should be used. Final choice appropriate eye/face protection will vary according to individual circumstances i.e. methods handling or engineering controls and according to risk assessments undertaken. Eye protection should conform with Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS Eye Protectors for Industrial Applications. Wear gloves impervious material. Final choice appropriate gloves will vary according to individual circumstances i.e. methods handling or according to risk assessments undertaken. Reference should be made to AS/NZS : Occupational protective gloves - Selection, use and maintenance. Suitable protective workwear, e.g. cotton overalls buttoned at neck and wrist is recommended. Chemical resistant apron is recommended where large quantities are handled. Industrial clothing should conform to the specifications detailed in AS/NZS 2919: Industrial clothing. 9.
