2 SECTION 5: Fire Fighting Measures General Information: Extinguishing Media: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressuredemand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Vapors may be heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas. Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam. Flash Point: >140F Auto ignition Temperature: Explosion limits, Lower: Upper: NFPA Rating: (estimated) Health: 1; Flammability: 1; Instability: 1 SECTION 6: Accidental Release Measures General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8. Spills/Leaks: Pick up spill and place in suitable container. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Provide ventilation. SECTION 7: Handling and Storage Handling: Storage: Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Keep container closed when not in use. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. SECTION 8: Exposure Controls, Personal Protection Engineering Controls: Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low. Exposure Limits: Chemical name: ACGIH: NIOSH: OSHA Final PELS Page 2 of 5

3 SECTION 8: Exposure Controls, Personal Protection Cont d Personal Protective Equipment: Eyes: Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face protection regulations in 29 CFR or European Standard EN166. Clothing: Respirators: Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin exposure. Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin exposure. A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29 CFR and ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant respirator use.
