Dry chemicals, sand, dolomite etc. Water spray, fog or mist. SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES Containers close to fire should be removed or cooled with water. Use water to keep fire exposed containers cool and disperse vapors. UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS Extremely flammable. Forms explosive mixtures with air. May travel considerable distance to source of ignition and flash back. Aerosol cans may explode in a fire. SPECIFIC HAZARDS Aerosol cans may explode when heated, due to excessive pressure build up. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS Provide adequate ventilation. In case of inadequate ventilation, use respiratory protection. Avoid inhalation of vapors and aerosol spray. ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS Do not discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. Contain spillages with sand, earth or any suitable absorbent material. SPILL CLEAN UP METHODS Wear necessary protective equipment. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE USAGE PRECAUTIONS Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. Avoid spilling, skin and eye contact. Ventilate well, avoid breathing vapors. Use approved respirator if air contamination is above accepted levels. 2

3 STORAGE PRECAUTIONS Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. Store in a cool and well-ventilated place. Aerosol cans must not be exposed to temperatures above 50 o C. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/ PERSONAL PROTECTION ENGINEERING MEASURES Provide adequate general and local exhaust ventilation.. HAND PROTECTION Use suitable protective gloves if risk of skin contact. EYE PROTECTION Use eye protection. Wear approved chemical safety goggles where eye exposure is reasonably probable. OTHER PROTECTION Wear appropriate clothing to prevent any possibility of liquid contact and repeated or prolonged vapor contact. HYGEINE MEASURES DO NOT SMOKE IN WORK AREA! Wash at the end of each shift and before eating, smoking and using the toilet. Promptly remove any clothing that becomes contaminated. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Use appropriate skin cream to prevent drying of skin. 9.
