5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
5.1 Fire & Explosion Hazards:
This material can burn but will not readily ignite. However, if involved in a fire, this product may
decompose at high temperatures to form toxic gases (e.g., CO, CO
2,
hydrocarbons).
5.2 Extinguishing Methods:
CO
2
, Dry Chemical, Alcohol Foam. Use water spray to cool containers.
5.3 Firefighting Procedures:
Keep containers cool until well after the fire is out. Fight fires as for surrounding materials. As in any
fire, wear MSHA/NIOSH approved self-contained breathing apparatus (pressure-demand) and full
protective gear. Keep containers cool until well after the fire is out. Use water spray to cool fire-
exposed surfaces and to protect personnel. Fight fire upwind. Prevent runoff from fire control or
dilution from entering sewers, drains, drinking water supply, or any natural waterway. Firefighters
must use full bunker gear including NIOSH-approved positive pressure self-contained breathing
apparatus to protect against potential hazardous combustion or decomposition products and oxygen
deficiencies.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
6.1 Spills:
Before cleaning any spill individuals involved in cleanup must wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment. Plastic
or rubber gloves, respirator, eye protection and apron may be required for clean-up of large spills. No special
precautions are required for intact packaging containing this product. If product is crushed, use respiratory protection
equipment. Do not use compressed air to clean up any residue. Use a wet method or vacuums equipped with High
Efficiency Particulate (HEPA) filters to clean up any residues from this product. Waste must be placed in dust tight
containers or sealed plastic bags for disposal. Label properly. Keep spills and cleaning runoffs out of drains, municipal
sewers and open bodies of water.
7. HANDLING & STORAGE INFORMATION
