5.3. Special protective actions for fire-fighters

Water may not effectively extinguish fire; however, it should be used to keep fire-exposed containers and surfaces cool and
prevent explosive rupture. Wear full protective clothing, including helmet, self-contained, positive pressure or pressure
demand breathing apparatus, bunker coat and pants, bands around arms, waist and legs, face mask, and protective covering
for exposed areas of the head.

SECTION 6: Accidental release measures

6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Evacuate area. Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. Use only non-sparking tools.
Ventilate the area with fresh air. For large spill, or spills in confined spaces, provide mechanical ventilation to disperse or
exhaust vapors, in accordance with good industrial hygiene practice. Warning! A motor could be an ignition source and
could cause flammable gases or vapors in the spill area to burn or explode. Refer to other sections of this SDS for
information regarding physical and health hazards, respiratory protection, ventilation, and personal protective equipment.

6.2. Environmental precautions

Avoid release to the environment. For larger spills, cover drains and build dykes to prevent entry into sewer systems or
bodies of water.

6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Contain spill. Working from around the edges of the spill inward, cover with bentonite, vermiculite, or commercially
available inorganic absorbent material. Mix in sufficient absorbent until it appears dry. Remember, adding an absorbent
material does not remove a physical, health, or environmental hazard. Collect as much of the spilled material as possible
using non-sparking tools. Place in a metal container approved for transportation by appropriate authorities. Clean up
residue with an appropriate solvent selected by a qualified and authorised person. Ventilate the area with fresh air. Read and
follow safety precautions on the solvent label and Safety Data Sheet. Seal the container. Dispose of collected material as
soon as possible in accordance with applicable local/regional/national/international regulations.

SECTION 7: Handling and storage

7.1. Precautions for safe handling
For industrial/occupational use only. Not for consumer sale or use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been
read and understood. Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. Use only non-sparking tools.
Take precautionary measures against static discharge. Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. Do not get in
eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Avoid release to the environment. Avoid contact with oxidising agents (eg. chlorine, chromic acid etc.) Keep away from
reactive metals (eg. Aluminum, zinc etc.) to avoid the formation of hydrogen gas that could create an explosion hazard.
Wear low static or properly grounded shoes. Use personal protective equipment (eg. gloves, respirators…) as required. To
minimize the risk of ignition, determine applicable electrical classifications for the process using this product and select
specific local exhaust ventilation equipment to avoid flammable vapor accumulation. Ground/bond container and receiving
equipment if there is potential for static electricity accumulation during transfer.

7.2. Conditions for safe storage including any incompatibilities

Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep cool. Keep container tightly closed to prevent contamination with water or air. If
contamination is suspected, do not reseal container. Store away from heat. Store away from acids. Store away from
oxidising agents.

Limits and/or control dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. If ventilation is not adequate, use respiratory protection equipment.
Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment.

8.2.2. Personal protective equipment (PPE)

Eye/face protection

Select and use eye/face protection to prevent contact based on the results of an exposure assessment. The following eye/face
protection(s) are recommended:
Indirect vented goggles.

Skin/hand protection
Select and use gloves and/or protective clothing approved to relevant local standards to prevent skin contact based on the
results of an exposure assessment. Selection should be based on use factors such as exposure levels, concentration of the
substance or mixture, frequency and duration, physical challenges such as temperature extremes, and other use conditions.
Consult with your glove and/or protective clothing manufacturer for selection of appropriate compatible gloves/protective
clothing. Note: Nitrile gloves may be worn over polymer laminate gloves to improve dexterity.
Gloves made from the following material(s) are recommended: Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA).
Polymer laminate

Respiratory protection

An exposure assessment may be needed to decide if a respirator is required. If a respirator is needed, use respirators as part
of a full respiratory protection program. Based on the results of the exposure assessment, select from the following
respirator type(s) to reduce inhalation exposure:
Half facepiece or full facepiece air-purifying respirator suitable for organic vapours and particulates

For questions about suitability for a specific application, consult with your respirator manufacturer.

SECTION 12: Ecological information

The information below may not be consistent with the material classification in Section 2 if specific ingredient
classifications are mandated by a competent authority. Additional information leading to material classification in
Section 2 is available upon request. In addition, environmental fate and effects data on ingredients may not be
reflected in this section because an ingredient is present below the threshold for labelling, an ingredient is not
expected to be available for exposure, or the data is considered not relevant to the material as a whole.

SECTION 13: Disposal considerations

13.1. Disposal methods
Dispose of contents/ container in accordance with the local/regional/national/international regulations.

Incinerate in a permitted waste incineration facility. Combustion products will include halogen acid (HCl/HF/HBr). Facility
must be capable of handling halogenated materials. As a disposal alternative, utilize an acceptable permitted waste disposal
facility. Empty drums/barrels/containers used for transporting and handling hazardous chemicals (chemical
substances/mixtures/preparations classified as Hazardous as per applicable regulations) shall be considered, stored, treated
& disposed of as hazardous wastes unless otherwise defined by applicable waste regulations. Consult with the respective
regulating authorities to determine the available treatment and disposal facilities.

National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) hazard ratings are designed for use by emergency response personnel to address
the hazards that are presented by short-term, acute exposure to a material under conditions of fire, spill, or similar
emergencies. Hazard ratings are primarily based on the inherent physical and toxic properties of the material but also include
the toxic properties of combustion or decomposition products that are known to be generated in significant quantities.
