Section 4 - First-Aid Measures

Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures

Extinguishing Media: Carbon dioxide, dry chemical, foam
Fire Fighting Procedures: Fight like a fuel oil fire. Cool fire exposed containers with water spray. Fire fighter should wear OSHA/NIOSH approved self-contained breathing apparatus. For large quantities, fight fir from a distance.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Closed containers exposed to high temperatures, such as fire conditions may rupture.

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures

Steps to be Taken if Material is Released or Spilled: Wash and clean up small spills with water and detergent. Pick up large spills with inert absorbent and place in container for disposal.
Personal Precautions:
Environmental Precautions:

Section 7 - Handling and Storage

General Handling:
Other Precautions:
Storage: Do not store the product above 100F (38C). Keep product away from heat, open flame, and other sources of ignition. Avoid contact with strong acids, alkalies and oxidizers. Do not freeze- separation may occur upon thawing.

Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection

Personal Protection
Eye/Face Protection: Safety glasses or goggles with splash guards or rubber gloves.
Skin Protection: To prevent prolonged exposure, use rubber gloves.
Respiratory Protection: Does not require a respirator with general room ventilation. If room ventilation is lacking, use NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator to remove vapors. Use an air supplied respirator if necessary.
Hygenic Measures: Wash hands before smoking, eating or using washroom.
Other Protection Measures: Wear protective clothing as required to prevent skin contact.
Engineering Controls: Use adequate ventilation in volume and pattern to keep TLV/PEL below recommended levels. General mechanical ventilation is acceptable.
