Hazardous Decomposition or By-Products Substance Condition Carbon monoxide During combustion. Carbon dioxide. During combustion. Irritant vapours or gases. During combustion. 5.3. Advice for fire-fighters No special protective actions for fire-fighters are anticipated. SECTION 6: Accidental release measures 6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Ventilate the area with fresh air. For large spill, or spills in confined spaces, provide mechanical ventilation to disperse or exhaust vapours, in accordance with good industrial hygiene practice. Use personal protective equipment based on the results of an exposure assessment. Refer to Section 8 for PPE recommendations. If anticipated exposure resulting from an accidental release exceeds the protective capabilities of the PPE listed in Section 8, or are unknown, select PPE that offers an appropriate level of protection. Consider the physical and chemical hazards of the material when doing so. Examples of PPE ensembles for emergency response could include wearing bunker gear for a release of flammable material; wearing chemical protective clothing if the spilled material is a corrosive, a sensitizer, a significant dermal irritant, or can be absorbed through the skin; or donning a positive pressure supplied-air respirator for chemicals with inhalation hazards. For information regarding physical and health hazards, refer to sections 2 and 11 of the SDS. 6.2. Environmental precautions Avoid release to the environment. 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. Place in a closed 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. 6.4. Reference to other sections Refer to Section 8 and Section 13 for more information SECTION 7: Handling and storage 7.1. Precautions for safe handling Avoid release to the environment. 7.2. Conditions for safe storage including any incompatibilities No special storage requirements. 7.3. Specific end use(s) See information in Section 7.1 and 7.2 for handling and storage recommendations. See Section 8 for exposure controls and personal protection recommendations. SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection 8.1 Control parameters Occupational exposure limits
