Precautionary statements

precautions for for for firefighters firefighters fire, ISOLATE for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions; also consider initial evacuation for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions. ALWAYS stay away from tanks engulfed in flame. Fight fire from maximum distance or use unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles. In the event of fire, cool tanks with water spray. Use water spray to cool unopened containers. Firefighters must use standard protective equipment including flame retardant coat, helmet with face shield, gloves, rubber boots, and in enclosed spaces, SCBA. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety device or any discoloration of tanks due to fire. For massive fire in cargo area, use unmanned hose holder or monitor nozzles, if possible. If not, withdraw and let fire burn out. Special Special protective protective protective equipment equipment equipment for for Wear full protective clothing, including helmet, self-contained positive pressure or pressure fire-fighters demand breathing apparatus, protective clothing and face mask. Specific Specific methods methods In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Use water spray to cool unopened containers. 6666. . . . Accidental Accidental Accidental Release Release Release Measures Measures Personal Personal precautions Ensure adequate ventilation. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep out of low areas. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Avoid skin contact and inhalation of vapors during disposal of spills. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Environmental Environmental precautions Do not contaminate water. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Methods Methods for for for containment containment ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas. Methods Methods for for for cleaning cleaning cleaning up up up up Large Spills: Dike far ahead of spill for later disposal. Use a non-combustible material like vermiculite, sand or earth to soak up the product and place into a container for later disposal. Use only non-sparking tools. Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Never return spills in original containers for re-use. Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination. Do not flush to sewer. J. T. Baker SOLUSORB® solvent adsorbent is recommended for spills of this product. 7777. . . . Handling Handling Handling and and and Storage

Storage

Handling Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Do not smoke. All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded. Do not get this material in contact with eyes. Do not breathe mist or vapor. Avoid contact with skin. Use only in area provided with appropriate exhaust ventilation. Wear personal protective equipment. Avoid prolonged exposure. Wash thoroughly after handling. DO NOT handle, store or open near an open flame, sources of heat or sources of ignition. Protect material from direct sunlight. Use non-sparking tools and explosion-proof equipment. DO NOT PRESSURIZE, CUT, WELD, BRAZE, SOLDER, DRILL, GRIND, OR EXPOSE SUCH CONTAINERS TO HEAT, STATIC ELECTRICITY, OR OTHER SOURCES OF IGNITION; THEY MAY EXPLODE AND CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH. Store in a cool, dry place. Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. The pressure in sealed containers can increase under the influence of heat. This material can accumulate static charge which may cause spark and become an ignition source. Prevent electrostatic charge build-up by using common bonding and grounding techniques. Keep in an area equipped with sprinklers. Use care in handling/storage. Keep out of the reach of children. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs. 8888. . . .
