SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES This product does not pose an unusual fire fighting problem. It will burn if involved in a fire. Oxides of sulfur, carbon monoxide/dioxide, calcium and other organic/inorganic compounds may be formed during combustion. Use foam, dry chemicals, CO2, sand/earth to extinguish fire. Water should only be used to cool the fire exposed container as the product may float and reignite on the surface of the water and possibly cause the fire to spread. Do not enter confined fire space without full bunker gear (helmet with face shield, bunker coats, gloves and rubber boots), including a positive-pressure NIOSH approved self-contained breathing apparatus. SECTION 6: MEASURES FOR ACCIDENTAL RELEASES Put on protective clothing before starting the clean up. Contain spill and stop the leak at the source if safe to do so and notify the appropriate authorities of the spill. Material may burn although not readily ignitable. Use cautious judgment when cleaning up large spills. Soak up small spills with a non-combustible absorbent. Large spills can be removed by a vacuum truck or pump to storage vessels. Flush area with large amounts of water to in-house treatment system to remove trace residues. Do not directly flush to the sewer or surface waters. Dispose of the material in accordance with federal, state and local area regulations. SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling: Use good engineering practices to establish good ventilation. For normal use, wear rubber gloves, coveralls, boots and gloves. If a mist of this material is present or the ventilation is poor then use vapor cartridge type respirator and a mechanical exhaust.
