Section 5. Fire fighting measures
Flammable.
Flammability of the product :
Lowest known value: 236.9癈 (458.4癋) (Dimethoxymethane).
Auto-ignition Temperature :
Closed cup: Between -18癈 (0癋) and 23癈 (73癋). (Pensky-Martens.)
Flash Points :
Greatest known range: Lower: 4.7% Upper: 21% (propylene carbonate)
Flammable limits :
Decomposition products may include the following materials: carbon oxides (CO, CO2).
Products of combustion :
Flammable in presence of open flames and sparks
Fire hazards in presence of :
various substances
: Not available.
Explosion hazards in
presence of various
substances
: In case of fire, use water spray (fog), foam, dry chemicals, or CO2.
Fire fighting media and
instructions Highly flammable liquid and vapor. Vapor may cause flash fire. Vapors may accumulate in low or confined
areas, travel considerable distance to source of ignition and flash back. Runoff to sewer may create fire or
explosion hazard.
: Fire fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA)
Special protective equipment
with a full facepiece operated in positive pressure mode.
for fire-fighters
: Combustible when exposed to heat or flame.

hazards
Section 6. Accidental release measures
: Immediately contact emergency personnel. Eliminate all ignition sources. Keep unnecessary personnel
Personal precautions
away. Use suitable protective equipment (Section 8). Do not touch or walk through spilled material.
: Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains and sewers.
Environmental precautions
: If emergency personnel are unavailable, contain spilled material. For small spills add absorbent (soil
Methods for cleaning up
may be used in the absence of other suitable materials) and use a non-sparking or explosion proof
means to transfer material to a sealed, appropriate container for disposal. For large spills dike spilled
material or otherwise contain material to ensure runoff does not reach a waterway. Place spilled material
in an appropriate container for disposal.
Section 7. Handling and storage
: Keep container closed. Use only with adequate ventilation. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. To
Handling
avoid fire or explosion, dissipate static electricity during transfer by grounding and bonding containers and
equipment before transferring material. Use explosion-proof electrical (ventilating, lighting and material
handling) equipment.
: Store in a segregated and approved area. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Keep container
Storage
tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Avoid all possible sources of ignition (spark or flame).

Section 8. Exposure Controls, Personal Protection
: Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors
Engineering controls
below their respective occupational exposure limits. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers
are proximal to the work-station location.
Personal protection
Eyes : Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk assessment indicates
this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists or dusts.
Skin : Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being performed and the
risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling this product.
Respiratory : Use a properly fitted, air-purifying or air-fed respirator complying with an approved standard if a risk
assessment indicates this is necessary.Respirator selection must be based on known or anticipated
exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe working limits of the selected respirator.
Hands : Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves or gauntlets complying with an approved standard should be worn at
all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary.
Other protection : Not available.
:
Personal protective
equipment (Pictograms)
: Splash goggles. Full suit. Vapor respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self-contained breathing apparatus
Personal protection in case
should be used to avoid inhalation of the product. Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient;
of a large spill
consult a specialist BEFORE handling this product.
