5.2 EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Use fire extinguishers with class B extinguishing agents (e.g., dry chemical, carbon dioxide).
5.3 PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Water may not effectively extinguish fire; however, it should be used to keep fire-exposed
containers and surfaces cool and prevent explosive rupture. Wear full protective equipment (Bunker Gear) and a self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCBA).
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Closed containers exposed to heat from fire may build pressure and explode. Extremely
flammable liquid and vapor. Vapors may travel long distances along the ground or floor to an ignition source and flash back.
Note: See STABILITY AND REACTIVITY (SECTION 10) for hazardous combustion and thermal decomposition
information.
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Accidental Release Measures: Refer to other sections of this MSDS for information regarding physical and health hazards,
respiratory protection, ventilation, and personal protective equipment. Call 3M-HELPS line (1-800-364-3577) for more information
on handling and managing the spill. Evacuate unprotected and untrained personnel from hazard area. The spill should be cleaned up
by qualified personnel. Remove all ignition sources such as flames, smoking materials, and electrical spark sources. Use only non-
sparking tools. Ventilate the area with fresh air. For large spill, or spills in confined spaces, provide mechanical ventilation to
disperse or exhaust vapors, in accordance with good industrial hygiene practice. Warning! A motor could be an ignition source and
could cause flammable gases or vapors in the spill area to burn or explode. Contain spill. For larger spills, cover drains and build
dikes to prevent entry into sewer systems or bodies of water. Cover spill area with a fire-extinguishing foam designed for use on
solvents, such as alcohols and acetone, that can dissolve in water. An AR - AFFF type foam is recommended. 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 toxic, corrosivity or
flammability hazard. Collect as much of the spilled material as possible using non-sparking tools. Clean up residue with detergent
and water. Collect the resulting residue containing solution. Place in a metal container approved for transportation by appropriate
authorities. Seal the container. Dispose of collected material as soon as possible.
In the event of a release of this material, the user should determine if the release qualifies as reportable according to
local, state, and federal regulations.
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
7.1 HANDLING
Vapors may ignite explosively. May cause flash fire. Prevent build-up of vapors - open all windows and doors. Maintain vapor
concentrations below recommended exposure limits. Use only with cross-ventilation. Without adequate ventilation, vapors may settle
in low-lying areas. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Do not smoke or ignite matches, lighters, etc. Contents may be
under pressure, open carefully. Ground containers securely when transferring contents. Wear low static or properly grounded shoes.
Avoid static discharge. Avoid breathing of vapors, mists or spray. Avoid eye contact with vapors, mists, or spray. Keep out of the
reach of children. For industrial or professional use only. Avoid contact with oxidizing agents.
7.2 STORAGE
Store away from acids. Store away from heat. Store out of direct sunlight. Keep container in well-ventilated area. Keep container
tightly closed. Store away from oxidizing agents.
SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Page 3 of 7
MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Rite-Lok(TM) CA Debonder/Cleaner AC68-2 & AC68-G 07/14/2008
8.1 ENGINEERING CONTROLS
Provide local exhaust ventilation at transfer points. Provide appropriate local exhaust ventilation on open containers. Use general
dilution ventilation and/or local exhaust ventilation to control airborne exposures to below Occupational Exposure Limits and/or
control mist, vapor, or spray. If ventilation is not adequate, use respiratory protection equipment.
8.2 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)
8.2.1 Eye/Face Protection
Avoid eye contact with vapors, mists, or spray.
The following eye protection(s) are recommended: Indirect Vented Goggles.
8.2.2 Skin Protection
Avoid skin contact.
Select and use gloves and/or protective clothing to prevent skin contact based on the results of an exposure assessment. Consult with
your glove and/or protective clothing manufacturer for selection of appropriate compatible materials.
Gloves made from the following material(s) are recommended: Butyl Rubber, Polyethylene/Ethylene Vinyl Alcohol.
8.2.3 Respiratory Protection
Avoid breathing of vapors, mists or spray.
Select one of the following NIOSH approved respirators based on airborne concentration of contaminants and in accordance with
OSHA regulations: Half facepiece or fullface air-purifying respirator with organic vapor cartridges. Consult the current 3M
Respiratory Selection Guide for additional information or call 1-800-243-4630 for 3M technical assistance.
8.2.4 Prevention of Swallowing
Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Wash exposed areas thoroughly with soap and water.
