Flammable liquid
OSHA Flammability Classification
Other Flammable Properties
Vapors are heavier than air and can form an explosive mixture with air. Vapors can travel to a source of
ignition and flash back. Never use welding or cutting torches on or near containers or drums (even when
empty). Product residue or vapor in drums or container can ignite explosively. Cool warm or bulging
containers to ambient temperature with water from a safe distance. Then wear eye and face protection
and protective clothing while carefully opening bung to vent pressure.
Extinguishing Media
Use the following extinguishing media when fighting fires involving this material:
alcohol-resistant foam - dry chemical - carbon dioxide
Fire Fighting Procedures
Evacuate enclosed and surrounding areas. Move containers from fire area if you can do it without risk. As
in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or
equivalent) and full protective gear. Use water spray to cool containers exposed to fire and disperse
vapors. Keep spills away from sources of ignition. Dike fire-control water for later disposal.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Procedures
Remove sources of ignition and ventilate area. All equipment used when handling the product must be
grounded. Absorb spill with inert material and place in a chemical waste container. Obey relevant local,
state, provincial and federal laws and regulations. Do not contaminate any lakes, streams, ponds,
groundwater or soil. See section 8, Exposure Controls/Personal Protection.
7. Handling and Storage
Handling
Product is supplied in a stabilized form. Stir well before decanting from drum. Open container carefully
as it may be pressurized. Use portable ventilation if necessary at job site. Ground and bond containers
when transferring material. Keep container tightly closed. Use explosion-proof equipment. Do not eat,
drink, smoke or chew tobacco around material.
Storage
Keep in the original container at a temperature not exceeding 35 癈 (95 癋). Do not store in direct
sunlight. Keep away from heat. Keep away from sparks, flames and other sources of ignition. Keep
container closed when not in use. Ensure the area is well ventilated. Limit storage of flammable liquids
to approved areas equipped with overhead sprinklers. Protect material from contamination (refer to
Section 10 for incompatibilities). Fill the container by approximately 80 % only as oxygen (air) is
required for stabilization. With large storage containers make sure the oxygen (air) supply is sufficient to
ensure stability. Residual vapors might explode on ignition; do not apply heat, cut, drill, grind or weld on
or near this container.

Engineering Controls (Ventilation)
Provide general and/or local exhaust ventilation to maintain airborne levels below the exposure
limits in Section 8. Refer to the current edition of 'Industrial Ventilation: A Manual of
Recommended Practice' published by the American Conference of Government Industrial
Hygienists for information on the design, installation, use, and maintenance of exhaust systems.
Respiratory Protection
A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 or applicable
federal/provincial requirements must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant
respirator use. NIOSH's "Respirator Decision Logic" may be useful in determining the suitability
of various types of respirators.
Eye Protection
Use chemical splash goggles and face shield (ANSI Z87.1) or approved equivalent.
Skin Protection
on handling of larger quantities: face mask, chemical-resistant boots and apron
Hand Protection
Chemical-resistant gloves should be worn whenever this material is handled.
Gloves should be replaced regularly, especially after extended contact with the product.
For each work-place a suitable glove type has to be selected.
Other Protective Equipment
A safety shower and eye wash fountain should be readily available. To identify additional
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) requirements, it is recommended that a hazard assessment
in accordance with the OSHA PPE Standard (29CFR1910.132) be conducted before using this
product.
