5.3 PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Wear full protective equipment (Bunker Gear) and a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Not applicable.
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. Ventilate the area with fresh air. Contain spill. For larger spills, cover drains and build dikes to prevent entry
into sewer systems or bodies of water. Avoid contact with incompatible materials listed in the Reactivity Data Section. For large
spills, if necessary, get assistance from professional spill clean up team. For small spills, carefully cover the spill with soda ash
(sodium carbonate) or sodium bicarbonate. Work from around the perimeter inward. Avoid splashing. Add enough water to ease
mixing and stir. Continue stirring and adding water and neutralizing agent until the reaction stops. Let cool before collecting. Or use a
commercially available 'Acid spill' clean-up kit. Follow the kit directions exactly, as specified. 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. Clean up residue with detergent and water. Clean up residue with a dilute solution
(approximately 1 to 5%) of soda ash (sodium carbonate) or baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) in water. Collect the resulting residue
containing solution. Place in a metal container approved for use in transportation by appropriate authorities. The container must be
lined with polyethylene plastic or contain a plastic drum liner made of polyethylene. Cover, but do not seal for 48 hours. 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.

National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) hazard ratings are designed for use by emergency response personnel to address the hazards that are
presented by short-term, acute exposure to a material under conditions of fire, spill, or similar emergencies. Hazard ratings are primarily based on the
inherent physical and toxic properties of the material but also include the toxic properties of combustion or decomposition products that are known to
be generated in significant quantities.
HMIS Hazard Classification
Health: 3 Flammability: 0 Reactivity: 0 Protection: X - See PPE section.
Hazardous Material Identification System (HMIS? hazard ratings are designed to inform employees of chemical hazards in the workplace. These
