Polyethylene (translucent, colorless pellets)
A hazard warning is not required for polyethylene under OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR
1910 - 1200).
Fire Fighting Procedures: Use dry chemical, water spray/water fog, foam or carbon dioxide or sand/earth. If possible,
apply water spray from fogging nozzle and avoid high velocity water streams. Firefighters should wear self-contained
breathing apparatus in the positive pressure mode with a full face piece when exposure to smoke and fumes is
possible.
Hazardous polymerization will not occur.
Decomposition products are water and carbon dioxide.
