Notes to Doctor
5.0 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flammability Summary COMBUSTIBLE
Halon; Dry Chemical; Alcohol foam; Water spray; Use dry sand or earth to smother fire.
Extinguishing Media
Vapors may be ignited by sparks, flames or other sources of ignition if material is above the
Fire and/or Explosion Hazards
flash point giving rise to a fire (Class B). Vapors are heavier than air and may travel to a
source of ignition and flash back.
Do not enter fire area without proper protection including self-contained breathing apparatus
Fire Fighting Methods and Protection
and full protective equipment. Fight fire from a safe distance and a protected location due to
the potential of hazardous vapors and decomposition products. Flammable components of
this material may be lighter than water and burn while floating on the surface.

6.0 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Exposure to the spilled material may be irritated or harmful. Follow personal
Personal Precautions and Equipment
protective equipment recommendations found in Section 8 of this MSDS.
Additional precautions may be necessary based on special circumstances created by
the spill including; the material spilled, the quantity of the spill, the area in which the
spill occurred. Also consider the expertise of employees in the area responding to the
spill. Ventilate the contaminated area.
Prevent the spread of any spill to minimize harm to human health and the environ-
Methods for Clean-up
ment if safe to do so. Wear complete and proper personal protective equipment
following the recommendation of Section 8 at a minimum. Dike with suitable absor-
bent such as sand or vermiculite. Place in properly labeled closed container. Absorb
the liquid and scrub the area with detergent and water.
7.0 HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling Technical Measures and Precautions Harmful or irritating material. Avoid contacting and avoid breathing the material.
Use only in a well-ventilated area. As with all chemicals, good industrial hygiene
practices should be followed when handling this material.
Store in a cool dry place. Isolate from incompatible materials. Do not store in direct
Storage Technical Measures and Conditions
sunlight. Keep away from sources of ignition.
8.0 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls are normally required when

handling or using this product to avoid overexposure.
Respiratory protection may be required to avoid overexposure when handling this
Respiratory Protection
product. General or local exhaust ventilation is the preferred means of protection.
Use a respirator if general room ventilation is not available or sufficient to eliminate
symptoms. A supplied air type respirator may be required.
Wear safety glasses when handling this product. Wear chemical splash goggles if

splashing or high-pressure system is used.
Wear protective gloves. Inspect gloves for chemical break-through and replace at
Skin Protection
regular intervals. Clean protective equipment regularly. Wash hands and other ex-
posed areas with mild soap and water before eating, drinking, and when leaving
work. Use of protective coveralls and long sleeves is recommended. The glove(s)
Gloves
listed below may provide protection against permeantion. Gloves of other chemically
resistant materials may not provide adequate protection.
