Fire-fighting measuresWater fog. Foam. Dry chemical powder. Carbon dioxide (CO2).Suitable extinguishing mediaDo not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the extinguishingmediaDuring fire, gases hazardous to health may be hazards arising fromthe chemicalSelf-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of protective equipmentand precautions for firefightersMove containers from fire area if you can do so without fightingequipment/instructionsUse standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved methodsNo unusual fire or explosion hazards fire hazards6.

4 Accidental release measuresKeep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Wearappropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Do not touch damaged containersor spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ensure adequate authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be precautions,protective equipment andemergency proceduresPrevent product from entering Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this ispossible. Cover with plastic SHEET to prevent spreading. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earthand place into containers. Following product recovery, flush area with Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material ( cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly toremove residual return spills to original containers for and materials forcontainment and cleaning upAvoid release to the environment. Inform appropriate managerial or supervisory personnel of allenvironmental releases.

Exposure controls/personal protectionThis mixture has no ingredients that have PEL, TLV, or other recommended exposure exposure limitsNo biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s).Biological limit valuesGood general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation ratesshould be matched to conditions.

6 If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation,or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. Ifexposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Eyewash facilities and emergency shower must be available when handling this engineeringcontrolsIndividual protection measures, such as personal protective equipmentWear SAFETY glasses with side shields (or goggles) and a face protectionSkin protectionWear appropriate chemical resistant gloves. Suitable gloves can be recommended by the protectionWear appropriate chemical resistant case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory protectionWear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when hazardsAlways observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the materialand before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protectiveequipment to remove hygieneconsiderations9.
