SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Use water, dry chemical, CO2, or foam, as appropriate for surrounding fire. Use water spray to cool containers. Firefighters should use approved self-contained breathing apparatus and full turn-out (Bunker) gear when fighting fires involving chemicals, to protect against possible toxic fumes or vapors. Cool and use caution when approaching fire-exposed containers. Organic material suspended in water. Organic material may burn if all of the water has boiled off. SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURE: Use personal protection recommended in Section 8. Ventilate area thoroughly. Stay upwind. Isolate area from unprotected personnel. Dike to prevent spill from spreading. Collect with compatible absorbent material and place in metal container with tight fitting cover. Floor may be slippery - use care and clean thoroughly. Keep out of sewer, septic system, ground water, and open waters. Notify federal, state and local authorities, as applicable. SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE STORAGE TEMPERATURE: Store above 40°F and below 100°F. HANDLING AND STORAGE PRECAUTIONS: Do not freeze. Use personal protection recommended in Section 8. Open containers slowly in case of pressure accumulation. Protect from direct sunlight. Store in dry, cool, ventilated area in tightly closed containers out of the reach of children. Do not store on side. Avoid creasing or impacting container sidewalls. Empty containers may be hazardous. Do not eat, drink, or smoke in chemical use or storage areas. W ash hands after handling and before eating, drinking, or smoking. Do not rub eyes with soiled hands. See Section 10 for metals or other materials to avoid. SECTION 8 - PERSONAL PROTECTION/EXPOSURE CONTROLS ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Provide sufficient general and local exhaust ventilation to maintain safe exposure levels. Take measures to minimize exposure. Provide a source of clean water for flushing eyes and skin. EYE PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS: Use ANSI-approved eye protection (e.g. safety glasses, goggles), as required by work conditions. Use ANSI-approved chemical splash goggles and face shield if splashing may occur. SKIN PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS: Chemical-resistant gloves and clothing, as needed, to prevent skin contact. Wash hands before eating, drinking, or smoking. RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: To protect against inhalation, a NIOSH-approved air-purifying respirator with organic vapor cartridges and dust/mist pre-filters may be permissible. Use a dust/mist filter or pre-filter if spraying. Use a positive pressure air-supplied respirator for unknown or uncontrolled situations, or when air-purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.
