Special Information: Firefighters should wear proper protective equipment and self- <br />contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in positive pressure mode. <br />Move exposed containers from fire area if it can be done without risk. Cool any exposed <br />containers with water. <br />Evacuation: If tank, rail car or tank truck involved in a fire, ISOLATE and consider <br />evacuation of one-half (1 /2) mile radius. <br />NOTE: Also see "Section 10 -Stability and Reactivity" <br />SECTION 6 -ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES <br />Spills, Leaks, or Releases: <br />^ Restrict access to area until completion of clean up. Ensure trained personnel conduct <br />clean up. Wear adequate personal protective equipment. Do not touch spilled material. <br />^ Stop leak if possible without personal risk. <br />^ Small spills: Absorb spill with sand or non-combustible dry material and collect in <br />appropriate container for disposal. Flush area with water. <br />^ Large spills: Prevent entry into sewers and confined areas. Dike if possible. Keep <br />unnecessary people away, isolate hazard area and deny entry. Absorb spill with sand <br />or non-combustible dry material and collect in appropriate container for disposal. <br />Flush area with water. <br />SECTION 7 -HANDLING AND. STORAGE <br />Handling: Observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product. Wear rubber <br />gloves, safety glasses, and protective work clothing. <br />Storage Requirements: Store in corrosion-resistant tanks or the supplier container. <br />Keep containers tightly closed.

Conditions of use, <br />adequacy of engineering or other control measures, and actual exposures will <br />dictate the need for specific protective devices at your workplace. <br />Engineering Controls: A ventilation system of local and/or general exhaust is <br />recommended. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the <br />emissions of the contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general <br />work area. Ensure that eyewash station and safety showers are proximal to the <br />workstation location. <br />PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT <br />44 <br />
