SECTION IV - FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA

 

FLASH POINT:  53oF                                                                             METHOD USED:   TCC

 

FLAMMABLE LIMITS IN AIR BY VOLUME -    LOWER:  N/A       UPPER:  N/A

 

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:  Foam, CO2, Dry Chemical, Water Fog

 

SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES:

 SECTION VII – PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE

 

STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED

Eliminate ignition sources, provide good ventilation, dike spill area and add absorbent earth or sawdust to spilled liquid.  Thoroughly wet with water and mix.

 

WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD

Collect absorbent/water/spilled liquid mixture into metal containers and add enough water to cover.  Consult local, state, and federal hazardous waste regulation before disposing into approved hazardous waste landfills.  Obey relevant laws.

 

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING

Use non-sparking utensils when handling this material.  Avoid hot metal surfaces.  Use in cool, well-ventilated areas.  Keep containers closed when not in use.  Keep away from excessive heat and open flames.

 

OTHER PRECAUTIONS

Smoking in areas where this material is used should be strictly prohibited.  Tools used with this material should be made from aluminum, brass, or copper.  Plastic utensils should be used.

 

SECTION VIII – CONTROL MEASURES

 

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION

When spraying this material use a NIOSH approved cartridge respirator or gap mask suitable to keep airborne mists and vapor concentrations below the time, weighted threshold limit values.  When using in poorly ventilated and confined space, use a fresh air supplying respirator or a self-contained breathing apparatus.

 

VENTILATION

General mechanical ventilation or local exhaust should be suitable to keep vapor concentrations below TLV.  Ventilation equipment must be explosion proof.

 

PROTECTIVE GLOVES

Impermeable chemical handling gloves for skin protection.

 

EYE PROTECTION

Use chemical safety glasses, goggles, and face shields for eye protection.

 

OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OR EQUIPMENT

Use impermeable aprons and protective clothing whenever possible to prevent skin contact.  The use of head caps whenever possible is strongly recommended.
