dioxide, dry chemical or foam.

Unsuitable Extinguishing Methods

None known

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Under fire conditions some components of this product may decompose. The smoke may contain unidentified toxic
and/or irritating compounds. Combustion products may include and are not limited to: Carbon dioxide. Carbonmonoxide.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: This material will not burn until the water has evaporated. Residue canburn.
Advice for firefighters
Fire Fighting Procedures: Keep people away. Isolate fire and deny unnecessary entry. Contain fire water run-off if
possible.
Special protective equipment for firefighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit. If
protective equipment is not available or not used, fight fire from a protected location or safe distance.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Use personal protective equipment. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Material can create slippery
conditions.
Environmental precautions
CAUTION: Keep spills and cleaning runoff out of municipal sewers and open bodies of water.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Contain spills immediately with inert materials (e.g., sand, earth). Transfer liquids and solid diking material toseparate suitable containers for recovery or disposal.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling
Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep container tightly closed. Do notbreathe vapors, mist or gas.

Hand Protection

Chemical protective gloves is not needed when handling this material.
Consistent with general hygienic practice for any material, skin contact
should be minimized.
In case of using gloves, use gloves chemically resistant to this material.
Examples of preferred glove barrier materials include: Neoprene. Nitrile/butadiene rubber ("nitrile" or "NBR"). Polyvinyl chloride ("PVC" or "vinyl").
Avoid gloves made of: Polyvinyl alcohol ("PVA").

Respiratory Protection

Respiratory protection should be worn as there is a risk of exposure
above given or recommended Occupational Exposure Limits. If such limit
values ​​are not present, respiratory protection will cause effects such as
respiratory irritation or discomfort, or when risk assessment indicates that
this is required. Under most conditions, no respiratory protection should
be required; If discomfort is experienced, use an approved respiratory
protective device.

Hygiene measures

Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.
