### Advice for firefighters

Fire Fighting Procedures: Keep people away. Isolate fire and deny unnecessary entry. Use water

spr ay to cool fire exposed containers and fire affected zone until fire is out and danger of reignition has

passed. Fight fire from protected location or safe distance. Consider the use of unmanned hose

holders or monitor nozzles. Immediately wi thdraw all personnel from the area in case of rising sound

from venting safety device or discoloration of the container. Do not use direct water stream. May

spread fire. Move container from fire area if this is possible without hazard. Burning liquids may be

moved by flushing with water to protect personnel and minimize property damage. Contain fire water

run

- off if possible. Fire water run

- off, if not contained, may cause environmental damage. Review the

"Accidental Rele ase Measures" and the "Ecological Information" sections of this (M)SDS.

Special Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Wear positive

| Triethanolamine ACGIH TWA 5 mg/m3

| N,N

- Diethanolamine ACGIH TWA

Inhalable

fraction and

vapor. 1 mg/m3 SKIN

A "skin" notation following the inhalation exposure guideline refers to the potential for dermal

absorption of the material including mucous membranes and the eyes either by contact with vapors or

by direct skin contact.

It is intended to alert the r eader that inhalation may not be the only route of exposure and that

measures to minimize dermal exposures should be considered.



### Personal Protection

Eye/Face Protection: Use safety glasses (with side shields).

Skin Protection: Use protective clothing chemically resistant to this material. Selection of specific

items such as face shield, boots, apron, or full body suit will depend on the task.

Hand protection: Use gloves chemically resistant to this material. Examples of preferred

glove barrier materials include: Butyl rubber. Natural rubber ("latex"). Neoprene.

Nitrile/butadiene rubber ("nitrile" or "NBR"). Polyethylene. Et hyl vinyl alcohol laminate

("EVAL"). Polyvinyl alcohol ("PVA"). Polyvinyl chloride ("PVC" or "vinyl"). NOTICE: The

selection of a specific glove for a particular application and duration of use in a workplace

should also take into account all relevant w orkplace factors such as, but not limited to: Other

chemicals which may be handled, physical requirements (cut/puncture protection, dexterity,

thermal protection), potential body reactions to glove materials, as well as the

instructions/specifications prov ided by the glove supplier.

Respiratory Protection: Respiratory protection should be worn when there is a potential to exceed

the exposure limit requirements or guidelines. If there are no applicable exposure limit requiremen ts

or guidelines, wear respiratory protection when adverse effects, such as respiratory irritation or

discomfort have been experienced, or where indicated by your risk assessment process. For most

conditions, no respiratory protection should be need ed; however, if material is heated or sprayed, use

an approved air

- purifying respirator. The following should be effective types of air

- purifying

respirators: Organic vapor cartridge with a particulate pre

- filter.

Ingestion: Use good personal hygiene. Do not consume or store food in the work area. Wash hands

before smoking or eating.



### Engineering Controls

Ventilation: Use local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels

below exposure limit requirements or guidelines. If there are no applicable exposure limit

requirements or guidelines, general ventilation should be sufficient for mo st operations. Local exhaust

ventilation may be necessary for some operations.
