Closed containers exposed to heat from fire may build pressure and explode. Exposure to extreme heat can give rise to
thermal decomposition.
5.3. Special protective actions for fire-fighters
When fire fighting conditions are severe and total thermal decomposition of the product is possible, wear full protective
clothing, including helmet, self-contained, positive pressure or pressure demand breathing apparatus, bunker coat and pants,
bands around arms, waist and legs, face mask, and protective covering for exposed areas of the head.
SECTION 6: Accidental release measures
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Evacuate area. Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. -No smoking. Ventilate the area with fresh air.
Refer to other sections of this SDS for information regarding physical and health hazards, respiratory protection, ventilation,
and personal protective equipment.
6.2. Environmental precautions
Avoid release to the environment. For larger spills, cover drains and build dikes to prevent entry into sewer systems or
bodies of water.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
If possible, seal leaking container. Place leaking containers in a well-ventilated area, preferably an operating exhaust hood, or
if necessary outdoors on an impermeable surface until appropriate packaging for the leaking container or its contents is
available. Contain spill. Working from around the edges of the spill inward, cover with bentonite, vermiculite, or
commercially available inorganic absorbent material. Mix in sufficient absorbent until it appears dry. Remember, adding an
absorbent material does not remove a physical, health, or environmental hazard. Collect as much of the spilled material as
possible. Place in a closed container approved for transportation by appropriate authorities. Clean up residue with an
appropriate solvent selected by a qualified and authorized person. Ventilate the area with fresh air. Read and follow safety
precautions on the solvent label and SDS. Seal the container. Dispose of collected material as soon as possible.

SECTION 16: Other information
NFPA Hazard Classification
Health: 3 Flammability: 1 Instability: 0 Special Hazards: None
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) hazard ratings are designed for use by emergency response personnel to address
the hazards that are presented by short-term, acute exposure to a material under conditions of fire, spill, or similar
emergencies. Hazard ratings are primarily based on the inherent physical and toxic properties of the material but also include
the toxic properties of combustion or decomposition products that are known to be generated in significant quantities.
HMIS Hazard Classification
Health: 2 Flammability: 1 Physical Hazard: 0 Personal Protection: X -See PPE section.
Hazardous Material Identification System (HMIS® III) hazard ratings are designed to inform employees of chemical hazards
in the workplace. These ratings are based on the inherent properties of the material under expected conditions of normal use
and are not intended for use in emergency situations. HMIS® III ratings are to be used with a fully implemented HMIS® III
program. HMIS® is a registered mark of the American Coatings Association (ACA).
