Fire-fighting measures Suitable extinguishing media Unsuitable extinguishing media Specific hazards arising from the chemical Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters General fire hazards 6. Accidental release measures Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up Environmental precautions 7. Handling and storage Precautions for safe handling Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Treat symptomatically. 8. Exposure controls/personal protection Occupational exposure limits Biological limit values Appropriate engineering controls Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves. Water fog. Foam. Dry chemical powder. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire. Sorbents will take on the characteristics/properties of whatever liquid is absorbed. Therefore, all measures must be taken as if you were handling the liquid itself. Sorbents do not make the liquid less hazardous. Always refer to the SDS for the chemical absorbed before proceeding. During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed. Polypropylene, when heated, becomes very sticky and will burn. Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire. unusual fire or explosion hazards noted. Keep unnecessary personnel away. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS. The product is immiscible with water and will spread on the water surface. Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Following product recovery, flush area with water. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS. Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. Use care in handling/storage. Sorbents will take on the characteristics/properties of whatever liquid is absorbed. Therefore, all measures must be taken as if you were handling the liquid itself. Sorbents do not make the liquid less hazardous. Always refer to the SDS for the chemical absorbed before proceeding. For product usage instructions, please see the product label. Store in a dry place. Do not handle or store near an open flame, heat or other sources of ignition. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). This mixture has no ingredients that have PEL, TLV, or other recommended exposure limit. biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s). Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles). Eye/face protection Skin protection Hand protection Other Respiratory protection Thermal hazards General hygiene considerations t normally needed. Wear suitable protective clothing. If engineering controls are not feasible or if exposure exceeds the applicable exposure limits, use a NIOSH-approved cartridge respirator with an organic vapor cartridge. Use a self-contained breathing apparatus in confined spaces and for emergencies. Air monitoring is needed to determine actual employee exposure levels. Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants. 2 / 6
