Can release vapors that form explosive mixtures at temperatures at or above the flashpoint. Precaution for fire fighters and special protective equipment Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal precautions Avoid contact with the skin and the eyes. Always wash hands before breaks and at the end of work. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices. Environmental precautions Prevent material from entering drains and/or water ways. Methods for cleaning up Ensure sufficient ventilation. Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceus earth, vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to local / national regulations (see section 13). Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling Safe handling advice Provide good ventilation or extraction. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Wear personal protective equipment. Advice on protection against fire and explosion Product is flammable. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Preparation may charge electrostatically: always use earthing leads when transferring from one container to another. Storage Requirements for storage areas and containers Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat. Keep away from sparks, flame and other sources of ignition. Keep away from direct sunlight. Keep in properly labelled containers.
