products
Protection of fire-fighters : Fire fighters should wear self-contained positive pressure breathing apparatus
(SCBA) and full turnout gear.

6. Accidental release measures


Personal Precautions : Splash goggles. Full suit. Vapour respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self-contained
breathing apparatus should be used to avoid inhalation of the product.
Environmental precautions and : Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Stop leak if
cleanup methods without risk. Absorb with dry earth, sand or other noncombustible materia
Prevent entry into sewers, basements or confined areas; dike if needed.
Note: See section 8 for personal protective equipment and section 13 for waste disposal.

7. Handling and storage


Handling : Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Do not breathe
gas/fumes/vapour/spray. If ingested, seek medical advice immediately and
show the container or the label. Keep away from incompatibles such as
oxidizing agents, acids, alkalis.
Storage : Store in a segregated and approved area. Keep container in a cool,
well-ventilated area. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready f
use. Avoid all possible sources of ignition (spark or flame).
Packaging materials
Recommended use : Use original container.
