<br />Specific hazards arising from the chemical
<br />Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards; Flammable This material can be Ignited by heat, sparks, flames, or other sources of
<br />Ignition (e.g., static electricity, pilot lights, mechaniaaVelectrical equipment, and -electronic devices such as cell phones,
<br />computers, calculators, and pagers which have not been certified as Intrinsically safe) Vapors may travel con"rable
<br />distances to a source of Ignition where they can Ignite, flash backs or explode. May create vapor/air explosion hazard indoors,
<br />In confined spaces, outdoors, or in sewers. This product will float and can be reignited on surface water. Vapors are heavier
<br />than air and can accumulate in low areas. If container is not properly cooled, It can rupture In the heat of a fire.
<br />Hazardous Combustion Products: Combustion may yield smoke, carbon monoxide, and other products of Incomplete
<br />combustion. Oxides of nitrogen and sulfur may also be formed.
<br />Special protective actions for fireMtighters: For fires beyond the Initial stage, emergency responders In the immediate hazard
<br />area should wear protective clothing. When the potential chemical hazard Is unknown, In enclosed or confined spaces, a self
<br />contained breathing apparatus should be worn. In addition, wear other appropriate protective equipment as conditions warrant
<br />(see Sectlon 8). Isolate the hazard area and deny entto unnecessary and unprotected personnel. Stop spill/relme If It can be
<br />done safely, Move undamaged containers from Imrne ate hazard area If It can be done safely. Water spray may be useful In
<br />minimizing or dispersing vapors and to protect personnel. Cool equipment exposed to fire with water, N it can be done safely. Avoid
<br />spreading burning liquid with water used for cooling purposes.
<br />See Section 9 for Flammable Properties including Flash Point and Flammable (Explosive) Limits

<br />Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Flammable Spillages of liquid product will create a
<br />fire hazard and may form an explosive atmosphere. Keep all sources of ignition and hot metal surfaces away from spiltlrelease if
<br />safe to do so, The use of explosion -proof electrical equipment Is recommended. Stay upwind and away from sptUhelease. Avoid
<br />direct Contact with material. For large spillages, notify persons down wind of the spill/release, isolate lr mediate hazard area and
<br />keep unauthorized personnel out. Wear appropriate protective equipmen4 including respiratory protection, as conditions warrant
<br />(see Section 8), See Sections 2 and 7 for additional Information on hazards and precautionary measures.
<br />Environmental Precautions: Stop and contain spilVrelease fi It can be done safely. Prevent spliced material from entering sewers,
<br />storm drains, other unauthorized drainage systems, and natural waterways. Use foam on spills to minimize vapors Use water
<br />sparingly to minimize environmental contamination and reduce disposal requirements, if spill occurs on water notify appropriate
<br />authorities and advise shipping of any hazard. Spills Into or upon navigable waters, the contiguous zone, or adjolnhg shorelines
<br />that cause a sheen or discoloration on the surface of the water, may require notification of the National Response Center (phone
<br />number 800-424-8802).
<br />Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Notlfy relevant authorities In accordance with all applicable
<br />regulations. Immediate cleanup of any spill Is recommended. Dike far ahead of spill for later recovery or disposal. Absorb spill with
<br />Inert material such as sand or vermiculite, and place In suitable container for disposal. if spilled on water remove with appropriate
<br />methods (e.g. skimming, booms or absorbents), In case of soil contamination, remove contaminated soil for remedlation or
<br />disposal, in accordance with local regulations.
<br />Recommended measures are based on the most likely spillage scenarios for this materials however local conditions and
<br />regulations may Influence or limit the choice of appropriate actions to be taken.

<br />Precautions for safe handling: Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read
<br />and understood. Keep away from heat; hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other Ignition sources. No smoking. Take
<br />precautionary measures against static discharge. Use only non -sparking tools. Do not breathe vapor or mist. Use only outdoors or
<br />In a well -ventilated area Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. Wash thoroughly aper handling.
<br />Use good personal hygiene practices and wear appropriate personal protective equipment (see section 8). Flammable May
<br />vaporize easily at ambient temperatures. The vapor Is heavier than air and may create an explosive mixture of vapor and air.
<br />Beware of accumulation In confined spaces and low lying areas. Open container slowly to relieve any pressure. The use of
<br />explosion -proof electrical equipment Is recommended and may be required (see appropriate fire codes). Refer to NFPA-70 and/or
<br />API RP 2003 for speclfic bonding/grounding requirements. Do not enter confined spaces such as tanks or pits without following
<br />proper entry procedures such as ASTM D-4276 and 29CFR 11910.140. Do not wear contaminated clothing or shoes. Keep
<br />contaminated clothing away from sources of Ignition such as sparks or open flames.
<br />High pressure Injection of hydrocarbon fuels, hydraulic oils or greases under the skin may have serious consequences even though
<br />no symptoms or Injury may be apparent. This can happen accidentally when using high pressure equipment such as high pressure
