Note to Physicians:Administration of 100%oxygen and supportive care is the preferred treatment for poisoning by
<br /> hydrogen sulfide gas. For additional information on H2S,see Chevron MSDS No. 301.
<br /> SECTION 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
<br /> EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:Use water fog,foam,dry chemical or carbon dioxide(CO2)to extinguish Haines.
<br /> PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS:
<br /> Fire Fighting Instructions: This material will burn although it is not easily ignited. See Section 7 for proper
<br /> handling and storage. For fres involving this material,do not enter any enclosed or confined fire space without
<br /> proper protective equipment,including self-contained breathing apparatus.
<br /> Combustion Products: Highly dependent oil combustion conditions. A complex mixture of airborne solids,
<br /> liquids, and gases including carbon monoxide,carbon dioxide,and unidentified organic compounds will be evolved
<br /> when this material undergoes combustion. Combustion may form oxides of: Zinc,Phosphorus, Sulfur,Nitrogen.
<br /> SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
<br /> Protective Measures: Eliminate all sources of ignition in vicinity of spilled material.
<br /> Spill Management: Stop the source of the release if you can do it without risk. Contain release to prevent
<br /> further contamination of soil,surface water or groundwater. Cleanup spill as soon as possible,observing
<br /> precautions in Exposure Controls/Personal Protection. Use appropriate techniques such as applying non-
<br /> combustible absorbent materials or pumping, Where feasible and appropriate,remove contaminated soil. Place
<br /> contaminated materials in disposable containers and dispose of in a manner consistent with applicable regulations,
<br /> Reporting: Report spills to local authorities.and/or the U.S.Coast Guard's National Response Center at(800)424-
<br /> $802 as appropriate or required.
<br /> SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
<br /> General Handling Information:Avoid contaminating soil or releasing this material into sewage and drainage
<br /> systems and bodies of water.
<br /> Precautionary Measures: Do not breathe gas. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep out of the reach of
<br /> children.
<br /> Unusual Handling Hazards:Toxic quantities of hydrogen sulfide(H2S)may be present in storage tanks and bulk
<br /> transport vessels which contain or have contained this material. Persons opening or entering these compartments
<br /> should first determine if H2S is present. See Exposure Controls/Personal Protection-Section 8. Do not attempt
<br /> rescue of a person over exposed to H2S without wearing approved supplied-air or self-contained breathing
<br /> equipment. if there is a potential for exceeding one-half the occupational exposure standard,monitoring of
<br /> hydrogen sulfide levels is required. Since the sense of smell cannot be relied upon to detect the presence of H2S,
<br /> the concentration should be measured by the use of fixed or portable devices.
<br /> Static Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when handling this material.
<br /> To snininiize this hazard, bonding and grounding may be necessary but may not,by themselves,be sufficient.
<br /> Review all operations which have the potential of generating and accumulating an electrostatic charge and/or a
<br /> flammable atmosphere(including tank and container fitting,splash filling,tank cleaning,sampling,gauging,switch
<br /> loading,filtering,mixing,agitation,and vacuum truck operations)and use appropriate mitigating procedures.
<br /> Container Warnings: Container is not designed to contain pressure-Do not use pressure to empty container or it
<br /> tnay rupture with explosive force. Empty containers retain product residue(solid, liquid,and/or vapor)and can be
<br /> dangerous, Do not pressurize, cut,weld,braze,solder,drill,grind,or expose such containers to heat,flame,sparks,
<br /> static electricity,or other sources of ignition. They may explode and cause injury or death. Empty containers
<br /> should be completely drained, properly closed,and prornptly returned.to a drum reconditioner or disposed of
<br /> properly.
