Ekon Mobil <br />Product Name: GENERAL HOMOPOLYMER AND COPOLYMER POLYPROPYLENE <br />Revision Date: 20 Sep 2019 <br />Page 5 of 13 <br />Fire Fighting Instructions: Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved <br />materials. Assure an extended cooling down period to prevent re-ignition. Evacuate area. Prevent runoff <br />from fire control or dilution from entering streams, sewers, or drinking water supply. Firefighters should use <br />standard protective equipment and in enclosed spaces, self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Use <br />water spray to cool fire exposed surfaces and to protect personnel. <br />Unusual Fire Hazards: Explosion: Avoid generating dust; fine dust dispersed in air in sufficient concentration <br />and in the presence of an ignition source is a potential dust explosion hazard. <br />Hazardous Combustion Products: Flammable hydrocarbons, Incomplete combustion products, Oxides of <br />carbon, Smoke, Fume <br />FLAMMABILITY PROPERTIES <br />Flash Point [Method]: N/D <br />Flammable Limits (Approximate volume % in air): LEL N/D UEL: N/D <br />Autoignition Temperature: N/D <br />SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES <br />NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES <br />In the event of a spill or accidental release, notify relevant authorities in accordance with all applicable <br />regulations. US regulations require reporting releases of this material to the environment which exceed the <br />applicable reportable quantity or oil spills which could reach any waterway including intermittent dry creeks. The <br />National Response Center can be reached at (800)424-8802. <br />PROTECTIVE MEASURES <br />Avoid contact with spilled material. Dust Deposits should not be allowed to accumulate on surfaces, as these <br />may form an explosive mixture if they are released into the atmosphere in sufficient concentration. Avoid <br />dispersal of dust in the air (for example, clearing dust surfaces with compressed air). Prevent dust exposure to <br />ignition sources. For example, use non-sparking tools and prohibit smoking, flares, sparks or flames in <br />immediate area. See Section 5 for fire fighting information. See the Hazard Identification Section for <br />Significant Hazards. See Section 4 for First Aid Advice. See Section 8 for advice on the minimum <br />requirements for personal protective equipment. Additional protective measures may be necessary, depending <br />on the specific circumstances and/or the expert judgment of the emergency responders. <br />SPILL MANAGEMENT <br />Land Spill: Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Spilled <br />pellets present a slipping hazard on hard surfaces. Prevent dust cloud. Small Dry Spills: With clean shovel <br />place material into clean, dry container and cover loosely; move containers from spill area. <br />Water Spill: Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Confine the spill immediately with booms. Warn other <br />shipping. Skim from surface. <br />Water spill and land spill recommendations are based on the most likely spill scenario for this material; <br />however, geographic conditions, wind, temperature, (and in the case of a water spill) wave and current direction <br />and speed may greatly influence the appropriate action to be taken. For this reason, local experts should be <br />consulted. Note: Local regulations may prescribe or limit action to be taken. <br />ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS
