Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media - Dry chemical. Alcohol-resistant foam. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Water spray.Specific hazards during firefighting - Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.Advice for firefighters - Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessaryFurther information - Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguising water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. For safety reasons in case of fire, cans should be stored separately in closed containments. Use a water spray to cool fully closed containers.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions - Use personal protective equipment. Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Beware of vapours accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapours can accumulate in low areas.Environmental precautions - Prevent product from entering drains. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities.Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up - Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to local / national regulations (see section 13).
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling - Advice on safe handling : Avoid formation of aerosol. Do not breathe vapours/dust. Avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use. Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms. Open drum carefully as content may be under pressure. To avoid spills during handling keep bottle on a metal tray. Dispose of rinse water in accordance with local and national regulations.Advice on protection against fire and explosion - Do not spray on a naked flame or any incandescent material. Take necessary action to avoid static electricity discharge (which might cause ignition of organic vapours). Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition.Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities - Requirements for storage areas and containers - No smoking. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Electrical installations / working materials must comply with the technological safety standards.
