First-aid measures

EYES

Irrigate eyes with a heavy stream of water for at least 15 to 20 minutes

SKIN

Wash exposed areas of the body with soap and water

INHALATION

Remove from area of exposure; seek medical attention if symptoms persist

INGESTION

Give one or two glasses of water to drink. If gastro-intestinal symptoms develop, consult medical personnel. (Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person)

Fire-fighting measures

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:

Dry chemical, foam, halon (may not be permissible in some countries), CO2, water spray (fog). Water stream may splash the burning liquid and

spread fire.

SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES:

Use water spray to cool drums exposed to fire.

UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS:

Biodiesel soaked rags or spill absorbents (i.e. oil dry, polypropylene socks, sand, etc.) can cause spontaneous combustion if stored near combustibles and not handled properly. Store biodiesel soaked rags or spill absorbents in approved safety containers and dispose of properly. Oil soaked ragsmay be washed with soap and water and allowed to dry in well ventilated area. Firefighters should use self-contained breathing apparatus to avoid

exposure to smoke and vapor

Accidental release measures

Remove sources of ignition, contain spill to smallest area possible. Stop leak if possible.

Pick up small spills with absorbent materials and dispose of properly to avoid spontaneous combustion (see unusual fire and explosion hazards above).

Recover large spills for salvage or disposal. Wash hard surfaces with safety solvent or detergent to remove remaining oil film. Greasy nature will result in a slippery surface.

Handling and storage

Store in closed containers between 50°F and 120°F.

Keep away from oxidizing agents, excessive heat, and ignition sources.

Store and use in well ventilated areas.

Do not store or use near heat, spark, or flame, store out of sun.

Do not puncture, drag, or slide this container.

Drum is not a pressure vessel; never use pressure to empty.
