Ingestion: If swallowed, seek medical attention.  Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel.  

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:   Water spray  Alcohol-resistant foam  Carbon dioxide (CO2)  Dry chemical  

Hazardous combustion products: Silicon oxides  Formaldehyde  Carbon oxides

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Exposure to combustion products may be a hazard to health.  

Fire Fighting Procedures: Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.  Use water spray to cool unopened containers.  Remove undamaged containers from fire area if it is safe to do so.  Evacuate area.  Special protective equipment for firefighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.  Use personal protective equipment.  

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Follow safe handling advice and personal protective equipment recommendations.  

Environmental precautions: Discharge into the environment must be avoided.  Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.  Prevent spreading over a wide area (e.g. by containment or oil barriers).  Retain and dispose of contaminated wash water.  Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.  

When release;  Soak up with inert absorbent material.  Clean up remaining materials from spill with suitable absorbant.  Local or national regulations may apply to releases and disposal of this material, as well as those materials and items employed in the cleanup of releases. You will need to determine which regulations are applicable.  For large spills, provide dyking or other appropriate containment to keep material from spreading. If dyked material can be pumped,  Sections 13 and 15 of this SDS provide information regarding certain local or national requirements.  

Handling and storage

Take care to prevent spills, waste and minimize release to the environment.  Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
