Fire Fighting MeasuresBack to Contents
【Flash Point】

130
【Fire Fighting】

Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind; keep out of low areas. Wear self-contained (positive pressure if available) breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.This material may burn but does not ignite readily. Small fires: dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or foam. Large fires: Water spray, fog or foam. Move container from fire area if you can do it without risk.
【Fire Potential】

Combustible Liquid.
Accidental Release MeasuresBack to Contents
【Small spills/leaks】

Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind; keep out of low areas. If water pollution occurs, notify appropriate authorities. Do not touch spilled material; stop leak if you can do so without risk. Small spills: absorb with sand or other noncombustible absorbent material and place into containers for later disposal. Small dry spills: with clean shovel, place material into clean, dry container and cover; move containers from spill area. Large spills: dike far ahead of spill for alter disposal.
