Suitable and unsuitable extinguishing m edia:

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use carbon dioxide (CO 2) or dry chem ical when fighting fires involving this m aterial.
Unsuitable extinguishing m edia: W ater or foam m ay cause frothing.
Unusual Fire Hazards: Sealed containers at elevated tem peratures m ay rupture explosively and spread fire due to
polym erization. Heating above 300 deg F in the presence of air m ay cause slow oxidative
decom position and above 500 deg F m ay cause polym erization.

Special protective equipm ent and precautions for fire-fighters:


Protective Equipm ent: As in any fire, wear Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA), MSHA/NIO SH (approved or equivalent)
and full protective gear.

Fire Fighting Instructions: Evacuate area of unprotected personnel. Use cold water spray to cool fire exposed containers to
m inim ize risk of rupture. Do not enter confined fire space without full protective gear. If possible,
contain fire run-off water.

SECTION 6 : ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions, protective equipm ent and em ergency procedures:

Personal Precautions: Evacuate area and keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering the spill area.

Environm ental precautions:


Environm ental Precautions: Avoid runoff into storm sewers, ditches, and waterways.
Methods and m aterials for containm ent and cleaning up:

Spill Cleanup Measures: Absorb spill with inert m aterial (e,g., dry sand or earth), then place in a chem ical waste container.
Provide ventilation. Clean up spills im m ediately observing precautions in the protective equipm ent
section. After rem oval, flush spill area with soap and water to rem ove trace residue.
Avoid personal contact and breathing vapors or m ists. Ventilate area. Use proper personal protective
equipm ent as listed in Section 8.
Reference to other sections:
O ther Precautions: Pum p or shovel to storage/salvage vessels.

SECTION 7 : HANDLING and STORAGE

Precautions for safe handling:


Handling: Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing vapor, aerosol or m ist.

Hygiene Practices: W ash thoroughly after handling.


Special Handling Procedures: Provide appropriate ventilation/respiratory protection against decom position products (see Section 10)
during welding/flam e cutting operations and to protect against dust during sanding/grinding of cured
product.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incom patibilities:
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area away from sources of heat and incom patible m aterials. Keep
container tightly closed when not in use.

SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION

EXPO SURE GUIDELINES:

Appropriate engineering controls:

Engineering Controls: Use appropriate engineering control such as process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other
engineering controls to control airborne levels below recom m ended exposure lim its. Good general
ventilation should be sufficient to control airborne levels. W here such system s are not effective wear
suitable personal protective equipm ent, which perform s satisfactorily and m eets O SHA or other
recognized standards. Consult with local procedures for selection, training, inspection and m aintenance
of the personal protective equipm ent.

Individual protection m easures:


Eye/Face Protection: W ear appropriate protective glasses or splash goggles as described by 29 CFR 1910.133, O SHA eye
and face protection regulation, or the European standard EN 166.

Skin Protection Description: W ear appropriate protective gloves and other protective apparel to prevent skin contact. Consult
m anufacturer's data for perm eability data.

Respiratory Protection: A NIO SH approved air-purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or canister m ay be
perm issible under certain circum stances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed
exposure lim its. Protection provided by air purifying respirators is lim ited. Use a positive pressure air
supplied respirator if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known,
or any other circum stances where air purifying respirators m ay not provide adequate protection.

O ther Protective: Facilities storing or utilizing this m aterial should be equipped with an eyewash and a deluge shower
safety station.

Notes : O nly established PEL and TLV values for the ingredients are listed.
