General information Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to
protect themselves.

5. Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media Water fog. Foam. Dry chemical powder. Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Unsuitable extinguishing Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.

6. Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep upwind. Keep out of low areas. Wear appropriate
protective equipment and personal protective equipment. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless
emergency procedures wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation.
Methods and materials for Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Keep
containment and cleaning up combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. Stop leak if you can do so without
risk. Move the cylinder to a safe and open area if the leak is irreparable. Absorb in vermiculite, dry
sand or earth and place into containers. Following product recovery, flush area with water.

Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to
remove residual contamination. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the MSDS.
Environmental precautions Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.

7. Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling Pressurized container: Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Do not use if spray button is missing
or defective. Do not spray on a naked flame or any other incandescent material. Do not smoke
while using or until sprayed surface is thoroughly dry. Do not cut, weld, solder, drill, grind, or
expose containers to heat, flame, sparks, or other sources of ignition. Ground and bond containers
when transferring material. Avoid inhalation of aerosols. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Do not
re-use empty containers.
Conditions for safe storage, Level 1 Aerosol.
including any incompatibilities
Contents under pressure. Do not handle or store near an open flame, heat or other sources of
ignition. Do not expose to heat or store at temperatures above 120F/49C as can may burst.
Protect from direct sunlight. Do not puncture, incinerate or crush. Store away from incompatible
materials (see Section 10 of the MSDS).

Biological limit values No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s).
Appropriate engineering Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates
controls should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation,
or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If
exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Skin protection
Hand protection Wear protective gloves.
Other Wear suitable protective clothing.
Respiratory protection If permissible levels are exceeded use NIOSH mechanical filter / organic vapor cartridge or an
air-supplied respirator.
Thermal hazards Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.
General hygiene When using do not smoke. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing
considerations after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work
clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants.
