Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures

Flammable Category 4 (GHS), C1 combustible (AS 1940)
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media: Use an extinguishing agent suitable for the surrounding fire.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: None known
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Hazards from the substance or mixture: This material is harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects. Fire
water contaminated with this material must be contained and prevented from being discharged to any waterway,
sewer or drain.
Hazardous thermal decomposition products: Decomposition products may include carbon monoxide, carbon
dioxide.
Advice for firefighters
Special protective actions for fire-fighters: Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the
vicinity of the incident if there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.
Special protective equipment for fire-fighters: Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and
self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure mode.

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions, Protective Equipment and Emergency Procedures:
For non-emergency personnel: No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.
Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Do not touch or walk
through spilt material. Provide adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is inadequate. Put
on appropriate personal protective equipment.
For emergency responders: If specialised clothing is required to deal with the spillage, take note of any information
in Section 8 on suitable and unsuitable materials. See also the information in "For non-emergency personnel".
Environmental Precautions: Avoid dispersal of spilt material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains and
sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or
air). Water polluting material. May be harmful to the environment if released in large quantities.
Methods and Material for Containment and Cleaning Up:
Small spill: Move containers from spill area. Avoid dust generation. Using a vacuum with HEPA filter will reduce dust
dispersal. Place spilled material in a designated, labelled waste container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal
contractor.
Large spill: Move containers from spill area. Approach the release from upwind. Prevent entry into sewers, water
courses, basements or confined areas. Avoid dust generation. Do not dry sweep. Vacuum dust with equipment fitted
with a HEPA filter and place in a closed, labelled waste container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal
contractor.
Reference to Other Sections: See Section 1 for emergency contact information
See Section 8 for information on appropriate personal protective equipment
See Section 13 for additional waste treatment information
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
Precautions for safe handling
Protective measures: Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Persons with a history of
skin sensitization problems should not be employed in any process in which this product is used. Do not get in eyes or
on skin or clothing. Do not ingest. Avoid release to the environment. Keep in the original container or an approved
alternative made from a compatible material, kept tightly closed when not in use. Empty containers retain product
residue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse container.
Advice on general occupational hygiene: Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this
material is handled, stored and processed. Workers should wash hands and face before eating, drinking and
smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas. See also Section 8
for additional information on hygiene measures.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Storage: Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry,
cool and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials (see Section 10) and food and drink. Keep container
tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept

Section 8 - Exposure Controls and Personal Protection
The following Australian Standards will provide general advice regarding safety clothing and equipment:
Respiratory equipment: AS/NZS 1715, Protective Gloves: AS 2161, Occupational Protective Clothing: AS/NZS 4501
set 2008, Industrial Eye Protection: AS1336 and AS/NZS 1337, Occupational Protective Footwear: AS/NZS2210.
SWA Exposure Limits TWA (mg/m3) STEL (mg/m3)
Exposure limits have not been established by SWA for this product.
No special equipment is usually needed when occasionally handling small quantities. The following instructions are
for bulk handling or where regular exposure in an occupational setting occurs without proper containment systems.
Engineering Controls Ventilation: Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control worker exposure to
airborne contaminants..
Individual protection measures
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before eating,
smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period. Appropriate techniques should be used to
remove potentially contaminated clothing. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace.
Wash contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the
workstation location.
Eye/face protection: Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk assessment
indicates this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists, gases or dusts. If contact is possible, the
following protection should be worn, unless the assessment indicates a higher degree of protection: safety glasses
with side-shields.
Skin protection:
Hand protection: Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn at all
times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Considering the parameters
specified by the glove manufacturer, check during use that the gloves are still retaining their protective properties. It
should be noted that the time to breakthrough for any glove material may be different for different glove
manufacturers. In the case of mixtures, consisting of several substances, the protection time of the gloves cannot be
accurately estimated.
Body Protection: Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being performed
and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling this product.
Other skin protection: Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures should be selected based
on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling this
product.
Respiratory protection: Use a properly fitted, particulate filter respirator complying with an approved standard if a
risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Respirator selection must be based on known or anticipated exposure
levels, the hazards of the product and the safe working limits of the selected respirator.
Environmental exposure controls: Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to
ensure they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some cases, fume scrubbers,
filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable
levels.
