Fire Fighting Measures Flammability Classification: NFPA Class IIIB Flash Pt: > 200.00 F (93.3 C) Method Used: Setaflash Closed Cup (Rapid Setaflash) Explosive Limits: LEL: UEL: Special Fire Fighting Procedures As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH approved or equivalent) and full protective gear. Containers can build up pressure if exposed to heat (fire). Storage containers exposed to fire should be kept cool with water spray to prevent pressure build-up. Stay away from heads of containers that have been exposed to intense heat or flame. Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards ne known. Material is thought to have the potential, if soaked in rags, to act as an "oily" rag and could result in spontaneous combustion. Hazardous Combustion Products Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide. Suitable Extinguishing Media Use alcohol foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or water spray when fighting fires involving this material. Unsuitable Extinguishing Media ne Known.
Page: 3 6. Accidental Release Measures Steps To Be Taken In Case Material Is Released Or Spilled Isolate the immediate area. Prevent unauthorized entry. Eliminate all sources of ignition in area and downwind of the spill area. Stay upwind, out of low areas, and ventilate closed spaces before entering. All equipment used when handling this product must be grounded or non-sparking. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Stop leak if you can do so without risk. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, or confined areas. A vapor suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors. Absorb or cover with dry earth, sand, or other non-combustible material and transfer to compatible containers. For large spills, dike ahead of the spill. 7. Handling and Storage Precautions To Be Taken in Handling "Empty" containers retain product residue (liquid and/or vapor) and can be dangerous. As with all chemicals, avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid prolonged contact with skin. Wash thoroughly after handling. Rags contaminated with product may have the potential for spontaneous combustion, as other "oily rags", and presents a fire hazard. Rags contaminated with product should be stored in approved UL listed of FM approved, covered containers. Rags should be allowed to dry before being disposed of. Precautions To Be Taken in Storing Do not store in direct sunlight. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Store in a cool, dry place. Do not store near flames or at elevated temperatures. 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection CAS # OSHA PEL ACGIH TLV Other Limits NA 2. Methyl Soyate 67784-80-9 Respiratory Equipment (Specify Type) When used by the consumer following directions for use and with adequate ventilation, respiratory protection should not be needed. Eye Protection At a minimum, wear safety glasses with side shields. If the material is used in a manner where splashing of liquid is possible, chemical goggles or a face shield should be worn to prevent eye contact. Protective Gloves When used under normal cleaning conditions and as directed, skin protection is generally not required, Individuals with sensitive skin and individuals with repeated or prolonged skin contact with product should wear chemical resistant gloves, such as nitrile rubber. Other Protective Clothing Various application methods can dictate use of additional protective safety equipment, such as impermeable aprons, etc., to minimize exposure. Ventilation When used as directed, ventilation is normally not required when handling or using this product to keep exposure to airborne contaminants below the exposure limit. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. Use with adequate ventilation to prevent buildup of vapors. If strong odor is noticed or you experience slight dizziness, headache, nausea or eye-watering -- STOP -- ventilation is inadequate. Leave area immediately and move to fresh air.
Page: 4 Work/Hygienic/Maintenance Practices Wash hands thoroughly after use and before eating, drinking, or smoking. Do not eat, drink, or smoke in the work area. Discard any clothing or other protective equipment that cannot be decontaminated. A source of clean water should be available in the work area for flushing of eyes and skin. 9.
