Hazards type:Non-hazards
Human health hazards:
The steam pressure of the product is low,so there is no inhalation hazards.
Combustion hazards: combustible, non irritating
Eye Contact:
Check for and remove any contact lenses. Immediately flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes,
keeping eyelids
open. Cold water maybe used. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact:
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient.

5. | FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES |
FLASH POINT : >150°C
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Foam Carbon dioxide Dry powder Other extinguishing agent suitable for Class B fires For large fires, use
water spray or fog, thoroughly drenching the burning material. Water mist maybe used to cool closed
containers.
UNSUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Do not use water unless flooding amounts are available.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Low Fire Hazard; liquids may burn upon heating to temperatures at or above the flashpoint. Empty
product containers may contain product residue. Do not pressurize, cut, heat, weld, or expose containers to
flame or other sources of ignition. May evolve oxides of carbon (COx) under fire conditions.
SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR FIRE FIGHTING
In case of fire, wear a full face positive-pressure self contained breathing apparatus and protective suit.
6. | ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES |
Small Spill:
Dilute with water and mop up, or absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container.
Large Spill:
Flammable liquid. Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Stop leak if without risk. Absorb with DRY earth,
sand or other non-combustible material. Do not touch spilled material. Prevent entry into sewers, basements or confined
areas; dike if needed. Be careful that the product is not present at a concentration level above TLV. Check TLV on the MSDS
and with local authorities.
HANDLING
Do not get in eyes, on skin, on clothing. Do not take internally. Use with adequate ventilation. Do not
breathe vapors/gases/dust. Keep the containers closed when not in use. Have emergency equipment (for fires,
spills, leaks, etc.) readily available. Ensure all containers are labelled.
STORAGE CONDITIONS
Store in suitable labelled containers. Store the containers tightly closed. Store separately from oxidizers.
Store away from heat and sources of ignition. Protect product from freezing.
