Section 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable extinguishing media
Dry chemical, CO2, water spray or alcohol-resistant foam.
Not to be used for safety reasons: Strong water jet
Specific hazards arising from the chemical
Burning produces heavy smoke. Fire may produce irritating and/or toxic gases. In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe
fumes.
Special protective equipment for fire-fighters
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit. Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is
out. Do not allow run-off from fire-fighting to enter drains or water courses.
Section 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal precautions
Product Code MC01.C01 Page 3 / 10 AGHS - USA OSHA SDS
Avoid breathing vapors or mists. Remove all sources of ignition. Use personal protective equipment as required. Avoid contact with
skin, eyes or clothing. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Take precautionary
measures against static discharges.
For emergency responders
Use personal protection recommended in Section 8.
Environmental precautions
Do not allow into any sewer, on the ground or into any body of water. If the product contaminates lakes, rivers or sewage, inform
appropriate authorities in accordance with local regulations. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Local authorities
should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for containment
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.
Methods for cleaning up
Dispose of waste product or used containers according to local regulations. Clean with detergents. Avoid solvent cleaners. Dam
up. Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust). Pick up and transfer to
properly labeled containers. Clean contaminated surface thoroughly.
Section 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling
Advice on safe handling
Prevent the creation of flammable or explosive concentrations of vapor in air and avoid vapor concentration higher than the
occupational exposure limits. Operators should wear anti-static footwear and clothing and floors should be of the conducting type.
Use personal protection recommended in Section 8. Never use pressure to empty container. Comply with the health and safety at
work laws. Prevent product from entering drains. Vapors are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Vapors may form
explosive mixtures with air. Use only with adequate ventilation. Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Use only in
well-ventilated areas. Keep away from heat, sparks, flame and other sources of ignition (i.e., pilot lights, electric motors and static
electricity). Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. All
equipment used when handling the product must be grounded.
General Hygiene Considerations
When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Storage Conditions
Keep/store only in original container. Store in accordance with local regulations. Keep unauthorized personnel away. Containers
that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and
well-ventilated place. Keep tightly closed in a dry and cool place.
Incompatible materials
Strong oxidizing agents.

Appropriate engineering controls
Engineering Controls
Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Provide local exhaust ventilation. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear
suitable respiratory equipment.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection
Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Skin and body protection
Wear suitable protective clothing. Personnel should wear anti-static clothing made of natural fiber or of high temperature
resistant synthetic fiber.
Hand Protection
There is no one glove material or combination of materials that will give unlimited resistance to any individual or combination of
chemicals. Ensure that the breakthrough time of the glove material is not exceeded. Refer to glove supplier for information on
breakthrough time for specific gloves. The instructions and information provided by the glove manufacturer on use, storage,
maintenance and replacement must be followed. Gloves should be replaced regularly and if there is any sign of damage to the
glove material. Always ensure that gloves are free from defects and that they are stored and used correctly. The performance
or effectiveness of the glove may be reduced by physical / chemical damage and poor maintenance. Wear protective gloves.
Respiratory protection
When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators.
