| 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES |
|
Suitable Extinguishing Media |
Use the extinguisher appropriate to the principal fire hazard or to the source of the fire. |
Special Protective Equipment for fire fighters |
If this product is involved in a fire, firefighters should wear full protective equipment including self-contained breathing apparatus. |
| Specific Hazards |
As this product is an oil-in-water emulsion, it is not flammable under the conditions of use and does not support combustion. However, if the emulsion breaks then the flash point of the solvent layer will be that for White Spirit, which is 35°C (ASTM D-56). |
|
| 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES |
|
| Spills & Disposal |
Personnel involved in cleaning up any spills are to wear gloves and goggles. If there is the possibility of a fire, then personnel should also wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Cordon off the spillage area. Isolate the source of the spillage or leak. Contain the spillage using a suitable non-flammable absorbent material such as sand or diatomaceous earth, and then transfer into sealed plastic containers for disposal. |
|
| 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE |
|
Handling and Storage |
Store in plastic containers in a clean, dry, cool, well ventilated place away from foodstuffs. Keep container sealed when not in use. |
