FIRE
AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE GAS Keep vapor away from heat* sparks* flame and other ignition sources including* tout not limited to* pilot lights* heaters* cigarettes* electric motors and static discharge# Vapor is heavier than air and itsaj settle in low places or travel outward to a source of ignition and f1ashback In case of fire* allow das to burn if flow cannot be shut off immediately# Apply water from a safe distance to cool container and protect surrounding area#
REACTIVITY DATA Normally stable* but mas become unstable at high temperatures or maw react with water#
CONTROL MEASURES If airborne contaminants are generated when the material is heated or handled* sufficient ventilation in volume and air flow patterns should be provided to keep air contaminant concentration levels below acceptable criteria# ENGINEERING CONTROLS: The following exposure control techniaues maw be used to effectively minimize employee exposure# local exhaust ventilation* enclosed system design* process isolation and remote control in combination with appropriate use of personal protective ecuiirment and prudent work practices# These techniaues may not necessarily address all issues pertaining to your operations* We* therefore* recommend that sou consult with experts of your choice to determine whether or not your programs are adeauate#
PERSONAL PROTECTION INFORMATION Wear full protective suit 8 boots if contact is likely# Where air contaminants can exceed acceptable criteria* use NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory protection equipment# Respirators should be selected based on the form and concentration of contaminants in air in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1?10#134 or other applicable standards or guidelines# Use goggles 3nd face shield if contact is likely# Wear impervious gloves as required to prevent skin contact
