| 4. FIRST AID MEASURES | |
FIRST AID MEASURES:
GENERAL ADVICE:
POISON INFORMATION CENTERS IN EACH STATE CAPITAL CITY CAN PROVIDE
ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE FOR SCHEDULED POISONS (13 1126). ENSURE THAT MEDICAL
PERSONNEL ARE AWARE OF THE MATERIAL(S) INVOLVED AND TAKE PRECAUTIONS TO
PROTECT THEMSELVES. FIRST AIDER NEEDS TO PROTECT HIMSELF.

| 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES | |
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
SUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
DRY CHEMICAL. CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2). WATER SPRAY, MIST, OR FOAM.
UNSUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
DO NOT USE A SOLID (STRAIGHT) WATER STREAM AS IT MAY SCATTER AND SPREAD
FIRE.
SPECIFIC HAZARDS ARISING FROM THE CHEMICAL:
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS:
HYDROGEN CHLORIDE, VINYL CHLORIDE, ACETYLENE, PHOSGENE, CARBON MONOXIDE,
CARBON DIOXIDE
SPECIFIC HAZARDS:
FLAMMABLE. MAY BE IGNITED BY HEAT, SPARKS OR FLAMES. VAPOR MAY TRAVEL
CONSIDERABLE DISTANCE TO SOURCE OF IGNITION AND FLASH BACK.VAPORS MAY FORM
EXPLOSIVE MIXTURES WITH AIR. MOST VAPORS ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR. THEY WILL
SPREAD ALONG THE GROUND AND COLLECT IN LOW OR CONFINED AREAS (SEWERS,
BASEMENTS, TANKS). CONTAINER EXPLOSION MAY OCCUR UNDER FIRE CONDITIONS OR
WHEN HEATED. FIRE MAY PRODUCE IRRITATING, CORROSIVE AND/OR TOXIC GASES
HYDROGEN CHLORIDE GAS IS PRODUCED DURING COMBUSTION WHEN HEATED TO
DECOMPOSITION IT EMITS TOXIC FUMES OF HYDROGEN CHLORIDE
SPECIAL PROTECTIVE ACTIONS FOR FIREFIGHTERS:
SPECIFIC METHODS:
WATER MIST MAY BE USED TO COOL CLOSED CONTAINERS. FOR LARGER FIRES, USE
WATER SPRAY OR FOG. COOL CONTAINERS WITH FLOODING QUANTITIES OF WATER
UNTIL WELL AFTER FIRE IS OUT.
SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR FIREFIGHTERS:
AS IN ANY FIRE, WEAR SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS PRESSURE-DEMAND,
MSHA/NIOSH (APPROVED OR EQUIVALENT) AND FULL PROTECTIVE GEAR
| 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES | |
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS, PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES:
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS:
ENSURE ADEQUATE VENTILATION. USE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. AVOID
CONTACT WITH SKIN, EYES AND CLOTHING. KEEP PEOPLE AWAY FROM AND UPWIND OF
SPILL/LEAK. DO NOT TOUCH DAMAGED CONTAINERS OR SPILLED MATERIAL UNLESS
WEARING APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. REMOVE ALL SOURCES OF IGNITION.
PAY ATTENTION TO FLASHBACK. TAKE PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES AGAINST STATIC
DISCHARGES. ALL EQUIPMENT USED WHEN HANDLING THE PRODUCT MUST BE GROUNDED.
IN CASE OF LARGE SPILL, WATER SPRAY OR VAPOR SUPPRESSING FOAM MAY BE USED
TO REDUCE VAPORS, BUT MAY NOT PREVENT IGNITION IN CLOSED SPACES. USE
SPARK-PROOF TOOLS AND EXPLOSION-PROOF EQUIPMENT.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS:
PREVENT FURTHER LEAKAGE OR SPILLAGE IF SAFE TO DO SO. PREVENT ENTRY INTO
WATERWAYS, SEWERS, BASEMENTS OR CONFINED AREAS.
METHODS AND MATERIAL FOR CONTAINMENT AND CLEANING UP:
METHODS FOR CONTAINMENT:
STOP LEAK IF YOU CAN DO IT WITHOUT RISK. ABSORB SPILL WITH INERT MATERIAL
(E.G. VERMICULITE, DRY SAND OR EARTH). IN CASE OF LARGE SPILL, DIKE IF
NEEDED. DIKE FAR AHEAD OF LIQUID SPILL FOR LATER DISPOSAL.
METHODS FOR CLEANING UP:
SWEEP UP AND SHOVEL. USE APPROPRIATE TOOLS TO PUT THE SPILLED MATERIAL IN
A SUITABLE CHEMICAL WASTE DISPOSAL CONTAINER. USE ONLY NON-SPARKING TOOLS.
CLEAN CONTAMINATED SURFACE THOROUGHLY.
| 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE | |
PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING:
TECHNICAL MEASURES/PRECAUTIONS:
PROVIDE SUFFICIENT AIR EXCHANGE AND/OR EXHAUST IN WORK ROOMS. REMOVE ALL
SOURCES OF IGNITION. TO AVOID IGNITION OF VAPORS BY STATIC ELECTRICITY
DISCHARGE, ALL METAL PARTS OF THE EQUIPMENT MUST BE GROUNDED. KEEP AWAY
FROM INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS.
