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. DIKE FIRE-CONTROL WATER FOR LATER DISPOSAL; DO NOT
SCATTER THE MATERIAL.
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:

SPILL/LEAK. AVOID CONTACT WITH SKIN, EYES AND CLOTHING. USE PERSONAL
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. DO NOT TOUCH DAMAGED CONTAINERS OR SPILLED MATERIAL
UNLESS WEARING APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. REMOVE ALL SOURCES OF
IGNITION.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS:
PREVENT FURTHER LEAKAGE OR SPILLAGE IF SAFE TO DO SO. DO NOT LET PRODUCT
ENTER DRAINS. PREVENT ENTRY INTO WATERWAYS, SEWERS, BASEMENTS OR CONFINED
AREAS. IN CASE OF LARGE SPILL, DIKE IF NEEDED. DIKE FAR AHEAD OF LIQUID
SPILL FOR LATER DISPOSAL.
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).
METHODS FOR CLEANING UP:

REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY: NO DATA IS AVAILABLE
REPRODUCTIVE EFFECTS:
THERE IS CONCERN THAT METHYLENE CHLORIDE EXPOSURE MAY PRODUCE TESTICULAR
TOXICITY, BUT ANIMAL AND HUMAN DATA ON THIS MATTER IS VERY LIMITED. IN ONE
GROUP OF CASE REPORTS, 4 OF 34 MEN WITH OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE TO METHYLENE
CHLORIDE WERE FOUND TO HAVE SPERM CONCENTRATIONS IN THE SUBFERTILE OR
INFERTILE RANGE. FOUR OTHER MEN HAD TESTICULAR OR PROSTATIC PAIN. IN A
SMALL UNCONTROLLED STUDY ORGANIZED BY THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF
OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH, NO SIGNS OF OLIGOSPERMIA WERE FOUND IN
20 WORKERS EXPOSED TO METHYLENE CHLORIDE
DEVELOPMENTAL EFFECTS:
A POSSIBLE ASSOCIATION WITH SPONTANEOUS ABORTION HAS BEEN NOTED IN 2 HUMAN
STUDIES. HOWEVER, THERE IS LIMITED EVIDENCE
TERATOGENIC EFFECTS:
MAY CAUSE BIRTH DEFECTS (TERATOGENIC EFFECTS) BASED ON ANIMAL TEST DATA
SHOWED TERATOGENIC EFFECTS IN ANIMAL EXPERIMENTS
HIGH DOSES OF METHYLENE CHLORIDE GIVEN TO PREGNANT RATS AND MICE WERE SHOWN
BY ONE STUDY TO INCREASE THE INCIDENCE OF MINOR SKELETAL ANOMALIES ALTHOUGH
OTHER STUDIES IN RATS FOUND THIS AGENT NOT TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH AN
INCREASE IN CONGENITAL ANOMALIES
