LEL/UEL: NO DATA
AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE: NO DATA
UNUSUAL FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARDS:
OXIDIZER. THE DRY CHEMICAL OF THIS MATERIAL IS AN OXIDIZER AND MAY INCREASE
INFLAMMABILITY OF ANY COMBUSTIBLE SUBSTANCE. IT IS THE NATURE OF OXIDIZERS
TO PROVIDE THEIR OWN OXYGEN SOURCE; SMOTHERING A FIRE MAY BE INEFFECTIVE.
NITRATE SALTS SUPPORT COMBUSTION UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS. AMMONIUM NITRATE
IS CAPABLE OF DETONATION IF HEATED UNDER CONFINEMENT OR IF SUBJECTED TO
STRONG SHOCKS. ORGANIC OR OTHER EASILY OXIDIZABLE MATTER CAN SENSITIZE IT
TO A MORE READILY EXPLODABLE STATE. DO NOT ALLOW PRODUCT TO EVAPORATE TO
DRYNESS, ESPECIALLY IN CONTACT WITH COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
USE WATER ONLY. DO NOT USE DRY CHEMICAL, CARBON DIOXIDE OR FOAM.
FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS:
FOR FIRES BEYOND THE INCIPIENT STAGE, EMERGENCY RESPONDERS IN THE IMMEDIATE
HAZARD AREA SHOULD WEAR BUNKER GEAR. WHEN THE POTENTIAL CHEMICAL HAZARD IS
UNKNOWN, IN ENCLOSED OR CONFINED SPACES, OR WHEN EXPLICITLY REQUIRED BY
DOT, A SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS SHOULD BE WORN. IN ADDITION, WEAR
OTHER APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AS CONDITIONS WARRANT (SEE SECTION
8). ISOLATE IMMEDIATE HAZARD AREA AND KEEP UNAUTHORIZED PERSONNEL OUT. STOP
SPILL/RELEASE IF IT CAN BE DONE WITH MINIMAL RISK. MOVE UNDAMAGED
CONTAINERS FROM IMMEDIATE HAZARD AREA IF IT CAN BE DONE WITH MINIMAL RISK.
WATER SPRAY MAY BE USEFUL IN MINIMIZING OR DISPERSING VAPORS. COOL
EQUIPMENT EXPOSED TO FIRE WITH WATER, IF IT CAN BE DONE WITH MINIMAL RISK.
| 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES | |
THE DRY CHEMICAL OF THIS MATERIAL IS AN OXIDIZER. KEEP ALL SOURCES OF
IGNITION AND HOT METAL SURFACES AWAY FROM SPILL/RELEASE. THE USE OF
EXPLOSION-PROOF EQUIPMENT IS RECOMMENDED.
STAY UPWIND AND AWAY FROM SPILL/RELEASE. NOTIFY PERSON DOWN WIND OF
SPILL/RELEASE, ISOLATE IMMEDIATE HAZARD AREA AND KEEP UNAUTHORIZED
PERSONNEL OUT. STOP SPILL/RELEASE IF IT CAN BE DONE WITH MINIMAL RISK. WEAR
APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT INCLUDING RESPIRATORY PROTECTION AS
CONDITIONS WARRANT (SEE SECTION 8). PREVENT SPILLED MATERIAL FROM ENTERING
SEWERS, STORM DRAINS, OTHER UNAUTHORIZED TREATMENT DRAINAGE SYSTEMS, AND
NATURAL WATERWAYS. DIKE FAR AHEAD OF SPILL FOR LATER RECOVERY OR DISPOSAL.
SPILLED MATERIAL MAY BE ABSORBED INTO AN APPROPRIATE ABSORBENT MATERIAL.
NOTIFY APPROPRIATE FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL AGENCIES. IMMEDIATE CLEANUP OF
ANY SPILL IS RECOMMENDED.
| 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE | |
HANDLING:
DO NOT ENTER CONFINED SPACES SUCH AS TANKS OR PITS WITHOUT FOLLOWING PROPER
ENTRY PROCEDURES SUCH AS ASTM D-4276 AND 29 CFR 1910.146. THE USE OF
APPROPRIATE RESPIRATORY PROTECTION IS ADVISED WHEN CONCENTRATIONS EXCEED
ANY ESTABLISHED EXPOSURE LIMITS (SEE SECTION 2 AND 8). WASH THOROUGHLY

ADDITIONAL VENTILATION OR EXHAUST SYSTEMS MAY BE REQUIRED.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE):
RESPIRATORY:
A NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED AIR PURIFYING RESPIRATOR WITH A N95 FILTER MAY BE
USED UNDER CONDITIONS WHERE AIRBORNE CONCENTRATIONS ARE EXPECTED TO EXCEED
EXPOSURE LIMITS (SEE SECTION 2). PROTECTION PROVIDED BY AIR PURIFYING
RESPIRATORS IS LIMITED (SEE MANUFACTURER'S RESPIRATOR SELECTION GUIDE). USE
A POSITIVE PRESSURE AIR SUPPLIED RESPIRATOR IF THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR AN
UNCONTROLLED RELEASE, EXPOSURE LEVELS ARE NOT KNOWN, OR ANY OTHER
CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE AIR PURIFYING RESPIRATORS MAY NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE
PROTECTION. A RESPIRATORY PROTECTION PROGRAM THAT MEETS OSHA'S 29 CFR
1910.134 AND ANSI Z88.2 REQUIREMENTS MUST BE FOLLOWED WHENEVER WORKPLACE
CONDITIONS WARRANT A RESPIRATOR'S USE.
SKIN:
THE USE OF GLOVES IMPERMEABLE TO THE SPECIFIC MATERIAL HANDLED IS ADVISED
TO PREVENT SKIN CONTACT, POSSIBLE IRRITATION, ABSORPTION, AND SKIN DAMAGE
(SEE GLOVE MANUFACTURER LITERATURE FOR INFORMATION ON PERMEABILITY).
DEPENDING ON CONDITIONS OF USE, APRON AND/OR ARM COVERS MAY BE NECESSARY.
EYE/FACE:
APPROVED EYE PROTECTION TO SAFEGUARD AGAINST POTENTIAL EYE CONTACT,
IRRITATION, OR INJURY IS RECOMMENDED. DEPENDING ON CONDITIONS OF USE, A
FACE SHIELD MAY BE NECESSARY.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT:
A SOURCE OF CLEAN WATER SHOULD BE AVAILABLE IN THE WORK AREA FOR FLUSHING
EYES AND SKIN. IMPERVIOUS CLOTHING SHOULD BE WORN AS NEEDED.
