Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point: 12.0°C ( DIN 51755, Part 1)
Flammable Limits: Lower: 1.3% Vol. Upper: 19.0% Vol.

Auto-ignition point: 255.0° C (DIN 51794)
Fire Extinguishing Media: Water spray or mist (DO NOT use water full jet), special quenching powder, quenching foam (use large amounts of foam as it will be partially destroyed), carbon dioxide.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Danger of explosion with fire.

Hazardous combustion products: Do not inhale explosive gases or smoke fumes: carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides.

DOT Class: Flammable

Section 6: Accidental Release Measures
Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled: Remove all sources of ignition if safe to do so. Keep person at a distance and stay away from fumes. Wear personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Absorb with liquid-binding material (sand, infusorial earth inert absorbent). If you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately.  Prevent penetration into soil, stretches of water and drainage systems.
Waste Disposal Methods: Dispose of waste according to Federal, State and Local Regulations.

Section 7: Handling and Storage
Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storage: The product should be handled by trained personnel. Keep container tightly closed and store in a dry, well-ventilated place.  Ensure suitable suction/aeration at the work place and with operational machinery (Fume hood). Highly volatile substances may be released during processing, therefore avoided sources of ignition. Do not empty into drains. No smoking. Avoid exposure. Obtain special instructions before use. If there is a danger of exceeding the explosion limits, keep container tightly closed and store in a dry, well-ventilated place. Take precautionary measure against static discharges. Product is slightly water-polluting.
