SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
5.1 Extinguishable media
Suitable methods of extinction:
Unsuitable methods of extinction:
5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Solutions containing glycol ethers such as dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether in water can form flammable vapors with air if heated sufficiently.
Closed containers may explode (due to the build-up of pressure) when exposed to extreme heat. During emergency conditions overexposure
to decomposition products may cause a health hazard. Symptoms may not be immediately apparent. Obtain medical attention.
5.3 Advice for firefighters
Full protective equipment including self-contained breathing apparatus should be used. Water may be used to cool closed containers to prevent
pressure build-up and possible autoignition or explosion when exposed to extreme heat. If possible, firefighters should control run-off water to
prevent environmental contamination.
Water fog, water spray, dry chemical, alcohol resistant foam and carbon dioxide.
None known
SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Wear appropriate protective clothing designated in Section 8. Ventilate the area.
6.2 Environmental precautions
Avoid dispersal of spilled material or run-off and prevent contact with soil and entry into drains, sewers or waterways.
6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Cover drains. Cover with a large quantity of inert absorbent. Collect product using a shovel or broom and into place into an approved container
for proper disposal. Observe possible material restrictions (section 7.2 and 10.5). Clean contaminated area with soap and water.
6.4 Reference to other sections
For indications about waste treatment, see section 13.
SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
7.1 Precautions for safe handling
Observe label precautions. Wear all appropriate protective equipment specified in Section 8. Keep containers closed when not in use.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion
Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Solutions containing glycol ethers in water can form flammable vapors with air if heated sufficiently.
7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Keep in cool, dry, ventilated storage areas in closed containers. Transfer only to approved containers having correct labeling. Containers that
have been opened should be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not take internally. Keep out of reach of children.
7.3 Specific end uses
Apart from the uses mentioned in section 1.2, no other specific uses are stipulated.
