Section 5 - Firefighting Measures Suitable Extinguishing Media Use appropriate fire extinguisher for surrounding environment. Hazards from Combustion Products Under fire conditions this product may emit toxic and/or irritating fumes, smoke and gases including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and oxides of nitrogen. Specific hazards arising from the chemical This product is non-combustible. However, following evaporation of aqueous component under fire conditions, the non-aqueous component may decompose and/or burn. Decomposition Temperature Not available Precautions in connection with Fire Fire fighters should wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) operated in positive pressure mode. Fight fire from safe location. Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures Emergency Procedures Wear appropriate personal protective equipment and clothing to prevent exposure. Increase ventilation. If possible contain the spill. Place inert absorbent material onto spillage. Collect the material and place into a suitable labelled container. Do not dilute material but contain. Dispose of waste according to the applicable local and national regulations. If contamination of sewers or waterways occurs inform the local water and waste management authorities in accordance with local regulations. As a water based product, if spilt on electrical equipment the product will cause short-circuits. Section 7 - Handling and Storage Precautions for Safe Handling Avoid inhalation of vapours and mists, and skin or eye contact. Use only in a well ventilated area. Keep containers sealed when not in use. Prevent the build up of mists or vapours in the work atmosphere. Maintain high standards of personal hygiene i.e. Washing hands prior to eating, drinking, smoking or using toilet facilities. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, out of direct sunlight. Store in suitable, labelled containers. Keep containers tightly closed. Store away from incompatible materials. Ensure that storage conditions comply with applicable local and national regulations. Protect from freezing. Section 8 - Exposure Controls and Personal Protection Occupational exposure limit values General use: Not required. Industrial use: No exposure standards have been established for this material. However, the available exposure limits for ingredients are listed below: Potassium hydroxide TWA: 2 mg/m³ (peak) TWA (Time Weighted Average): The average airborne concentration of a particular substance when calculated over a normal eight-hour working day, for a five-day week. Peak Limitation: A ceiling concentration which should not be exceeded over a measurement period which should be as short as possible but not exceeding 15 minutes. Source: Safe Work Australia. Biological Monitoring General use: Not required. Industrial use: No biological limits allocated. Engineering Controls General use: Use with good general ventilation. If mists or vapours are produced, local exhaust ventilation should be used. Industrial use: This substance is hazardous and should be used with a local exhaust ventilation system, drawing vapours away from workers' breathing zone. If the engineering controls are not sufficient to maintain concentrations of vapours/mists below the exposure standards, suitable respiratory protection must be worn. Respiratory Protection General use: Not required Industrial use: If engineering controls are not effective in controlling airborne exposure then an approved respirator with a replaceable vapor/mist filter should be used. Refer to relevant regulations for further information concerning respiratory protective requirements. Reference should be made to Australian Standards AS/NZS 1715, Selection, Use and Maintenance of Respiratory Protective Devices; and AS/NZS 1716, Respiratory Protective Devices, in order to make any necessary changes for individual circumstances. Eye and Face Protection General use: Not required if used as intended. However avoid product contacting eyes. Industrial use: Safety glasses with side shields, chemical goggles or full-face shield as appropriate should be used. Final choice of appropriate eye/face protection will vary according to individual circumstances. Eye protection devices should conform to relevant regulations. Eye protection should conform with Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 1337 (series) - Eye Protectors for Industrial Applications. Hand Protection General use: Not required if used as intended. However avoid product contacting skin. Industrial use: Wear gloves of impervious material for repeated contact. Final choice of appropriate gloves will vary according to individual circumstances i.e. methods of handling or according to risk assessments undertaken. Occupational protective gloves should conform to relevant regulations. Reference should be made to AS/NZS 2161.1: Occupational protective gloves - Selection, use and maintenance. Thermal Hazards General use: No further relevant information available. Industrial use: No further relevant information available. Body Protection General use: not required if used as intended. Industrial use: Suitable protective workwear, e.g. cotton overalls buttoned at neck and wrist is recommended. Chemical resistant apron is recommended where large quantities are handled.
