Section 5 - Firefighting Measures
Suitable Extinguishing Media Use carbon dioxide, dry chemical, foam, water mist or water spray.
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media Not available
Hazards from Combustion Products Under fire conditions this product may emit toxic and/or irritating fumes and gases including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, phosphorus oxides (PxOy), nitrogen oxides (NOx).
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. Minimise use of water to prevent environmental contamination.
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. SMALL QUANTITIES: Flush spill area with water. LARGE QUANTITIES: Absorb in earth, sand or absorbent material. Dig up heavily contaminated soil.
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. Partial crystallization may occur on prolonged storage below the minimum storage temperature. If frozen, place in warm room and shake frequently to put back into solution.
Storage Temperatures Minimum storage temperature: -15 °C Maximum storage temperature: 50 °C
Recommended Materials Stainless steel, fibreglass, plastic, glass lining. Keep in original packaging.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls and Personal Protection
Occupational exposure limit values No exposure standards have been established for this material by Safe Work, Australia. However, over-exposure to some chemicals may result in enhancement of pre-existing adverse medical conditions and/or allergic reactions and should be kept to the least possible levels.
Biological Monitoring No biological limits allocated.
Control Banding Not available
Engineering Controls Use with good general ventilation. If mists or vapours are produced, local exhaust ventilation should be used.
Respiratory Protection 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 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 should conform with Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 1337 (series) - Eye Protectors for Industrial Applications.
Hand Protection Wear gloves of impervious material. 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 No further relevant information available.
Body Protection Suitable protective work wear, e.g. cotton overalls buttoned at neck and wrist is recommended. Chemical resistant apron is recommended where large quantities are handled.
