Use water to dilute spills and to flush them away from sources of ignition. Firefighting Procedures: Do not flush down sewers or other drainage systems. Each exposed firefighter must wear a NIOSH-approved positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus with full-face mask and full protective clothing. Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Dangerous when exposed to heat or flame.

Will form flammable or explosive mixtures with air at room temperature. Vapor or gas may spread to distant ignition sources and flash back. Vapors or gas may accumulate in low areas. Runoff to sewer may cause fire or explosion hazard. Containers may explode in heat of fire. Vapors may concentrate in confined areas. Liquid will float and may reignite on the surface of water. Combustion Products: Irritating or toxic substances may be emitted upon thermal decomposition. Thermal decomposition products may include oxides of carbon and nitrogen.

In which SDS section would you be directed not to flush a chemical down drainage systems? Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind; keep out of low areas. Also see Section 8. Vapor protective clothing should be worn for spills and leaks. Shut off ignition sources; no flares, smoking or flames in hazard area. Small spills: Take up with sand or other noncombustible absorbent material and place into containers for later disposal.

Large spills: Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal. Do not accidentally flush to sewer or waterways. Prevent release to the environment if possible. Handling - Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing.

Do not breathe vapors or mists. Keep container closed. Use only with adequate ventilation. Use good personal hygiene practices. Wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and clean before re-use. Destroy contaminated belts and shoes and other items that cannot be decontaminated. Keep away from heat and flame. Keep operating temperatures below ignition temperatures at all times. Use non-sparking tools. Storage - Store in tightly closed containers in cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat, sources of ignition and incompatibles.

Ground lines and equipment used during transfer to reduce the possibility of static spark-initiated fire or explosion. Store at ambient or lower temperature. Store out of direct sunlight. Keep containers tightly closed and upright when not in use.

Protect against physical damage. Empty containers may contain toxic, flammable and explosive residue or vapors. Do not cut, grind, drill, or weld on or near containers unless precautions are taken against these hazards. Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation may be necessary to control air contaminants to their exposure limits.

The use of local ventilation is recommended to control emissions near the source. Provide mechanical ventilation for confined spaces.

Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment. Eye Protection: Wear chemical safety goggles and face shield. Have eye-wash stations available where eye contact can occur. Skin Protection: Avoid skin contact. Wear gloves impervious to conditions of use. Additional protection may be necessary to prevent skin contact including use of apron, face shield, boots or full body protection.

A safety shower should be located in the work area. Recommended protective materials include: Butyl rubber and, for limited contact, Teflon. For higher concentrations, unknown concentrations and for oxygen deficient atmospheres, use a NIOSH approved air-supplied respirator. Engineering controls are the preferred means for controlling chemical exposures. Respiratory protection may be needed for non-routine or emergency situations. Ad Hoc report creation. Specialized reporting and training of other Administrators.

Acute Exposure An intense exposure over a relatively short period of time. Asphyxiant A chemical gas or vapor that can cause death or unconsciousness by suffocation. Carcinogen A substance or physical agent that may cause cancer in humans or animals. Chronic Exposure A prolonged exposure occurring over days, weeks or years. Combustible Liquid Liquids having a flash point at or above degrees. Not as ignitable as Flammables.
