Product is combustible. Use self-contained breathing
apparatus and full bunker gear in fire areas. Keep
containers cool with water fog to minimize swelling
taking care not to spread flames with water used for
cooling.
Vapors are heavier that air and may travel along the
ground or be moved by ventilation and ignited by
heater, pilot lights, or other ignition sources at
locations distant from material handling point. Never
use welding or cutting torch on or near drum (even
empty) because product (even residue) can ignite
explosively. All five-gallon pails and larger metal
containers including tank cars and tank trucks should
be grounded and/or bonded when material is
transferred.
