5.2 EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Ordinary combustible material. Use fire extinguishers with class A extinguishing agents (e.g., water, foam).
5.3 PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Wear full protective equipment (Bunker Gear) and a self-contained breathing apparatus
(SCBA).
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Non-flammable: ordinary combustible material.
Note: See STABILITY AND REACTIVITY (SECTION 10) for hazardous combustion and thermal decomposition
information.
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Accidental Release Measures: Observe precautions from other sections. Call 3M- HELPS line (1-800-364-3577) for more
information on handling and managing the spill. Evacuate unprotected and untrained personnel from hazard area. The spill should be
cleaned up by qualified personnel. Ventilate the area with fresh air. For large spill, or spills in confined spaces, provide mechanical
ventilation to disperse or exhaust vapors, in accordance with good industrial hygiene practice. Warning! A motor could be an ignition
source and could cause flammable gases or vapors in the spill area to burn or explode. Contain spill. Working from around the edges
of the spill inward, cover with bentonite, vermiculite, or commercially available inorganic absorbent material. Mix in sufficient
absorbent until it appears dry. Collect as much of the spilled material as possible. Clean up residue with detergent and water. Place
in a closed container approved for transportation by appropriate authorities. Dispose of collected material as soon as possible.
In the event of a release of this material, the user should determine if the release qualifies as reportable according to
local, state, and federal regulations.

NFPA Hazard Classification
Health: 1 Flammability: 1 Reactivity: 0 Special Hazards: None
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) hazard ratings are designed for use by emergency response personnel to address the hazards that are
presented by short-term, acute exposure to a material under conditions of fire, spill, or similar emergencies. Hazard ratings are primarily based on the
inherent physical and toxic properties of the material but also include the toxic properties of combustion or decomposition products that are known to
be generated in significant quantities.
