Special Hazards:The risk of dangerous polymerization when heated in a container. Polymerization at risk of an explosion can occur.
Fire procedures

:Move product from fire area or cool containers with water to avoid pressure rise due to heat.Products or parts which can burn water soluble. Water used to extinguish the fire must be disposed of in accordance with applicable regulations.
In case of fire in enclosed places, restabilisasi system should be used if the storage temperature reaches 45 o C. Evakuasikan area from people who are not interested. Evakuasikan bearda people in higher areas if the temperature in the storage container reaches 60 o C.
Special protective equipment for firefighters:At the time of extinguishing fires, use full protective clothing with breathing equipment such as self-contained breathing apparatus operated in positive pressure.

VII. Dealing With The leakage

Self protection:Wear full protective clothing including respiratory protection equipment.
Environmental Protection:Do not dispose of into drains or wells without a permit from the authorities. Collect contaminated water or waste water for fire suppression.
Methods for cleaning:For small leaks
Neutralize with lime (chalk). For residues: taken with an appropriate absorbent material. Dispose of absorbent material in accordance with applicable regulations. Clean floors and contaminated objects with water and detergent, follow applicable environmental regulations.
For large leaks
Pump products. Absorption with an appropriate absorbent material (eg, acid binder). Dispose of absorbent material in accordance with applicable regulations. Clean floors and contaminated objects with water and detergent, follow applicable environmental regulations.

VIII. Handling AND STORAGE

Handling:Handle this material in accordance with good industry practices and safety practices.This material should only be handled by officers who had been trained. Make sure there is good ventilation in the storage area and workspace. When complete, move or mengosogkan container, adequate local exhaust required.
Protect contents from light effects. Protect from direct sunlight. Do not open a container of warm or swollen. Keep the people to a safe place and notify the fire department. Make sure there are inhibitor and dissolved oxygen levels are sufficient.
Because there is the possibility of separation of the stabilizer, this product should not be thawed or taken part. Make sure that no terkristal product in the container before use.Get information from the supplier / manufacturer before Part of dissolving or crystallize.Threshold temperature of the container shall not exceed the limits specified when the melt temperature of these products or guard remains at moderate temperatures.
Protection from fire and explosion hazards:
Bumikan all transfers of equipment, containers and all parts are conductive to prevent static electricity. Vapors may form mixtures with air that can be lit. Avoid all sources of ignition: heat, sparks, flames. Containers should be refrigerated to prevent thermal polymerization. If exposed to fire, cool containers with water spray.
