2.Fire Fighting Measures
General Information: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. Vapors can travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Will burn if involved in a fire. Flammable liquid and vapor. 
Extinguishing Media: Use foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide. Water may be ineffective because it will not cool material below its flash point. 
3.Handling and Storage
Handling: Use spark-proof tools and explosion proof equipment. Avoid breathing dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. 
Storage: Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a dry area. Flammables-area. Keep refrigerated. (Store below 4°C/39°F.)
