Foam; Dry Chemical
Special Fire Fighting Procedures:
Wear full body protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus with positive pressure and
full‐face piece

VI. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURE

Steps to be taken in case material is released or spilled:
 Stop flow if possible
 Soak up small spills with clay, sand, or diatomaceous earth
 Dilute spill cautiously with five to six volumes of water and gradually neutralize with sodium bi‐
carbonate, soda ash, or lime
When exposure level is not known, wear NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator or SCBA

Waste disposal method:

Neutralized and dispose in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations

XI. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

Effects of Chronic Exposure
 Substance accumulation, in the human body, is likely and may cause some concern following
repeated or long-term occupational exposure.
 Ample evidence exists that developmental disorders are directly caused by human exposure to
the material.
 Ample evidence from experiments exists that there is a suspicion this material directly reduces
fertility.
 Long-term exposure to high dust concentrations may cause changes in lung function i.e.
pneumoconiosis; caused by particles less than 0.5 micron penetrating and remaining in the
lung.
 Lead, in large amounts, can affect the blood, nervous system, heart, glands, immune system and
digestive system. Anemia may occur.
 Lead can cross the placenta, and cause miscarriage, stillbirths and birth defects. Exposure
before birth can cause mental retardation, behavioral disorders and infant death.
 Exposure to the material for prolonged periods may cause physical defects in the developing
embryo (teratogenesis).

lead result in increased brain damage, coma and death in extreme cases.
 Long term exposure to high dust concentrations may cause changes in lung function i.e.
pneumoconiosis; caused by particles less than 0.5 micron penetrating and remaining in the
lung.
