Suitable Extinguishing Media: Alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide, water spray (fog)
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Water jet (may spread fire)
Specific Hazards: Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air; emits irritating or toxic fumes under fire conditions (nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide)
Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical protective clothing
Special Procedures: Use water spray to cool unopened containers. Collect contaminated firefighting water separately.
Personal Precautions: Evacuate unnecessary personnel, ventilate area, wear chemical resistant gloves, goggles, and protective clothing
Environmental Precautions: Prevent chemical from entering drains, watercourses, or soil. Inform local authorities if large spill occurs.
Methods for Cleanup: Absorb with inert material (sand, earth), collect in appropriate chemical waste container. Clean spill area thoroughly with water and detergent after removal.
Containment: Dike area to prevent spill spreading, ensure proper disposal via licensed contractor.
Safe Handling: Handle in well-ventilated area. Avoid inhalation of vapors, contact with skin and eyes. Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces, sparks. Use only non-sparking tools.
Hygiene Practices: Wash thoroughly after use; remove contaminated clothing before entering eating or rest areas.
Storage Conditions: Store in tightly sealed containers away from heat sources, direct sunlight, and incompatible substances (acids, strong oxidizers). Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated area.
Packaging Materials: Use original container or chemical-resistant containers; label containers clearly.
Incompatibilities: Strong acids, oxidizers, halogens
Occupational Exposure Limits: No OSHA or ACGIH established limits for Dipentylamine
Engineering Controls: Use appropriate exhaust ventilation, process enclosures, or other engineering controls to avoid exposure.
Respiratory Protection: Use an approved respirator if ventilation is inadequate.
Eye Protection: Chemical safety goggles or face shield
Hand Protection: Impermeable gloves (such as nitrile or butyl rubber)
