Auto-Ignition Temperature: 480°C (896°F) Flash Points: Not available. Flammable Limits: Not available. Products of Combustion: Not available. Fire Hazards in Presence of Various Substances: Slightly flammable to flammable in presence of open flames and sparks, of heat, of oxidizing materials, of acids, of alkalis, of moisture. Explosion Hazards in Presence of Various Substances: Risks of explosion of the product in presence of mechanical impact: Not available. Risks of
explosion of the product in presence of static discharge: Not available.
Fire Fighting Media and Instructions: Flammable solid. SMALL FIRE: Use DRY chemical powder. LARGE FIRE: Use water spray or fog. Cool
containing vessels with water jet in order to prevent pressure build-up, auto-ignition or explosion.
Special Remarks on Fire Hazards: Zinc + NaOH causes ignition. Oxidation of zinc by potassium proceeds with incandescence. Residues from zinc
dust /acetic acid reduction operations may ignite after long delay if discarded into waste bins with paper. Incandescent reaction when Zinc and Arsenic or Tel urium, or Selenium are combined. When hydrazine mononitrate is heated in contact with zinc, a flaming decomposition occurs at temperatures a
Contact with acids and alkali hydroxides (sodium hydroxide, postasium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, etc.) results in evolution of hydrogen with sufficient heat of reaction to ignite the hydrogen gas.
Zinc foil ignites if traces of moisture are present.
It is water reactive and produces flammable gases on contact with water. It may ignite on contact with water or moist air.
Special Remarks on Explosion Hazards: Not available. Section 6: Accidental Release Measures Small Spill: Use appropriate tools to put the spil ed solid in a convenient waste disposal container. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and dispose of according to local and regional authority requirements. Large Spill: Flammable solid that, in contact with water, emits flammable gases. Stop leak if without risk. Do not get water inside container. Do not touch spil ed material. Cover with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible material. Prevent entry into sewers, basements or confined areas; dike if
needed. Eliminate all ignition sources. Call for assistance on disposal. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and allow evacuating through the sanitary system.
Section 7: Handling and Storage Precautions: Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Ground all equipment containing material. Do not breathe dust. Keep away from incompatibles such as oxidizing agents, acids, alkalis, moisture. Storage: Keep container tightly closed. Keep container in a cool, wel -ventilated area. Keep from any possible contact with water. Do not allow water to get into container because of violent reaction. Section 8: Exposure Controls / Personal Protection Engineering Controls: Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to keep airborne levels below recommended
exposure limits. If user operations generate dust, fume or mist, use ventilation to keep exposure to airborne contaminants below the exposure limit.
Personal Protection: Safety glasses. Lab coat. Dust respirator. Be sure to use an approved/certified respirator or equivalent. Gloves. Personal Protection in Case of a Large Spill: Splash goggles. Ful suit. Dust respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self contained breathing apparatus should
be used to avoid inhalation of the product. Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist BEFORE handling this product.
