5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Closed containers exposed to heat from fire may build pressure and explode.
Hazardous Decomposition or By-Products
Substance Condition
Carbon monoxide During Combustion
Carbon dioxide During Combustion
Oxides of Nitrogen During Combustion
5.3. Special protective actions for fire-fighters
Water may not effectively extinguish fire; however, it should be used to keep fire-exposed containers and surfaces cool and
prevent explosive rupture. Wear full protective clothing, including helmet, self-contained, positive pressure or pressure
demand breathing apparatus, bunker coat and pants, bands around arms, waist and legs, face mask, and protective covering
for exposed areas of the head.
SECTION 6: Accidental release measures
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Evacuate area. Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. Use only non-sparking tools.
Ventilate the area with fresh air. For large spill, or spills in confined spaces, provide mechanical ventilation to disperse or
exhaust vapors, in accordance with good industrial hygiene practice. Warning! A motor could be an ignition source and
could cause flammable gases or vapors in the spill area to burn or explode. Refer to other sections of this SDS for
information regarding physical and health hazards, respiratory protection, ventilation, and personal protective equipment.
6.2. Environmental precautions
Avoid release to the environment. For larger spills, cover drains and build dikes to prevent entry into sewer systems or
bodies of water.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Contain spill. Working from around the edges of the spill inward, cover with bentonite, vermiculite, or commercially
__________________________________________________________________________________________

3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Instant Adhesive CA40H Clear 05/21/18
available inorganic absorbent material. Mix in sufficient absorbent until it appears dry. Remember, adding an absorbent
material does not remove a physical, health, or environmental hazard. Collect as much of the spilled material as possible
using non-sparking tools. Place in a closed container approved for transportation by appropriate authorities. Clean up
residue with an appropriate solvent selected by a qualified and authorized person. Ventilate the area with fresh air. Read and
follow safety precautions on the solvent label and SDS. Seal the container. Dispose of collected material as soon as
possible in accordance with applicable local/regional/national/international regulations.
SECTION 7: Handling and storage

For industrial or professional use only. Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. Avoid
breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not eat, drink or smoke when
using this product. Wash thoroughly after handling. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the
workplace. Avoid release to the environment. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Avoid contact with oxidizing
agents (eg. chlorine, chromic acid etc.)
7.2. Conditions for safe storage including any incompatibilities
Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed. Keep cool. Store away from acids. Store away from
strong bases. Store away from oxidizing agents. Store away from amines.

NFPA Hazard Classification
Health: 2 Flammability: 2 Instability: 1 Special Hazards: None
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) hazard ratings are designed for use by emergency response personnel to address
the hazards that are presented by short-term, acute exposure to a material under conditions of fire, spill, or similar
emergencies. Hazard ratings are primarily based on the inherent physical and toxic properties of the material but also include
the toxic properties of combustion or decomposition products that are known to be generated in significant quantities.
