SECTION 6 : FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing Media : Any common extinguishing medium can be used.

carbon dioxide(CO2), dry powder, foam, water
Fire fighting instruction : Use heavy protective device against exhaled air when fire fighting in
enclosed rooms. In the event of fire , wear self-contained breathing
apparatus, wear NIOSH/MSHA approved SCBA & FULL protective
equipment (FP N). Comply with "Regulations for fire protection in
plastics processing plant"
Special hazards : Skin burns by molten material have to be treated in hospital.
Unusual Fire And Explosion Hazards : Use water spray to disperse vapor.

Leak and/ Spill : Mechanical pick-up and removal (Danger of Slipping)
MSDS - 3
SECTION 8 : HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling :
Heavy gauges of polyester film can contain sharp edges, proper protective gear, such as
gloves, is recommended. Silicon coated grades of polyester film can create a slip hazard.
walking areas should be kept clear of the film.
Unwinding , winding and passage of polyester film through and over rollers will tend to
generate a strong electrostatic charge on the web. Static discharge devices should be
properly positioned at such points to eliminate the charge and to prevent uncontrolled
discharge from the web.
This is particularly required in potentially explosive atmospheres and to protect personal
from the effect of a static discharge. Certain antistatic grades are available.
Storage : None specified
