Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media : Foam. Dry extinguishing powder. Carbon dioxide. Atomized water. Sand.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

Fire hazard : In case of fire may be liberated: Carbon monoxide . Nitrogen oxides (NOx).

Advice for firefighters:

Firefighting instructions : Evacuate area. Eliminate all ignition sources if safe to do so. Fight fire remotely due to the risk of explosion. Use water spray or fog for cooling exposed containers. Prevent fire fighting water from entering the environment.
Protection during firefighting : Do not attempt to take action without suitable protective equipment.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
General measures : Wear appropriate organic amines mask. Because the place that it shed is easy to be slippery, be careful. Refer to section Exposure controls/personal protection.

For non-emergency personnel: No additional information available
For emergency responders: No additional information available

Environmental precautions:
Do not allow to enter into surface water or drains. Prevent spread over a wide area (e.g. by containment or oil barriers). Do not allow to enter into surface water or drains. Prevent entry to sewers and public waters.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
Methods for cleaning up : Small quantities of liquid spill: take up in non-combustible absorbent material and shovel into container for disposal. This material and its container must be disposed of in a safe way, and as per local legislation.
