Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:

foam, carbon dioxide, dry powder, water spray.

Unsuitable extinguishing media:

Full water jet

In case of fires, hazardous combustion gases are formed:

- carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide

- Nitrogen oxides (NOx)

- Sulphur oxides

Advice for fire fighters:

Do not inhale explosion and/or combustion gases

Use self-contained breathing apparatus and wear protective suit

Fire residues and contaminated firefighting water must be disposed of in accordance with the local regulations.

Cool endangered containers with water spray jet.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:

High risk of slipping due to leakage/spillage of product.

Ensure adequate ventilation.

Use personal protective equipment.

Keep away sources of ignition.

Environmental precautions:

Do not allow to enter drains or waterways

Do not discharge into the subsoil/soil.

Methods and materials for containment:

Pick up with absorbent material (e.g. general-purpose binder).

Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with the regulations.
