Fire-fighting measures

- Suitable extinguishing media: Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.

- Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture: Carbon oxides, Oxides of phosphorus.

- Advice for firefighters: Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary. Avoid skin contact by maintaining a safe distance or wearing suitable protective clothing.

Accidental release measures

- Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Use personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.

- Environmental precautions: Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not discharge into the subsoil/soil. Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater.

- Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up: Soak up with inert absorbent material and dispose of as hazardous waste. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

Handling and storage

- Precautions for safe handling: Avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.

- Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in cool place. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.

Respiratory protection: Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a Filter A-(P3).

- General safety and hygiene measures: Take off immediately all contaminated clothing.

Stability and reactivity

- Reactivity: On intense heating, explosive mixtures with air are possible.

- Possibility of dangerous reactions: Exothermic reaction with Oxidizing agents, acids. Development of hazardous gases or vapors with Hydrides, strong reducing agents

- Conditions to avoid: Strong heating

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods: Incinerate in suitable incineration plant, observing local authority regulations.
