Dry chemical, CO2, water spray, or alcohol-resistant foam. Consult with local fire authorities before attempting large scale fire fighting operations.

Do not use straight streams.

Closed containers may explode from heat of a fire. Containers may explode when heated. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard.

Use water spray or fog; do not use straight streams. Dike fire-control water for later disposal; do not scatter the material. CAUTION: All these products have a very low flash point: Use of water spray when fighting fire may be inefficient. Move containers from fire area if you can do it without risk.

Isolate area until gas has dispersed. In case of a spill and/or a leak, always shut off any sources of ignition, ventilate the area, and exercise caution. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Warn personnel to move away. Prevent entry into sewers, basements or confined areas; dike if needed.

Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Water runoff can cause environmental damage. Prevent entry into sewers, basements or confined areas; dike if needed.

Absorb with an inert material and put the spilled material in an appropriate waste disposal container. Use clean non-sparking tools to collect absorbed material.

Materials: inert material
