Solid water stream
Containers may explode if incinerated. Undamaged aerosols are unlikely to be the cause of fire, but they can be ignited in a fire situation and contribute fuel to a fire. Aerosols containing flammable materials may produce a fierce fire with toxic gases evolved such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
Firefighter Protection
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Evacuate area. Ensure adequate air ventilation. Wear respiratory protection. Eliminate all sources of ignition.
Prevent leakage or further spillage if safe to do so. Prevent material from entering drains or water courses. Advise authorities if material has entered water course of sewer or has contaminated soil or vegetation.
Contain and absorb using earth, sand or other inert material. Transfer to suitable containers for recovery or disposal according to local regulations then flush area with plenty of water.
