Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Water, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Foam, Dry powder

Unsuitable media

For this substance/mixture no limitations of extinguishing agents are given.

Specific hazards

Combustible. Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Forms explosive mixtures with air at elevated temperatures. Development of hazardous combustion gases or vapours possible in the event of fire.

Instructions

Suppress (knock down) gases/vapours/mists with a water spray jet. Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray.

Firefighter Protection

Stay in danger area only with self-contained breathing apparatus. Prevent skin contact by keeping a safe distance or by wearing suitable protective clothing.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Do not breathe vapours, aerosols. Avoid substance contact. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate the danger area, observe emergency procedures, consult an expert.

Environmental

Do not empty into drains. Risk of explosion.

Cleanup methods

Take up with liquid-absorbent and neutralising material (e.g. Chemizorb® H⁺, Merck Art. No. 101595). Dispose of properly. Clean up affected area.

Materials: liquid-absorbent and neutralising material (e.g. Chemizorb® H⁺, Merck Art. No. 101595)
