Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.
For this substance/mixture no limitations of extinguishing agents are given.
Ammonia solution itself is not flammable, but can form an ignitable ammonia/air-mixture by outgassing. Ambient fire may liberate hazardous vapours.
Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray. Suppress (knock down) gases/vapours/mists with a water spray jet.
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.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Do not breathe vapours, aerosols. Avoid substance contact. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate the danger area, observe emergency procedures, consult an expert.
Do not empty into drains.
Take up with liquid-absorbent and neutralising material (e.g. Chemizorb® OH⁻, Merck Art. No. 101596).
Materials: liquid-absorbent and neutralising material (e.g. Chemizorb® OH⁻, Merck Art. No. 101596)

Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Technical measures and appropriate working operations should be given priority over the use of personal protective equipment. See section 7.1.
full contact: - Glove material: butyl-rubber - Glove thickness: 0,7 mm - Break through time: > 480 min splash contact: - Glove material: Nitrile rubber - Glove thickness: 0,40 mm - Break through time: > 240 min The protective gloves to be used must comply with the specifications of EC Directive 89/686/EEC and the related standard EN374, for example KCL 898 Butoject® (full contact), KCL 730 Camatril® -Velours (splash contact). The breakthrough times stated above were determined by KCL in laboratory tests acc. to EN374 with samples of the recommended glove types. This recommendation applies only to the product stated in the safety data sheet <(>, <)> supplied by us and for the designated use. When dissolving in or mixing with other substances and under conditions deviating from those stated in EN374 please contact the supplier of CE-approved gloves (e.g. KCL GmbH, D-36124 Eichenzell, Internet: www.kcl.de).
Tightly fitting safety goggles
required when vapours/aerosols are generated. Recommended Filter type: Filter K (acc. to DIN 3181) for NH₃ The entrepreneur has to ensure that maintenance, cleaning and testing of respiratory protective devices are carried out according to the instructions of the producer. These measures have to be properly documented.
protective clothing
Do not empty into drains.
