Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.

Unsuitable media

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

Specific hazards

Not combustible. Fire may cause evolution of: Hydrogen chloride gas. Has a fire-promoting effect due to release of oxygen. Ambient fire may liberate hazardous vapours.

Instructions

Suppress (knock down) gases/vapours/mists with a water spray jet.

Firefighter Protection

In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Evacuate the danger area, observe emergency procedures, consult an expert.

Environmental

Do not let product enter drains.

Cleanup methods

Cover drains. Collect, bind, and pump off spills. Observe possible material restrictions (see sections 7 and 10). Take up dry. Dispose of properly. Clean up affected area.

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

For precautions see section 2 GHS label elements

Storage

Tightly closed. Separately or together with other oxidising substances only and away from sources of ignition and heat. Because of their oxidation potential these products can raise the burning rate of combustible substances substantially or ignite combustible substances on contact with them.

Hygiene

Change contaminated clothing. Preventive skin protection recommended. Wash hands after working with substance.

Fire prevention

Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition.
