Fire-fighting measures

- Extinguishing media: Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment

- Specific hazards during firefighting: Exposure to decomposition products may be hazardous to health

- Hazardous combustion products: Chloride compounds, metal oxides

- Advice for firefighters: In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Use personal protective equipment.

- Further information: Use a water spray to cool fully closed containers. Prevent fire extinguishing water from contaminating surface water or the ground water system.
