if foam has to be avoided.

Hazardous decomposition / combustion products

Material is not classified as flammable. However, if involved in a fire, it will feed the fire and give off toxic fumes of

sulphur dioxide/trioxide and carbon monoxide/dioxide.

Protective equipment

Use self-contained breathing apparatus.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions

Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Environmental precautions

Do not allow to escape into sewage system or watercourses.
