Fire-fighting measures

Non-flammable.

5.1. Extinguishing media

Suitable methods of extinction

In the event of a fire, use :

- carbon dioxide (CO2)

- nitrogen oxide (NO)

- nitrogen dioxide (NO2)

- hydrogen fluoride (HF)

5.3. Advice for firefighters

Due to the toxicity of the gas emitted on thermal decomposition of the products, fire-fighting personnel are to be equipped with autonomous

insulating breathing apparatus.

Accidental release measures

6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Exposure controls / personal protection

8.1. Control parameters

In the absence of specific information, this substance is considered internally as:

OEB (occupational exposure band) : 3

OEL (occupational exposure limit) : 10-100 microgramme/m³ (8h)

8.2. Exposure controls

Personal protection measures, such as personal protective equipment

Pictogram(s) indicating the obligation of wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) :

Use personal protective equipment that is clean and has been properly maintained.

Store personal protective equipment in a clean place, away from the work area.

Never eat, drink or smoke during use. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-using. Ensure that there is adequate ventilation,

especially in confined areas.
