5.1 Extinguishing media
Suitable Water, carbon dioxide or halogenated fire-extinguishing agents.
Unsuitable Not available.
5.2 Special hazards arising from the chemical
The product is not classified as flammable.
However, if involved in a fire product will decompose giving hazardous smoke, fumes and gases.
Dust may produce explosive mixture with air.
5.3 Special protective equipment and precautions for fire-fighters
Remove containers from fire or cool them with water spray.
Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.
Prevent water from firefighting from entering water-courses or drainage system.
Accidental release measures
Section 6: Accidental release measures
6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
For large spills, wear full personal protection.
Keep unauthorized personnel from the spillage area.
Ventilate area and avoid creating airborne dust.
Take precautionary measures against static discharge and use non-sparking equipment.
Follow prescribed procedures for responding to large spills and reporting to authorities.
For recommended personal protective equipment, see Section 8.
For disposal considerations, see Section 13.
6.2 Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Prevent product from entering water courses or drainage system.
Clean up spill as soon as possible.
For small quantities, wipe off with cloth or paper.
For large quantities, carefully sweep up or collect using vacuum cleaner.
