Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media:

Suitable extinguishing media: Dry chemical, foam, water spray, carbon dioxide.

Unsuitable extinguishing media: Not available.

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture:

No specific fire or explosion hazard. May be combustible at high temperature.

These products are toxic carbon oxides (CO, CO2), nitrogen oxides (NO, NO2),

sulfur oxides (SOx).

Special fire fighting methods and Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self contained special protective actions for fire-fighters:

breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure

mode.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:

For non-emergency personnel: No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Shut off all ignition sources. No flares, smoking or flames in hazard area. Avoid breathing dust. Put on appropriate personal protective equipment.

For emergency responders: Wear an appropriate NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator if dust is generated.

Environmental Precautions: Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).

Methods for Containment and Cleaning up:

Clean up spills immediately. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide ventilation.

Vacuum or sweep up material and place into suitable disposal container.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling:Protective measures: Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Use with adequate ventilation. Wash clothing before reuse. Avoid breathing dust.
