Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray, dry powder, CO2, alcohol-resistant foam.
Product arising from burning: No specified dangerous decomposition products are known.
Protective equipment: Wear suitable protective clothing.
Further information:
Pay attention to the chemical characteristics. Cool closed
containers exposed to fire with water spray.
Accidental release measures
Emergency measures in case of spillage: General protective measures:
No naked lights. No smoking. Stop the engine. Mark roads and
warn other road users. Use flame-proof electric material;
necessary from 30'C on.
Personal protective measures:
Eye-wash bottle with clean water. Goggles giving complete
protection to the eyes. solvent-resistant boots. Solvent-
resistant gloves. Suitable respiratory protective device.
Respiratory protection:
Breathing equipment A-filter.
Environmental precautions:
Avoid subsoil penetration. Do not flush into surface water
or sanitory sewer system.
Methods for cleaning up:
If spill occurs, remove all sources of ignition, apply a
suitable absorbent material and collect into an impervious
waste container. Collect the product in a metal vessel. Wash
away residues with plenty of water. Carry away the product
to a safe site. Collect spilled product in another vessel
and carry off as chemical waste to combustion.
Additional advice:
Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic
charge.
Handling and storage
Handling: Advice on safe handling:
Before destillation check on presence of peroxides and if
necessary neutralize.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion:
Keep away from heat or open flame. Use flame-proof electric
material; necessary from 30'C on. Take precautionary measur
against static charges.
Dust explosion class: not applicable
Storage: Requirements for storage areas and containers:
Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from heat and
sources of ignition.
Advice on common storage:
Store away from acids and oxidizing agents (a.o.
sodiumhypochlorite). Store away from strong alkalis.
Packaging of the substance and or preparation: steel drum-non-removable-head, inliner 200l
