Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media: Alcohol-resistant foam. Dry chemical. Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local
circumstances and the surrounding environment.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: High volume water jet.
Specific hazards during firefighting: Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.
Special protective equipment for firefighters: In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
Further information: Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

Accidental release measures
Personal precautions: Use personal protective equipment. Ensure adequate ventilation.
Environmental precautions: Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up: Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder,
sawdust). Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.

Handling and storage
Advice on safe handling: Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Dispose of rinse water in accordance with local and national regulations. Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion: Take necessary action to avoid static electricity discharge. Product will burn under fire conditions.
Requirements for storage areas and containers: Protect against light. Protect from humidity. Keep container tightly closed and dry. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.
Storage temperature: <25 °C.
