Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media - carbon dioxide, foam, powder and water fog/spray
Special fire fighting procedure - Material decomposes at high temperatures, giving off acrid fumes: therefore breathing apparatus should be worn

Accidental release measures
Recover material if possible. Also absorb spilled substance in sand or inert substance and remove to a safe place. Prevent material entering drains with absorbent socks and drain protectors. After absorption and recovery, wash away traces with large amounts of water. Any absorbent material used to mop up a spill to be disposed of in a closed metal container.
Protective equipment to be worn for spill - Chemical splash resistant overalls, wellingtons, chemical resistant PVC gauntlets and
visor

Handling and storage
Use in well ventilated areas. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Open and handle containers with care. Store in original containers. Avoid excessive breathing of vapours. Avoid accumulation of static charge, especially in high mixing systems. Emergency shower and eyewash should be close by. Electrical equipment to be suitable for electrical apparatus group and temperature class of the material (Group IIB Class T3)

Exposure controls / personal protection
Ventilation - no special ventilation unless used in spray form. If a spray form is used, suitable ventilation is required. However engineering controls should be aimed for to prevent the need for ventilation.
Protective equipment for normal operation
Breathing - no protection required
Gloves - protective gloves/gauntlets made of PVC
Eye - wear close fitting goggles or visor when handling, e.g. sampling
Other - wear normal industrial workwear to prevent skin contact

Disposal considerations
Waste product - recycle if possible, but if not, then incinerate
Packaging - Steel drums can be cleaned and re-used if in good condition, or recycle as scrap metal. IBCs can be either cleaned out, shred and landfill, if permitted or clean, granulate and recycle the plastic granules. The IBC cage can be re-used
