Protection During Firefighting: Do not enter fire area without proper protective equipment, including respiratory protection.Wear NIOSH-approved Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus with a full face piece operated in a positive pressure demand mode with full body protective clothing when fighting fires.
Firefighting Instructions: Use dry chemical, foam, or carbon dioxide (CO2). Do not breathe fumes from fire or vapors from decomposition.Do NOT fight fire when fire reaches containers. Evacuate area. Fight fire remotely due to the risk of explosion.Shut off all sources of ignition. Use water spray or fog for cooling exposed containers.

SECTION 6: Accidental release measures
6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
General Measures: Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing.Do not breathe vapors, spray, mist, gas. Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames, and other ignition sources.No smoking.
For Non-Emergency Personnel Protective Equipment: Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).Emergency Procedures: Evacuate unnecessary personnel. Stop leak if safe to do so.
For Emergency Personnel Protective Equipment: Equip cleanup crew with proper protection.Emergency Procedure: Eliminate ignition sources first, then ventilate the area. Evacuate unnecessary personnel, isolate, and ventilate area.Upon arrival at the scene, a first responder is expected to recognize the presence of dangerous goods, protect oneself and the public, secure the area, and call for the assistance of trained personnel as soon as conditions permit.
6.2 Environmental precautions
Prevent entry to sewers and public waters. Avoid release to the environment.
6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
For Containment: Ventilate the area.Contain any spills with dikes or absorbents to prevent further migration and entry into sewers or streams.As an immediate precautionary measure, isolate spill or leak area in all directions.
Methods for Cleaning Up: Clean up spills immediately and dispose of waste safely. Eliminate all ignition sources. Ventilate area.Stop the ignition source of the release, if safe to do so.Consider the use of water spray to disperse vapors. Isolate the area until gas has dispersed.Ventilate and gas test area before entering. Take up liquid spill into absorbent material.Transfer spilled material to a suitable container for disposal. Contact competent authorities after a spill.
Waste Disposal: Dispose of in accordance with local, regional, national, and international regulations. Containers may be hazardous when empty.Do not flame cut, braze, or weld. Product should be fully characterized prior to disposal (40 CFR 261).
