Fire Fighters’ PPE: SCBA and structural fire fighter’s uniform
may provide limited protection. Fully-encapsulating, gas-tight
suits should be worn for maximum protection.
Special fire-fighting procedures: Use water to cool exposed
containers. If a leak or spill has ignited, use water spray to
disperse the vapours and to protect men attempting to stop a
leak. Water spray may be used to flush spills away from
exposures. Prevent run off from entering waterways. Minimise
breathing gases, vapour, fumes or decomposition products.
Use supplied-air breathing equipment for enclosed areas.
Unusual fire hazards: None
Hazardous products of combustion: Thermal decomposition in a
large fire may yield carbon dioxide and/or carbon monoxide
and/or hydrocarbons.

spills immediately. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Contain
spill for salvage or absorb in inert absorbent material. Place in a
