Specific hazards arising Explosion risk in case of fire. Fight fire remotely due to the risk of explosion.
from the chemical: Take care as it may decompose upon combustion or in high temperatures to
generate poisonous fume.
Precautions for firefighters: Fire-extinguishing work is done from the windward and the suitable fire-extinguishing
method according to the surrounding situation is used. Uninvolved persons should
evacuate to a safe place. In case of fire in the surroundings: Keep containers cool by
spraying with water. Eliminate all ignition sources if safe to do so.
Special protective When extinguishing fire, be sure to wear personal protective equipment.
