Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam
Special Hazards: Combustion generates hazardous fumes including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides
Protective Equipment: Firefighters wear full protective equipment with self-contained breathing apparatus
Advice for Firefighters: Keep upwind. Avoid inhalation of toxic decomposition products. Cool exposed fire containers with water spray.
Personal Precautions: Wear proper protective gloves, goggles, and lab coat. Avoid breathing dust.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent spills from entering drains, watercourses, or soil
Methods for Containment: Scoop up and place in suitable container for disposal. Use non-sparking tools.
Cleanup Procedures: Ventilate area. Clean remaining material with damp towel and detergent. Dispose as hazardous waste.
Handling: Work with chemical in well-ventilated space, minimize dust generation. Wash hands thoroughly before breaks and after handling.
Storage Conditions: Store in tightly sealed container, away from light, heat sources, ignition sources, and incompatible materials
Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizers, acids, and bases
Special Storage: Keep in a dry environment below 25°C. Ensure area has spill containment materials available.
Exposure Limits: No established occupational exposure limit, limit exposure through engineering controls
Engineering Controls: Work inside chemical fume hood where feasible. Use local exhaust ventilation to prevent airborne exposure.
Personal Protection: Wear chemical splash goggles, lab coat, and suitable gloves (nitrile or neoprene). Use NIOSH-approved respirator if ventilation is insufficient or dust is generated.
Hygiene Measures: Avoid eating or drinking while handling; wash exposed skin thoroughly after use.
