MEDIA
SPECIAL Respiratory equipment should be worn to avoid inhalation of concentrated
FIREFIGHTING vapors. Water should not be used except as fog to keep nearby containers
PROCEDURES cool.
Handle as flammable liquid. Vapors form an explosive mixture in air between the upper and lower
UNUSUAL FIRE
explosive limits. These vapors can be ignited by many sources such as pilot lights, open flames,
AND EXPLOSION electrical motors and switches. When this material burns toxic degradation products can be produced.
HAZARDS Firefighters should use a self contained air supply.
