5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing Media
Carbon dioxide, foam, dry chemical.
Basic Fire Fighting Procedures
Full protective equipment including self-contained breathing apparatus should be used. Water spray may be ineffective. If
water is used, fog nozzles are preferable. Water may be used to cool closed containers to prevent pressure build-up and
possible autoignation or explosion when exposed to extreme heat.
Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards
Keep container tightly closed. Avoid heat, open flames, static electricity, electrical equipment and sparks. Closed
containers may explode when exposed to extreme heat. Application to hot surfaces requires special precautions.
