5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
5.1. Extinguishing Media and Procedure Water spray, foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide or any class B
extinguishing agent.
Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Approach fire
from upwind to avoid hazardous vapors and toxic decomposition
products. Fight fire from protected location or maximum possible
distance. Avoid heavy hose streams. Dike area to prevent water
runoff. Firemen should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and
protective clothing.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
6.1. Personal Protection .......................... Observe all protection and safety precautions when cleaning up
spills, see 8.
6.2. Steps to Be Taken in Case of Spill Small liquid spills on the floor or other impervious surface, should
be soaked up with towels or other absorbent material and discarded
in the trash. Clean the spill area with soap and water and rinse the
area thoroughly.
Large liquid spills on the floor or other impervious surface should
be contained or diked and then absorbed with attapulgite, bentonite
or other absorbent clays. Collect the contaminated absorbent, place
in a metal drum and dispose of in accordance with the instructions
provided under Disposal (see 13). Thoroughly scrub floor or other
impervious surface with a strong industrial detergent and rinse with
water.
Large spills that soak into the ground should be dug up, placed in
metal drums and disposed of in accordance with instructions
provided under Disposal (see 13). Contact appropriate state agency
when considering a land spreading disposal option.
Leaking containers should be separated from non-leakers and either
the container or its contents transferred to a drum or other non-
leaking container and disposed of in accordance with instructions
provided under Disposal (see 13). Any recovered spill
