Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or foam for small fires
Specific Hazards: Combustion can generate hazardous gases including nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide
Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear
Other Advice: Avoid runoff into the environment; Use standard precautions for fires involving fine organic powders which could form combustible dust-air mixtures
Personal Precautions: Use government-approved respirators and chemical resistant gloves; Isolate spill area, restrict access
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into drains, water courses, or soil; Notify authorities in case of large spills
Methods for Cleanup: Carefully sweep up and place in suitable, labeled container for disposal; Clean spill area with water and detergent after material removal; Avoid raising dust
Precautions for Safe Handling: Handle with appropriate industrial hygiene practices; Minimize dust, avoid inhalation, accidental ingestion, and contact with skin or eyes
Conditions for Safe Storage: Store in tightly closed container, cool, dry, and well-ventilated area; Protect from moisture, heat, and direct sunlight
Incompatibilities: Keep separate from strong oxidizing agents, acids, or bases; Avoid proximity to solvents capable of degrading compound
Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation, fume hood, or process enclosure to minimize airborne particles
Personal Protective Equipment: Chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile recommended), lab coat, safety goggles or face shield; In dusty conditions, use approved respirators

Decomposition Products: On thermal decomposition produces hazardous gases, including oxides of carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur
Polymerization: No reported hazard of hazardous polymerization
Acute Toxicity: Acute oral LD50 in rats estimated greater than 2000 mg/kg; Low risk of acute poisoning with standard handling
Skin Corrosion/Irritation: May cause slight irritation on prolonged exposure; No severe effects described in literature
Eye Effects: Moderate irritant to eyes
Chronic Exposure: Prolonged or repeated exposure may affect liver or cause allergic responses in susceptible individuals; Use of PPE reduces risks
Carcinogenicity/Mutagenicity: Not classified as human carcinogen; Long-term animal studies have not demonstrated significant risk at pharmaceutical doses
Sensitization: May cause allergic reactions on repeated contact in some individuals
Aquatic Toxicity: Ecotoxic substance, harmful to aquatic organisms; Long persistence and potential for accumulation, particularly in sediments
Mobility: Low solubility in water reduces mobility; Tends to remain in solid state or adsorb onto sediments
Degradability: Biodegradation is slow; Stable under most environmental conditions
Bioaccumulation: High potential due to hydrophobicity, warranting careful containment and disposal practices
