Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, dry powder, foam, or carbon dioxide
Unsuitable Media: Direct water jets can disperse powder
Hazardous Combustion Products: Emits sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide
Special Firefighter Protection: Firefighters need self-contained breathing apparatus, wear full protective clothing
Special Procedures: Avoid breathing combustion fumes, contain runoff to prevent environmental contamination, cool exposed containers with water spray to prevent overheating.
Personal Precautions: Avoid dust generation, ventilate area, evacuate unnecessary personnel, wear suitable protective equipment including gloves and goggles
Environmental Precautions: Prevent release into watercourses, drains or soil, notify relevant authorities if spill contaminates environment
Spill Clean-Up Methods: Collect spilled material using inert absorbent such as sand, store in a sealed container for disposal, clean area with water and detergent, dispose as hazardous waste.
Handling: Use with adequate ventilation, avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing, prevent formation of dust, wash hands after handling, do not eat or drink during use
Storage: Store tightly closed in original container, in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from incompatible substances like strong acids and bases, keep away from food and drink, label container properly
Incompatibilities: Strong oxidizers, reducing agents, acids
Engineering Controls: Use chemical fume hood or local exhaust, safety shower and eyewash present in area
Exposure Limits: No specific occupational exposure limits established
Personal Protection: Wear chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile or PVC), safety goggles or face shield, protective lab coat, use dust mask or respirator in poorly ventilated areas
Hygiene Measures: Avoid touching eyes or skin during handling, wash thoroughly after work, change contaminated clothes, do not eat, drink, or smoke in work area
