Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if
there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable
training. Move containers from fire area if this can be done without risk. Use water
spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool.
Hazardous thermal
decomposition products
Specific hazards arising
from the chemical
Decomposition products may include the following materials:
carbon dioxide
carbon monoxide
nitrogen oxides
Highly flammable liquid and vapor. In a fire or if heated, a pressure increase will occur
and the container may burst, with the risk of a subsequent explosion. The vapor/gas is
heavier than air and will spread along the ground. Vapors may accumulate in low or
confined areas or travel a considerable distance to a source of ignition and flash back.
Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard.
Use dry chemical,
CO₂,
