Specific hazards arising from the
chemical
:
Extremely flammable aerosol. In a fire or if heated, a pressure
increase will occur and the container may burst, with the risk of a
subsequent explosion. Gas may accumulate in low or confined areas
or travel a considerable distance to a source of ignition and flash
back, causing fire or explosion. Bursting aerosol containers may be
propelled from a fire at high speed. Runoff to sewer may create fire
or explosion hazard.
Hazardous thermal
decomposition products
:
Decomposition products may include the following materials:
carbonyl halides
Special protective actions for fire-
fighters
:
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.
Special protective equipment for
fire-fighters
:
Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-
contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece
operated in positive pressure mode.
Section 6. Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
For non-emergency personnel :
No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without
suitable training. Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and
unprotected personnel from entering. In the case of aerosols being
ruptured, care should be taken due to the rapid escape of the
pressurised contents and propellant. If a large number of containers
are ruptured, treat as a bulk material spillage according to the
instructions in the clean-up section. Do not touch or walk through
spilt material. Shut off all ignition sources. No flares, smoking or
flames in hazard area. Avoid breathing vapour or mist. Provide
adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is
inadequate. Put on appropriate personal protective equipment.
For emergency responders :
If specialised clothing is required to deal with the spillage, take note
of any information in Section 8 on suitable and unsuitable materials.
See also the information in "For non-emergency personnel".
Environmental precautions :
Avoid dispersal of spilt material and runoff and contact with soil,
waterways, drains and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the
product has caused environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil
or air).
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Small spill :
Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Use
spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Dilute with water
and mop up if water-soluble. Alternatively, or if water-insoluble,
absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate waste
