5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

See heading 9

Extinguishing media :

- suitable:

Foam, carbon dioxide (CO2), powder.

- not recommended:

do not use water jets (stick jets) for extinguishing fire since they could help to

spread the flames.

Specific hazards :

Incomplete combustion and thermolysis produce gases of varying toxicity such as

CO, CO2, various hydrocarbons, SULPHUR OXIDES, aldehydes, etc., and soot.

These are highly dangerous if inhaled.

Vapours can build explosive mixtures with air.

Vapours are heavier than air and may spread on the ground to sources of ignition.

Protective measures for firefighters :

Insulated breathing apparatus must be worn in confined premises with heavy

concentrations of fumes and gases.

Other :

All combustion residues and contaminated water from fire-fighting should be

disposed of according to local regulations.

See sections 8 and 13.

Personal protection :

Ensure good ventilation.

Remove sources of ignition. Do not smoke.

After spillage / leakage :

Surfaces on which the product has been spilled may become slippery. Do not allow

the product to enter sewers or rivers or contaminate the soil. Recover with

mechanical means such as pumps and skimmers. Contain and collect the spilled

product with sand or any other inert absorbant material.
