Section 5: Firefighting Measures

5.1. Extinguishing Media

Suitable extinguishing media: The product is not flammable. The product is non-combustible. Unsuitable extinguishing media: Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.

5.2. Special Hazards Arising from the Substance or Mixture

Specific hazards: Containers can burst violently or explode when heated, due to excessive pressure build-up. Hazardous combustion products: Thermal decomposition or combustion products may include the following substances: Irritating gases or vapours.

5.3. Advice for Firefighters

Protective actions during firefighting: Avoid breathing fire gases or vapours. Evacuate area. Keep upwind to avoid inhalation of gases, vapours, fumes and smoke. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Cool containers exposed to heat with water spray and remove them from the fire area if it can be done without risk. Cool containers exposed to flames with water until well after the fire is out. Control run-off water by containing and keeping it out of sewers and watercourses. If risk of water pollution occurs, notify appropriate authorities. Special protective equipment for firefighters: Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and appropriate protective clothing. Firefighter's clothing conforming to European standard EN469 (including helmets, protective boots and gloves) will provide a basic level of protection for chemical incidents.
