SECTION 5: Firefighting measures
Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure
mode. Clothing for fire-fighters (including helmets, protective boots and gloves)
conforming to European standard EN 469 will provide a basic level of protection for
chemical incidents.

6.2 Environmental
precautions
Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Use spark-proof tools and
explosion-proof equipment. Approach the release from upwind. Prevent entry into
sewers, water courses, basements or confined areas. Wash spillages into an
effluent treatment plant or proceed as follows. Contain and collect spillage with non-
combustible, absorbent material e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth
and place in container for disposal according to local regulations. Dispose of via a
licensed waste disposal contractor. Contaminated absorbent material may pose the
same hazard as the spilt product.
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). Water polluting material. May be harmful
to the environment if released in large quantities. Collect spillage.
Large 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 disposal container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal
contractor.

6.4 Reference to other
sections
See Section 1 for emergency contact information.
See Section 8 for information on appropriate personal protective equipment.
See Section 13 for additional waste treatment information.
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.
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".

SECTION 7: Handling and storage
The information in this section contains generic advice and guidance. The list of Identified Uses in Section 1 should be
consulted for any available use-specific information provided in the Exposure Scenario(s).
7.1 Precautions for safe handling
Protective measures
:
Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Pressurised
container: protect from sunlight and do not expose to temperature exceeding 50°C.
Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Do not ingest. Avoid contact with eyes, skin
and clothing. Avoid breathing gas. Avoid breathing vapour or mist. Avoid release
to the environment. Use only with adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate
respirator when ventilation is inadequate. Store and use away from heat, sparks,
open flame or any other ignition source. Use explosion-proof electrical (ventilating,
lighting and material handling) equipment. Use only non-sparking tools. Empty
containers retain product residue and can be hazardous.
