Fire-fighting measures
Product is non combustible. Use fire fighting measures that suit the environment. Cool endangered containers with water spray jet.
Collect contaminated fire fighting water separately. It must not enter drains.

Accidental release measures
Prevent from spreading (e. g. by enclosing with a ring of chemical absorbent). As the product is hazardous for the aquatic environment, it must be prevented from reaching surface water. Inform authorities in case of contamination of water or sewage system. Soak up with inert absorbent (sand, diatomite, acid binders, universal binders, sawdust).
Handling and storage
Compliance with the minimum requirements designed to guarantee a better standard of safety and health at work is essential to ensure the safety and health of workers. Load carefully, avoid splashes. Prevent release to the environment by adequate secondary containment design and use of appropriate spill control procedures.
