Special protective precautions and equipment for fire fighters
Fire fighters should wear full protective equipment including self-contained breathing apparatus.
Use water spray to cool fire exposed surface and to protect personnel. If leak or spill has not
ignited, use water spray to disperse the vapours and protect men attempting to stop leak. Use foam
or dry chemical to extinguish fire. Avoid spraying water directly into storage containers due to the
dangers of boilover.
Hazards from Combustion Products
Flammable liquid. Liquid can release vapours that can readily form flammable mixtures at
temperatures above the flash point. Product can accumulate static charges which can cause an
incendiary discharge. Toxic vapours and gases such as carbon monoxide are generated when this
product is involved in a fire.
