Unsuitable extinguishing media
: High volume water jet
5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Specific hazards during fire-fighting
: Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.
Hazardous combustion products
: Hazardous decomposition products due to incomplete com-bustion
5.3 Advice for firefighters
Special protective equipment for firefighters
: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
Further information
: Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains.
Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

For personal protection see section 8.
Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the ap-plication area.
Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms.
Dispose of rinse water in accordance with local and national regulations.
Persons susceptible to skin sensitisation problems or asth-ma, allergies, chronic or recurrent respiratory disease should not be employed in any process in which this mixture is being used.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion
: Avoid dust formation. Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed.
Hygiene measures
: When using do not eat or drink. When using do not smoke. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.
7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Requirements for storage areas and containers
: Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be carefully re-sealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Observe label precautions.
