Fire-Fighting Measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use foam, dry chemical powder or carbon dioxide, do not use water jet
Hazards from Fire: May emit corrosive and toxic gases like carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, hydrogen fluoride
Special Protective Equipment: Firefighters require self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical-resistant protective clothing
Precautions: Remove containers from fire zone if safe, avoid inhaling combustion vapors, cool down containers with water spray

Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions: Use chemical splash goggles, nitrile gloves, long sleeves, avoid breathing vapors
Methods for Containment: Dike spilled material, collect using inert absorbent, prevent leakage into drains and groundwater
Environmental Precautions: Notify authorities of significant releases, keep away from soil and waterways
Cleanup Procedures: Scoop into labeled containers for disposal, ventilate area, wash residues with ample water and detergent

Handling and Storage

Handling: Work in a well-ventilated lab, avoid contact with eyes and skin by using proper PPE, avoid inhaling vapor or mist, prevent contamination from incompatible materials
Storage: Store in tightly closed, corrosion-resistant containers in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated chemical storeroom out of direct sunlight, separate from strong acids and oxidizers, label area clearly

Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Occupational Exposure Limits: No local or international workplace exposure limits have been set
Engineering Controls: Install local exhaust ventilation, fume hoods in handling area
Personal Protection: Gloves (nitrile or chemical-resistant), splash goggles or safety glasses, lab coat, use respiratory protection if vapors are present above nuisance levels
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands and forearms thoroughly after handling, avoid eating or drinking in working area, inspect all personal protection equipment regularly for damage
