3 Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters Specific hazards arising from the chemical Wear self-contained, approved breathing apparatus and full protective clothing, including eye protection and boots. Emits toxic fumes (nitrogen oxides, ammonia, carbon oxides) under fire conditions. (See also Stability and Reactivity section). Vapors can travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Containers may explode in a fire. Cool containers from a distance using water spray. SENSITIVE TO STATIC DISCHARGE. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Environmental precautions Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up See section 8 for recommendations on the use of personal protective equipment. Prevent spillage from entering drains. Any release to the environment may be subject to federal/national or local reporting requirements. Neutralize spill with sodium bicarbonate or soda lime. Absorb spill with noncombustible absorbent material, then sweep and place in a suitable container for disposal. Clean surfaces thoroughly with water to remove residual contamination. Dispose of all waste and cleanup materials in accordance with regulations. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for safe handling See section 8 for recommendations on the use of personal protective equipment. Use with adequate ventilation. Wash thoroughly after using. Keep container closed when not in use. Avoid formation of aerosols. Keep away from sources of ignition. No smoking. Take measure to prevent the buildup of electrostatic charge. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Store in cool, dry well ventilated area. Keep away from incompatible materials (see section 10 for incompatibilities). 8.
