Hazardous decomposition product : Burning in insufficient air supply may produce toxic fume of carbon
monoxide.
Protective equipment for Fire fighters : Fire fighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus to
avoid inhalation of smoke and vapors.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Shut off all sources of ignition or open flame. Keep public away. For small spills, scrape spilled materials
with disposal towels or dry sand. For large spills, dike and cover liquid with foam. Take up the spill by
equipment made of plastics to avoid sparks and place in closed container. Prevent spills from entering
sewers, watercourses or Low area to avoid pollution.
