| [Fire Fighting] SMALL FIRES: Water spray or fog is preferred; if water not available use dry chemical, carbon dioxide or regular foam. LARGE FIRES: Flood fire area with water from a distance. Use water spray or fog; do not use straight streams. Move containers from fire area if you can do it without risk. Do not move cargo or vehicle if cargo has been exposed to heat. Fight fire from maximum distance or use unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles. Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out. ALWAYS stay away from tanks engulfed in fire. For massive fire, use unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles; if this is impossible, withdraw from area and let fire burn. | |
| [Fire Potential] May be ignited by heat, sparks or flames. May burn rapidly with flare-burning effect. | |
| [Ingestion] If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Seek medical assistance. | |
| [Inhalation] Causes irritation. | |
| [Inhalation] Move to fresh air. If breathing becoms difficult, seek madical assistance. | |
| [Skin] May cause severe injury or burns. | |
| [Skin] Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. | |
| [Eyes] See Skin. | |
| [Eyes] Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid. | |
| [Storage] Regrigerate. Keep in a tightly closed container. | |
| [Handling] All chemicals should be considered hazardous. Avoid direct physical contact. Use appropriate, approved safety equipment. Untrained individuals should not handle this chemical or its container. Handling should occur in a chemical fume hood. | |
| [Ingestion] See Skin. | |
| [Inhalation] Causes irritation. | |
| [Skin] May cause severe injury or burns. | |
| [Eyes] See Skin. | |
| [Hazards] May explode from heat, shock, friction or contamination. May ignite combustibles (wood, paper, oil, clothing, etc.). May be ignited by heat, sparks or flames. May burn rapidly with flare-burning effect. Containers may explode when heated. Runoff may create fire or explosion hazard. | |

| [Small spills/leaks] ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Keep combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Keep substance wet using water spray. Stop leak if you can do it without risk. SMALL SPILLS: Take up with inert, damp, noncombustible material using clean non-sparking tools and place into loosely covered plastic containers for later disposal. | |
| [Incompatibilities] Organic compounds can ignite on contact with concentrated peroxides, strongly reduced material such as sulfides, nitrides, and hydrides | |
| [Stability] Unstable. Self ignition is possible. | |
| [Decomposition] Self ignition is possible. | |
| [Combustion Products] Emits toxic fumes upon combustion. | |
