  1. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Extinguishing media Not combustible. Use extinguishing media suited to burning materials. Alcohol resistant foam is the preferred firefighting medium but, if it is not available, normal foam can be used.

Hazard from combustion products The major hazard in fires is usually inhalation of heated and toxic or oxygen deficient (or both) fire gases. There is little risk of an explosion from this product if commercial quantities are involved in a fire.

Precautions for fighting fires Fire fighters should wear full protective gear, including self-contained breathing apparatus (AS/NZS 1715/1716). Keep unnecessary people away. If it can be done safely remove intact containers from the fire. Bund area with sand or earth to prevent contamination of drains or waterways. Dispose of fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water in accordance with local regulations. Do not release contaminated water into the environment.
