Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons:

not applicable
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Ambient fire may lead to hazardous fumes. Exposure to combustion products may be a health hazard! Hazardous combustion
products: toxic and very toxic fumes .
Advice for firefighters
Special protective equipment for fire fighting:
Use respiratory protection independent of recirculated air. Keep unprotected persons away.
General information:
Product does not burn. Use extinguishing measures appropriate to the source of the fire.

SECTION 6: Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Secure the area. Wear personal protection equipment (see section 8). Keep unprotected persons away. Avoid contact with eyes
and skin. Do not inhale gases/vapours/aerosols. If material is released indicate risk of slipping. Do not walk through spilled
material.
Environmental precautions
Prevent material from entering surface waters, drains or sewers and soil. Close leak if possible without risk. Contain any fluid that
runs out using suitable material (e.g. earth). Retain contaminated water/extinguishing water. Dispose of in prescribed marked
containers. Inform authorities if substance leaks into surface waters, sewerage or ground.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Take up mechanically and dispose of according to local/state/federal regulations. Do not flush away with water. For small
amounts: Absorb with a neutral (non-acidic / non-basic) liquid binding material such as diatomaceous earth and dispose of
according to government regulations. For large amounts: Liquids may be recovered using suction devices or pumps. If flammable,
only air driven or properly rated electrical equipment should be used. Clean any slippery coating that remains using a detergent /
soap solution or another biodegradable cleaner. Silicone fluids are slippery; spills are a safety hazard. Apply sand or other inert
granular material to improve traction.
Reference to other sections
Relevant information in other sections has to be considered. This applies in particular for information given on personal protective
equipment (section 8) and on disposal (section 13).

SECTION 7: Handling and storage

incompatible substances in accordance with section 10.
Precautions against fire and explosion:
Observe the general rules for fire prevention.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Conditions for storage rooms and vessels:
Observe local/state/federal regulations.
Advice for storage of incompatible materials:
