Fire/Explosion
Hazard
Fire/Explos.
Hazard HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: These products have a low flash point.
Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames at ambient
temperatures.
Vapors will form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors will travel to source of
ignition and flash back. Many
vapors
are heavier than air and will collect in low or confined areas (drains,
basements, tanks). Many liquids are lighter than water.
Containers
may explode on heating. Fire will produce irritating, poisonous or corrosive
gases. Vapors from run-off may create an explosion hazard.
Fire
Fighting Caution: Use of water spray when fighting fire may be
inefficient.
Procedures
Small fire: Use foam, dry chemical, CO2 or water spray.
Large
fire: Use foam, fog or water spray - Do NOT use water jets.
If
safe to do so, move undamaged containers from the fire area. Cool containers
with flooding quantities of water until well after the fire is out.
Avoid
getting water inside the containers.
Fire
Fighting Wear SCBA and chemical splash suit. Fully encapsulating,
gas-tight suits should Precautions be worn for maximum protection.
Structural
firefighter's uniform is NOT effective for these materials.
Hazardous
Reaction Can react vigorously with oxidizing materials. Can ignite in
contact with potassium tert-butoxide.
Can
react vigorously with chloroform in the presence of sodium and sodium
hydroxide.
