- For safety reasons unsuitable extinguishing agents: Water with full jet.
SPECIAL HAZARDS ARISING FROM THE SUBSTANCE: Formation of toxic gases is possible during heating or in case of fire.
- In case of fire, the following can be released: Carbon monoxide, Carbon dioxide, Phosphorus compounds
ADIVCE FOR FIREFIGHTERS
- Protective equipment: Wear self-contained respiratory protective device.
- Additional information: Cool endangered receptacles with water spray. Collect contaminated fire fighting water separately. It must not enter the sewage system.

Exposure controls / personal protection
CONTROL PARAMETERS
- Ingredients with limit values that require monitoring at the workplace: The product does not contain any relevant quantities of materials with critical values that have to be monitored at the workplace.
EXPOSURE CONTROLS
- General protective and hygienic measures:
Do not eat, drink, smoke or sniff while working. Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed. The usual precautionary measures are to be adhered to when handling chemicals.
- Respiratory protection: Not necessary if room is well-ventilated.
- Protection of hands: The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation. Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation. The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. As the product is a preparation of several substances, the resistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance and has therefore to be checked prior to the application.
- Eye protection: Safety glasses
- Body protection: Protective work clothing
Stability and reactivity
- Reactivity: The substance liberates CO2 when mixed with an acid stronger than carbonic acid. This might cause pressure build up if done in an atmospheric tank with insufficient vent.
- Chemical stability: No decomposition if used and stored according to specifications.
- Thermal decomposition / conditions to be avoided: No decomposition if used according to specifications.
- Possibility of hazardous reactions: No dangerous reactions known.
- Conditions to avoid: No further relevant information available.
- Incompatible materials: No further relevant information available.
- Hazardous decomposition products: No dangerous decomposition products known.
Disposal considerations
WASTE TREATMENT METHODS
- Recommendation: Must be specially treated adhering to official regulations.
UNCLEANED PACKAGING
- Recommendation: Disposal must be made according to official regulations.
