-       Instructions for the physician: Treat according to symptoms. Keep the victim under medical surveillance.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media: CO2, powder, foam.

Special risks : toxic gases when in contact with fire : COx, HBr.

Inadvisable media : water jet

Special protective equipment for fire-fighting : Wear a complete protection equipment and a self-contained respiratory apparatus.

Other information: Prevent fire extinguishing water from contaminating surface water or the ground water system.

Accidental release measures

Person related precautionary measures : Use personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing dusts. Ensure adequate ventilation. Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.

Environmental-protection measures: Wear gloves, mask with cartridge (ABP) adapted for chemical uses

Procedures for cleaning / absorption: Keep out of drains, prevent entry in natural environment; Recover with an appropriate material, clean the place with an absorbing product and put the whole in a container. Ventilate the place and wash the spreaded zone

Handling and storage

HANDLING
