|
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA Suitable: Use extinguishing media appropriate to surrounding fire conditions. Quench with large quantities of water. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers. SPECIAL RISKS Specific Hazard(s): Contact with other material may cause fire. May accelerate combustion. Emits toxic fumes under fire conditions. Combustion Products: Nitrogen oxides Combustion Gases: May react with metals, releasing flammable hydrogen gas. SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR FIREFIGHTERS Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes. CONDITIONS OF FLAMMABILITY Vigorously supports combustion. SPECIFIC METHOD(S) OF FIRE FIGHTING Do not direct a solid stream of water or foam into burning molten material; this may cause spattering and spread the fire. |
