Reactivity : Reacts violently with (some) bases: heat release resulting in increased fire or explosion risk.
Reacts with many compounds e.g.: with (strong) reducers, with organic material and with
combustible materials: (increased) risk of fire/explosion. Violent exothermic reaction with water
(moisture): release of corrosive gases/vapours.
5.3. Special protective equipment and precautions for fire-fighters
Precautionary measures fire : Exposure to fire/heat: keep upwind. Exposure to fire/heat: consider evacuation. Exposure to
fire/heat: seal off low-lying areas. Exposure to fire/heat: have neighbourhood close doors and
windows.
Firefighting instructions : Cool tanks/drums with water spray/remove them into safety. When cooling/extinguishing: no
water in the substance. Dilute toxic gases with water spray.
Protection during firefighting : Heat/fire exposure: compressed air/oxygen apparatus.

environment. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination. Remove
waste in accordance with local and/or national regulations. Hazardous waste shall not be mixed
together with other waste. Different types of hazardous waste shall not be mixed together if this
may entail a risk of pollution or create problems for the further management of the waste.
Hazardous waste shall be managed responsibly. All entities that store, transport or handle
hazardous waste shall take the necessary measures to prevent risks of pollution or damage to
people or animals. Recycle/reuse. Remove to an authorized dump (Class I). Remove for
physico-chemical/biological treatment.
