rupture violently when heated releasing contents.
In a fire, the following hazardous materials may be generated: very toxic carbon
monoxide, carbon dioxide.

3. Advice for firefighters:


Fight fire from a safe distance or a protected location. Approach fire from upwind to
avoid hazardous vapors or gasses. Knock down vapors or gasses with water fog or
fine water spray. For a massive fire, immediately evacuate the area and use
unmanned hose holder or monitor nozzles. Dike and recover contaminated water for
appropriate disposal. Fire-fighters may enter the area if positive pressure SCBA and
full Bunker Gear is worn.

SECTION VI: Accidental Release Measures
