Intervention Actions-Fire (involving the substance): heating of container(s) will cause pressure rise with risk of bursting and subsequent explosion. Gives off toxic and irritant fumes when heated or burning. May attack metals and produce hydrogen gas which may form explosive mixture with air. The vapour may be invisible and is heavier than air. It spreads along the ground and may enter sewers and basements. Keep container(s) cool with water. Extinguish with water fog (spray). Do not use water jet to extinguish. Use water spray to knock down fire fumes if possible. Avoid unnecessary run-off of extinguishing media which may cause pollution.
