| Fire Fighting Measures | Back to Contents | 【Flash Point】
97 | 【Autoignition】
335 | 【Fire Fighting】
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution. Extinguishing media: Substance is noncombustible; use agent most appropriate to extinguish surrounding fire. | 【Upper exp. limit】
24.5 | 【Fire Potential】
May burn but does not ignite readily. |
| Accidental Release Measures | Back to Contents | 【Small spills/leaks】
Absorb spill with inert material, (e.g., dry sand or earth), then place into a chemical waste container. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead to waterways. Clean up spills immediately, using the appropriate protective equipment. Provide ventilation. |
| Stability and Reactivity | Back to Contents | 【Stability】
Stable under normal shipping and handling conditions. | 【Incompatibilities】
Strong oxidizers, strong bases, and metals such as aluminum, magnesium, and zinc in the presence of steam. Will attack some forms of plastics, rubber,and coatings. | 【Decomposition】
Irritating and toxic fumes and gases, hydrogen bromide, bromine fumes, carbonyl bromide. | 【Combustion Products】
When heated, it emits highly toxic fumes of carbonyl bromide. |
