|
Fire-fighting measures |
Spray water to cool the container, and move the container from the fire scene to an open place if possible. The gas is heavier than air and can spread to a considerable distance at a lower place, and will ignite when it encounters a fire source. Extinguishing agent: water mist, foam, carbon dioxide, dry powder |

|
Emergency treatment |
Inhalation: quickly leave the scene to a place with fresh air. Keep the airway unobstructed. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If breathing stops, give artificial respiration immediately. Seek medical attention |
