Fire

Use water fog or fine spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or alcohol-resistant foam; do not use direct water stream. Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus and protective fire fighting clothing. Aerosol cans exposed to fire can rupture and become flaming projectiles.

Spills

Evacuate area and eliminate ignition sources; ventilate the area. Contain spilled material and absorb with materials such as clay, dirt, sand, sawdust, or vermiculite. Collect in suitable, properly labeled containers. Prevent entry into soil, ditches, sewers, waterways, or groundwater.
