Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear full protective gear, including self-contained breathing apparatus
Advice for Firefighters: Avoid inhalation of fumes, cool containers with water from a distance, ensure proper ventilation after fire
Personal Precautions: Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing, use appropriate personal protection, ventilate area
Emergency Procedures: Evacuate unnecessary personnel, prevent dust or vapor formation, stop spill if safe
