Explosive! Fire or projection hazard Cartridges may ignite and explode if heated to 120°C (248°F) independent of air. Cartridges may ignite and explode if the primer is struck. Burning produces obnoxious and toxic fumes. In the event of fire the following can be released: Carbon oxides; Sulphur oxides; Nitrogen oxides (NOx); Metal oxides; Aldehydes; Other unidentified organic compounds.

: 5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

5.3 Advice for firefighters Protective equipment for fire-fighters

: Firefighters should wear an approved full-face, self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and impervious clothing. Unconfined ignited cartridges can produce low velocity metallic fragments which may cause eye injury or superficial skin wounds if unprotected by standard firefighter turnout gear.

: Special fire-fighting procedures

In case of fire: Evacuate area. DO NOT fight fire when fire reaches explosives. Do not enter fire area without proper protection. Shield personnel from exploding cartridges. Move containers from fire area if safe to do so. Water spray may be useful in cooling equipment exposed to heat and flame. Cargo fires: Packages bearing the 1.4S label or packages containing material classified as 1.4S are designed or packaged in such manner that when involved in a fire, may burn vigorously with localized detonations and projection of fragments. Effects are usually confined to immediate vicinity of packages. If fire threatens cargo area containing packages bearing the 1.4S label or packages containing material classified as 1.4S, consider isolating at least 15 meters (50 feet) in all directions. Fight fire with normal precautions from a reasonable distance. Tire or vehicle fires: Use plenty of water - FLOOD it! If water is not available, use CO2, dry chemical or dirt. If possible, and WITHOUT RISK, use unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles from maximum distance to prevent fire from spreading to cargo area. Pay special attention to the tire fires as re-ignition may occur. Stand by with extinguisher ready. Evacuation: Large spill: Consider initial evacuation for 50 meters (150 feet) in all directions.

Restrict access to area until completion of clean-up. Do not clean up or dispose of, except under supervision of a specialist. All persons dealing with the clean-up should wear the appropriate chemically protective equipment.

6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

6.2 Environmental precautions :



Telephone: +1 (450) 581-3080




For solid, intact cartridges: Handle spills carefully. Do not subject cartridges to mechanical shock. Ventilate the area. Remove all sources of ignition. Pick up and transfer to properly labeled containers. If spill occurs in an area where there is a fire burning: Large spill: Consider initial evacuation for 50 meters (150 feet) in all directions. Refer to Section 5 for firefighting instructions. If loose powder is present: All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Do not operate radio transmitters within 100 meters (330 feet) of electric detonators. Pick up and arrange disposal without creating dust. Contact the proper local authorities.

: 6.3 Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

6.4 Reference to other sections : Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8. Refer to Section 13 for disposal of
