Hazard Data |
- Flash point (test method): n/a
- Flammable limits: n/a
- Extinguishing media: co2 or dry chemical extinguisher - do not use water
- Special fire fighting procedures: co2 or dry chemical extinguisher - do not use water [use niosh/msha self-contained breathing apparatus]
- Unusual fire and explosion hazards: heating metal beyond boiling point results in evolution of zinc vapor which immediately reacts with air to form zinc oxide fumes.
