Harmful; Irritant; Dangerous for the Environment
[Small spills/leaks]

Keep material out of water sources and sewers. Build dikes to contain flow as necessary. Land spill: Dig a pit, pond, lagoon, holding area to contain liquid or solid material. Dike surface flow using soil, sand bags, foamed polyurethane, or foamed concrete. Absorb bulk liquid with fly ash or cement powder. Water spill: If dissolved, in region of 10 ppm or greater concentration, apply activated carbon at ten times the spilled amount. Remove trapped material with suction hoses. Use mechanical dredges or lifts to remove immobilized masses of pollutants and precipitates.
[Stability]

Containers may rupture under fire conditions.
[Incompatibilities]

May react exothermically with acids to generate alcohols Interaction with basic or caustic solutions.
[Combustion Products]

Irritating fumes of sulfur oxides are produced.
