FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS : Not applicable because rock wool retards the spread of fire.
SUITABLE FIRE EXTINGGUISHING MEDIA :Water, foam, carbon dioxide or dry powder
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA WHICH MUST NOT BE USED FOR SAFETY REASONS : None
COMBUSTION PRODUSTS : Carbon dioxide, Carbon monoxide, water and tracer gases
SPECIAL PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT TO BE WORN IN CONNECTION WITH FIRE FIGHTING :
None in particular(only what is normally used in connection with fire extinguishing)

ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

6.1

OCCUPATIONAL RELEASE : Collect spilled material appropriate container for disposal

6.2

WATER RELEASE : Not applicable

7.

HANDLING AND STORAGE

7.1

Unpack mineral wool on a firm and clean base at the place of use immediately before use.

7.2

When cutting is required, use a sharp tool. high-speed cuuting tools must always be provided with
mechanical exhaust

7.3

keep the work area clean. Ensure good ventilation. Dispose of scrap material and debris directly into
Disposal bags.

The products must be stored so that they are protected against damage, including the weather.

EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION

When first heated, the organic binder starts decomposition process in the temperature range of
175~250 . For instance at start-up of a boiler, 50~70% of the binder will burn off within the first
96hours of operation, which is effective to formaldehyde gases and other irritating matters such as
Ammonia and similar amine decomposition products as well as tracers.
A strong degassing of binder(normally at temperature exceeding 250 ) in a poorly ventilated room
Can result in smarting of the eyes and throat. In case the use of a full mask respiratory protection is
Required
PERSONAL PROTEXTIVE EQUIPMENT : Goggles, gloves, respirators, long sleeve clothing

STABILTY AND REACTIVITY

SITUATION TO BE AVOIDED : When mineral wool is first heated, formaldehyde and ammonia are given
off form the binder. The decomposition starts slowly in the temperature range of 175~250
The gases are observed as a pungent smell and a smarting of the eyes.

10.2

REACTIVTY : Stable

10.3

CONDITION TO AVOID : None reported

10.4

POLYMERIZATION : Will not polymerize
