tetrahydrofuran) and sealing paste (Rhenofol paste)
Solvent-welding agents and sealing paste may contain toxic and environmentally
hazardous substances. Fumes can form an explosive mixture with air. Fumes are
heavier than air and spread at floor level. Ignition is possible over greater distances.
During thermal decomposition, harmful gases and fumes may be generated, and
explosive peroxides may be formed.
• Use self-contained respiratory protection.
• Wear chemical protective suit.
• Cool endangered tanks from a safe distance using water spray.
• Do not use a direct high-pressure water spray for extinguishing.
• For extinguishing, use carbon dioxide (CO

• Do not allow extinguishing water contaminated with pollutants to enter
waterways or waste water system.
