Hazard Dangerous fire risk, reacts with water to form flammable gases.
Safety

A very dangerous fire hazard in the form of dust when exposed to heat or flame or by chemical reaction with moisture or acids. In contact with water, silane and hydrogen are evolved. Slightly explosive in the form of dust when exposed to flame. Will react with water or steam to produce flammable vapors; on contact with oxidizing materials, can react vigorously; on contact with acid or acid fumes, can emit toxic and flammable fumes. To fight fire, use CO₂, dry chemical. See also LITHIUM, SILICON, and POWDERED METALS.
Produce flammable gases on contact with water. May ignite on contact with water or moist air. Some react vigorously or explosively on contact with water. May be ignited by heat, sparks or flames. May re-ignite after fire is extinguished. Some are transported in highly flammable liquids. Runoff may create fire or explosion hazard.
