Dangerous chloroprene fires are best extinguished by shutting off the source of fuel. carbon dioxide, dry chemicals, and water spray (fog nozzle) may be used as control measures.
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Decomposes yielding toxic fumes Behavior in Fire: Dangerous when exposed to heat or flame (USCG, 1999)
Use powder, water spray, foam, carbon dioxide. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.

NIOSH considers beta-chloroprene to be a potential occupational carcinogen. /SRP: No IDLH value specified/.
The substance can readily form explosive peroxides under specific circumstances, initiating explosive polymerization. The substance may polymerize if it is not stabilized. This generates fire or explosion hazard. On combustion, forms toxic and corrosive gases including phosgene (see ICSC 0007) and hydrogen chloride (see ICSC 0163). Reacts with oxidants and powdered metals. This generates fire and explosion hazard.
Resistant to oils, oxygen, ozone, corona discharge, & electric current
COMBUSTIBLE, BUT LESS SO THAN NATURAL RUBBER.The vapour is heavier than air and may travel along the ground; distant ignition possible. As a result of flow, agitation, etc., electrostatic charges can be generated.CHLOROPRENE emits highly toxic fumes of chlorine gas when heated to decomposition. Autooxidizes very rapidly with air and, even at 0° C, produces unstable peroxides that catalyze exothermic polymerization [Bretherick, 5th ed., 1995, p. 507]. This reactivity is greatly slowed by presence of an inhibitor.

A study reported functional disturbances in spermatogenesis in workers exposed to chloroprene and increased spontaneous abortions in the wives of exposed workers. However, insufficient details are available in the reports to adequately evaluate the results. (1) Reproductive effects including a decreased number of spermatogonia, a decline in sperm motility, an increased number of dead sperm, and degeneration of the testes have been observed in male rats exposed by inhalation or dermal contact. (1) Increased embryonal mortality and decreased fetal weight were reported in rats exposed by inhalation; contamination may have occurred during this study. No effects on embryonic or fetal survival nor incidence of soft tissue or skeletal defects were observed in other studies of rats exposed by inhalation. (1).
The substance is severely irritating to the eyes. The substance is irritating to the skin and respiratory tract. Exposure at high levels could cause lung oedema. The substance may cause effects on several organs. This may result in impaired functions. Exposure above the OEL could cause death.
Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis and hair loss. The substance may have effects on multiple organs. This may result in impaired functions. This substance is possibly carcinogenic to humans.
A harmful contamination of the air can be reached very quickly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.

An estimated BCF of 18 was calculated for 2-chloro-1,3-butadiene(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 2.53(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low (SRC).
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc for 2-chloro-1,3-butadiene can be estimated to be 68(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that 2-chloro-1,3-butadiene is expected to have high mobility in soil.

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
