MSDS: NYOGEL 760G

Hazardous combustion
products
Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and/or low molecular weight hydrocarbons.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Personal precautions
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages
cannot be contained. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing
appropriate protective clothing. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Observe
precautions from other sections.
Environmental precautions
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers,
basements or confined areas.
Methods for containment
Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible.
Methods for cleaning up
Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is
possible. Cover with plastic sheet to prevent spreading. Soak up with inert absorbent material.
Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Clean contaminated surface
thoroughly. Following product recovery, flush area with water.
Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to
remove residual contamination.
Never return spills in original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the
MSDS. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in Protective Equipment section.
Sweep up and shovel into suitable containers for disposal.
7. Handling and Storage
Handling
Do NOT pressurize, cut, heat, or weld containers. Empty product containers may contain product
residue. Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact with this material. Avoid breathing
gas/vapors/mist/fumes. Do not handle or store near an open flame, heat or other sources of
ignition. Do not take internally. Do not taste or swallow. Avoid contact with eyes. Wash thoroughly
after handling. Handle and open container with care.
Storage
Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Store in cool place. Store in a closed container
away from incompatible materials. Use care in handling/storage.
8. Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Engineering controls
Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control
airborne levels below recommended exposure limits.
Personal protective equipment
Eye / face protection
Wear safety glasses; chemical goggles (if splashing is possible).
Skin protection
Wear suitable protective clothing. Wear nitrile, neoprene, PVC or viton gloves.
Respiratory protection
No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required. An air purifying respirator with an
organic vapor cartridge may be used under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations
are expected to exceed exposure limits, or if irritation or symptoms are experienced. Respiratory
protection must be provided in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.134.
General hygiene
considerations
When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and
safety practice. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Launder contaminated clothing before
