6. Accidental release measures
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Eliminate all
ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Wear appropriate
protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Avoid inhalation of vapors and spray mists. Do
not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing.
Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Local authorities should be advised if significant
spillages cannot be contained. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS.
Personal precautions,
protective equipment and
emergency procedures
Use water spray to reduce vapors or divert vapor cloud drift. Eliminate all ignition sources (no
smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Keep combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.)
away from spilled material. Take precautionary measures against static discharge. Use only
non-sparking tools. This product is miscible in water.
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. Use a non-combustible material like
vermiculite, sand or earth to soak up the product and place into a container for later disposal.
Following product recovery, flush area with water.
Small Spills: Absorb with earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers
for later disposal. Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to
remove residual contamination.
Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up
Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground.
Environmental precautions
7. Handling and storage
Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read
and understood. Do not handle, store or open near an open flame, sources of heat or sources of
ignition. Protect material from direct sunlight. Explosion-proof general and local exhaust ventilation.
Take precautionary measures against static discharges. All equipment used when handling the
product must be grounded. Use non-sparking tools and explosion-proof equipment. Do not get this
material in contact with eyes. Do not taste or swallow. Avoid inhalation of vapors and spray mists.
Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid prolonged exposure. When using, do not eat,
drink or smoke. Should be handled in closed systems, if possible. Use only outdoors or in a
well-ventilated area. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash hands thoroughly
after handling. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Observe good industrial hygiene
practices.
Precautions for safe handling
Store locked up. Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. Prevent electrostatic charge
build-up by using common bonding and grounding techniques. Store in a cool, dry place out of
direct sunlight. Store in original tightly closed container. Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep in an
area equipped with sprinklers. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the
SDS).
