6. Accidental Release Measures
Personal precautions,
protective equipment and
emergency procedures
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep out of low areas. Keep people away from and upwind of
spill/leak. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Do not touch
damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ensure
adequate ventilation. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be
contained. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS.
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up
Large Spills: Stop leak if you can do so without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is
possible. Cover with plastic sheet to prevent spreading. Absorb spillage to prevent material
damage. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Use water spray to
reduce vapors or divert vapor cloud drift. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or
confined areas. 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 to original containers for re-use.
Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.
Environmental precautions
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not contaminate water. Avoid discharge into
drains, water courses or onto the ground. Do not discharge into lakes, streams, ponds or public
waters.
7. Handling and Storage
