SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Evacuate unprotected and untrained personnel from hazard area. The spill should be cleaned up by qualified
personnel. Ventilate the
area with fresh air. For large spill, or spills in confined spaces, provide mechanical ventilation to disperse or exhaust
vapors, in
accordance with good industrial hygiene practice. Warning! A motor could be an ignition source and could cause
flammable gases or
vapors in the spill area to burn or explode. Remember, adding an absorbent material does not remove a toxic,
corrosivity or
flammability hazard.
6.2. Environmental precautions
For larger spills, cover drains and build dikes to prevent entry into sewer systems or bodies of water. Collect the
resulting residue
containing solution. Place in a metal container approved for transportation by appropriate authorities. Dispose of
collected material
as soon as possible.
Clean-up methods
Refer to other sections of this MSDS for information regarding physical and health hazards, respiratory protection,
ventilation, and
personal protective equipment. Call 3M-HELPS line (1-800-364-3577) for more information on handling and
managing the spill.
Contain spill. Working from around the edges of the spill inward, cover with bentonite, vermiculite, or
commercially available
inorganic absorbent material. Mix in sufficient absorbent until it appears dry. Collect as much of the spilled material
as possible.
Clean up residue with an appropriate solvent selected by a qualified and authorized person. Ventilate the area with
fresh air. Read
and follow safety precautions on the solvent label and MSDS.
In the event of a release of this material, the user should determine if the release qualifies as reportable
