prevent explosive rupture.
SECTION 6: Accidental release measures
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Evacuate area. Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. Use only non-sparking tools. 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. Refer to other sections of this SDS for information regarding
physical and health hazards, respiratory protection, ventilation, and personal protective equipment.
6.2. Environmental precautions
Avoid release to the environment. For larger spills, cover drains and build dikes to prevent entry into sewer systems or bodies
of water.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Contain spill. Cover spill area with a fire-extinguishing foam. An appropriate aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) is
recommended. 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. Remember, adding an absorbent
material does not remove a physical, health, or environmental hazard. Collect as much of the spilled material as possible
using non-sparking tools. Place in a metal container approved for transportation by appropriate authorities. 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 SDS. Seal the container. Dispose of collected material as soon as possible.
SECTION 7: Handling and storage
7.1. Precautions for safe handling
Keep out of reach of children. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. Keep away from
heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. Use only non-sparking tools. Take precautionary measures against
static discharge. Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not eat,
drink or smoke when using this product. Wash thoroughly after handling. Avoid release to the environment. Avoid contact
with oxidizing agents (eg. chlorine, chromic acid etc.) Wear low static or properly grounded shoes. Use personal protective
equipment (gloves, respirators, etc.) as required. To minimize the risk of ignition, determine applicable electrical
classifications for the process using this product and select specific local exhaust ventilation equipment to avoid flammable
vapor accumulation. Ground/bond container and receiving equipment if there is potential for static electricity accumulation
during transfer.
7.2. Conditions for safe storage including any incompatibilities
Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep cool. Keep container tightly closed. Protect from sunlight. Store away from heat.
Store away from acids. Store away from oxidizing agents.
