SECTION 6: Accidental Release Measures
Personal Protective Measures: Provide adequate ventilation and keep all unnecessary and unprotected
personnel from entering the area. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Avoid breathing vapor
or mist. Wear an appropriate respirator when ventilation is inadequate. Use appropriate safety equipment
before taking any action.
Methods and Material for Containment and Cleaning Up: Stop flow of material with sand or other
inert material and move container from spill area. Absorb spill with an inert material, scrape up and
place in appropriate waste disposal container. Remove residual resin with non-flammable solvent and
flush contaminated area with hot water. Do not dump waste into any sewers, on the ground or into any
body of water. Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff. All disposal methods must be compliant
with all Federal, State, and local laws and regulations.
SECTION 7: Handling and Storage
Precautions for Safe Handling: Wear safety glasses. Do not combine this product with sodium nitrite
or other nitrosating agents. Suspected cancer-causing nitrosamines could be formed. Avoid contact with
acids, oxidizers, acrylates, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones and halogenated hydrocarbons. Avoid contact
with metal such as copper, copper alloys, brass and bronze. Wear personal protection equipment
including safety glasses. Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing. Avoid any forms of ingestion. Do
not breathe vapor, mist or spray. Use only with good ventilation or use suitable respiratory protection.
Persons with a history of skin sensitization problems should avoid contact with any process in which this
product is used. Do not ingest. Avoid release to the environment. Keep in the original container or an
approved alternative made from a compatible material, kept tightly closed when not in use. Empty
containers retain product residue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse container.
Conditions for Safe Storage, Including Any Incompatibilities: Store in tightly sealed, original
container in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place protected from direct sunlight. Keep container sealed
until use. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Store away from incompatible materials such
as acids and food and drink. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination.
Product may freeze with extended exposure to low temperatures. If this occurs, warm the product to 100
– 140°F (38 – 60°C) for one hour and stir until clear.

Engineering Controls: Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control worker exposure to
airborne contaminants. If user operations generate vapor, process enclosures or local exhaust may be
necessary.
