SDS

Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up
Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Keep
combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. Stop the flow of material, if this is
without risk. Collect spillage. Dike far ahead of spill for later disposal. Wipe up with absorbent
material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination. Prevent
entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas. For waste disposal, see section 13 of
the SDS.
Environmental precautions
Avoid release to the environment. Contact local authorities in case of spillage to drain/aquatic
environment. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not contaminate water. Avoid
discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. Use appropriate containment to avoid
environmental contamination.
7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Minimize fire risks from flammable and combustible materials (including combustible dust and
static accumulating liquids) or dangerous reactions with incompatible materials. Handling
operations that can promote accumulation of static charges include but are not limited to: mixing,
filtering, pumping at high flow rates, splash filling, creating mists or sprays, tank and container
filling, tank cleaning, sampling, gauging, switch loading, vacuum truck operations. Pressurized
container: Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Do not use if spray button is missing or defective.
Do not spray on a naked flame or any other incandescent material. Do not smoke while using or
until sprayed surface is thoroughly dry. Do not cut, weld, solder, drill, grind, or expose containers to
heat, flame, sparks, or other sources of ignition. Use caution around energized equipment. The
metal container will conduct electricity if it contacts a live source. This may result in injury to the
user from electrical shock and/or flash fire. Avoid breathing mist or vapor. Avoid breathing gas.
Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid prolonged exposure. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Wear
appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Observe good
industrial hygiene practices. Avoid release to the environment. Do not empty into drains. For
product usage instructions, please see the product label.
Conditions for safe storage,
including any incompatibilities
Level 3 Aerosol.
Pressurized container. Protect from sunlight and do not expose to temperatures exceeding
50°C/122 °F. Do not puncture, incinerate or crush. Do not handle or store near an open flame,
heat or other sources of ignition. This material can accumulate static charge which may cause
spark and become an ignition source. Avoid spark promoters. These alone may be insufficient to
remove static electricity. Store in a well-ventilated place. Store away from incompatible materials
(see Section 10 of the SDS). Keep out of the reach of children.
