SECTION 6: Accidental release measures
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal precautions No action shall be taken without appropriate training or involving any personal risk. Keep
unnecessary and unprotected personnel away from the spillage. Wear protective clothing as
described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet. Follow precautions for safe handling
described in this safety data sheet. Wash thoroughly after dealing with a spillage. Ensure
procedures and training for emergency decontamination and disposal are in place. Do not
touch or walk into spilled material. Evacuate area. Risk of explosion.
6.2. Environmental precautions
Environmental precautions Avoid discharge to the aquatic environment. Large Spillages: Inform the relevant authorities if
environmental pollution occurs (sewers, waterways, soil or air).
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for cleaning up Wear protective clothing as described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet. Clear up spills
immediately and dispose of waste safely. Eliminate all ignition sources if safe to do so. No
smoking, sparks, flames or other sources of ignition near spillage. Approach the spillage from
upwind. Under normal conditions of handling and storage, spillages from aerosol containers
are unlikely. If aerosol cans are ruptured, care should be taken due to the rapid escape of the
pressurised contents and propellant. Small Spillages: Wipe up with an absorbent cloth and
dispose of waste safely. Large Spillages: If the product is soluble in water, dilute the spillage
with water and mop it up. Alternatively, or if it is not water-soluble, absorb the spillage with an
inert, dry material and place it in a suitable waste disposal container. Flush contaminated area
with plenty of water. Wash thoroughly after dealing with a spillage. Dispose of waste to
licensed waste disposal site in accordance with the requirements of the local Waste Disposal
Authority.
6.4. Reference to other sections
Reference to other sections For personal protection, see Section 8. See Section 11 for additional information on health
hazards. See Section 12 for additional information on ecological hazards. For waste disposal,
see Section 13.
SECTION 7: Handling and storage
7.1. Precautions for safe handling
Usage precautions Read and follow manufacturer's recommendations. Wear protective clothing as described in
Section 8 of this safety data sheet. Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs.
Avoid exposing aerosol containers to high temperatures or direct sunlight. Avoid discharge to
the aquatic environment. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and
understood. Do not handle broken packages without protective equipment. Do not spray on
an open flame or other ignition source. Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Spray will
evaporate and cool rapidly and may cause frostbite or cold burns if in contact with skin. Avoid
contact with eyes. Avoid inhalation of vapours and spray/mists.
