6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautions
Use personal protective equipment. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Material can create slippery
conditions.
Environmental Precautions
Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system.
Methods for Containment
Contain spillage, soak up with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth,
vermiculite) and transfer to a container for disposal according to local / national regulations (see section 13).
Methods for Cleaning Up
Use clean non-sparking tools to collect absorbed material. Pick up and transfer to properly labeled containers.
Neutralizing Agent
Not applicable.

Engineering Measures
Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas.
Personal Protective Equipment
Eye/Face Protection
Safety glasses with side-shields.
Skin Protection
For prolonged or repeated contact, use protective gloves
Respiratory Protection
In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection. When workers are facing concentrations above the
exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators.
General Hygiene Considerations
Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location. Remove and wash
contaminated clothing before re-use.
