emergency procedures
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up
Environmental precautions
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Keep out of
low areas. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Do not breathe
mist or vapor. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate
protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation. Local authorities should be advised if significant
spillages cannot be contained. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS.
This product is miscible in water.
Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Use water spray to reduce vapors or
divert vapor cloud drift. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Cover with plastic sheet to
prevent spreading. Absorb in vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Prevent
entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas. Following product recovery, flush area
with water. Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to
remove residual contamination. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.
Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground.

General hygiene
considerations
No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s).
Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates
should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation,
or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If
exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Eye
wash facilities and emergency shower must be available when handling this product.
Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles) and a face shield.
Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves.
Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing.
In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.
Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.
Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material
and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective
equipment to remove contaminants. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as
