specialized clothing is required to deal with the spillage, take note of any information in Section 8
on suitable and unsuitable materials. See also the information in "For non-emergency
personnel".
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up
Large Spills: Move containers from spill area. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses,
basements or confined areas. Vacuum or sweep up material and place in a designated, labeled
waste container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor. Note: see section 1 of SDS
for emergency contact information and section 13 of SDS for waste disposal.
Small Spills: Move containers from spill area. Vacuum or sweep up material and place in a
designated, labeled waste container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor. Note:
see section 1 of SDS for emergency contact information and section 13 of SDS for waste
disposal.
Environmental precautions
Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains and
sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution
(sewers, waterways, soil or air).
Precautions for safe handling
Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see section 8 of SDS). Eating, drinking and
smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is handled, stored and processed.
Workers should wash hands and face before eating, drinking and smoking. See also Section 8
for additional information on hygiene measures.
Conditions for safe storage,
including any incompatibilities
Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original container protected from direct
sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials (see section 10
of SDS) and food and drink. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use.
Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent
leakage. Do not store in unlabeled containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid
environmental contamination.
