6. Accidental Release Measures

Contain the release and eliminate its source if this can be done safely.

Air Release:

Not a hazardous event.

Water Release:

This material is soluble in water. Contain all liquid for treatment and/or disposal as a (potential) hazardous
waste. Notify all downstream users of possible contamination.

Land Release:

Create a dike or trench to contain materials. Absorb spill with inert material (e.g., dry sand, clay, earth or
commercial absorbent), then place in a chemical waste container.
Contain all contaminated water for disposal and/or treatment.

Additional Spill Information:

Stop source of spill as soon as possible and notify appropriate personnel. Utilize emergency response
personal protection equipment prior to the start of any response. Evacuate all non-essential personnel.

7. Handling and Storage

Handling: Do not take internally. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Upon contact with skin or eyes, wash

with water. Avoid breathing vapor, mist or gas.
Storage: Keep container closed when not in use.
Shelf Life Limitations: See label or certificate of analysis for shelf life if applicable.
