6. Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Ensure adequate ventilation. Use personal protective equipment. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Surfaces may become slippery after spillage.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible.
Absorb with inert absorbent such as dry clay, sand or diatomaceous earth, commercial sorbents, or recover using pumps. Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal.
Small Spills: Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean contaminated surface thoroughly. Prevent product from entering drains. Do not allow material to contaminate ground water system. Soak up with inert absorbent material and dispose of as hazardous waste. After removal flush contaminated area thoroughly with water.

Appropriate engineering controls
Provide eyewash station. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Ventilation is normally required when handling or using this product to keep exposure to airborne contaminants below the exposure limit. Ventilation should be sufficient to effectively remove and prevent buildup of any dusts or fumes that may be generated during handling or thermal processing. 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.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection Wear chemical goggles.
Skin protection
Hand protection Chemical resistant gloves.
Respiratory protection None required where adequate ventilation conditions exist. If ventilation is insufficient, suitable respiratory protection must be provided.
General hygiene considerations
When using do not eat or drink. Avoid contact with skin. Avoid contact with eyes.
