6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Spill Response Notice:
Only persons properly qualified to respond to an emergency involving hazardous substances should respond to a spill
involving chemicals. See Section 13, Special Instructions for disposal assistance.
Containment Technique: Releases of this material may contaminate the environment. Remove all combustible material
from spill area. Remove all ignition and spark-creating sources from the spill area. Cover spilled liquid with a
commercially available flammable liquid sorbent such as vapor barrier blanket or activated carbon to avoid evolution of
fumes. Vapors may travel to a source of ignition and flash back. May be ignited by: heat, sparks, or flames. Material will
float on water creating a fire hazard. Dike the material to create a barrier to combustibles.
Clean-up Technique: Eliminate all sources of ignition. Cover spilled material with an inert ingredient and calcium
carbonate. Use only non-sparking tools. Sweep up material. Incinerate material at an E.P.A. approved hazardous waste
facility. Decontaminate the area of the spill with a soap solution.
Evacuation Procedure: Evacuate general area (50 foot radius or as directed by your facility's emergency response plan)
when: a gallon or more of liquid is spilled. If conditions warrant, increase the size of the evacuation.
