: Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Approach release from upwind.
Large spill
Prevent entry into sewers, water courses, basements or confined areas. Wash spillages
into an effluent treatment plant or proceed as follows. Contain and collect spillage with
non-combustible, absorbent material e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth
and place in container for disposal according to local regulations (see section 13).
Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor. Contaminated absorbent material
may pose the same hazard as the spilled product. Note: see section 1 for emergency
contact information and section 13 for waste disposal.
7. Handling and storage
: Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see section 8). Eating, drinking and
Handling
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.
Persons with a history of skin sensitization problems or asthma, allergies or chronic or
recurrent respiratory disease should not be employed in any process in which this product
is used. Do not get in eyes or on skin or clothing. Do not breathe vapor or mist. Do not
ingest. Use only with adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is
inadequate. Keep in the original container or an approved alternative made from a
compatible material, kept tightly closed when not in use. Empty containers retain product
residue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse container.
: Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original container protected from direct

section 10) 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.
