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 as sistance.
Containment Technique: Absorb spilled liquid with non -reactive sorbent material. Stop spilled material from
being released to the environment.
Clean -up Technique: Cover spilled material with an alkali, such as soda ash or sodium bicarbon ate. Scoop
up slurry into a large beaker. Adjust to a pH between 6 and 9 with an alkali, such as soda ash or sodium
bicarbonate. Flush reacted material to the drain with a large excess of water. Decontaminate the area of the
spill with a soap solution.
Evacuation Procedure: Evacuate local area (15 foot radius or as directed by your facility's emergency
response plan) when: any quantity is spilled. If conditions warrant, increase the size of the evacuation.
