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: Cover spilled solid materia l with sand or other inert material. Stop spilled material
from being released to the environment.
Clean -up Technique: Scoop up spilled material into a large beaker and dissolve with water. Adjust to a pH
between 6 and 9 with an acid, such as sulfuri c or citric. 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 pl an) when: any quantity is spilled. If conditions warrant, increase the size of the evacuation.
