Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal precautionsRemove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas.
Environmental precautions
Environmental precautionsPrevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Prevent product from entering drains.
See Section 12 for additional Ecological Information. Should not be released into the environment.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Methods for containmentPrevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.
Methods for cleaning up
Pick up and transfer to properly labeled containers. Dam up. Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust).
Precautions for safe handling
Advice on safe handlingEnsure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Keep away from heat, sparks, flame and other sources of ignition (i.e., pilot lights, electric motors and static electricity).
Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded. May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure.

Skin and Body Protection
Wear protective gloves and protective clothing.
Respiratory protection
If exposure limits are exceeded or irritation is experienced, NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory protection should be worn. Positive-pressure supplied air respirators may be required for high airborne contaminant concentrations. Respiratory protection must be provided in accordance with current local regulations.
General Hygiene Considerations
When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Regular cleaning of equipment, work area and clothing is recommended.
