|
Section 6: Accidental Release Measures |
Emergency Procedures:
Contain.
Prevent spillages from entering natural waters.
For large spills:
Contain spillage using sand or earth. Transfer liquid and solids
to suitable container. Treat residues as for small spillage.
For small spills:
If local regulations permit, mop up with plenty of water and run
to waste, diluting greatly with running water. Otherwise, absorb
on inert absorbent, transfer to suitable container and arrange
removal by disposals company. Wash site of spillage thoroughly
with water and detergent.

Section 7: Handling and Storage |
Precautions for safe handling:
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Keep away from oxidisable materials.
Conditions for safe storage:
Store in a cool, well ventilated place, out of reach of children.
