SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Use personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Ensure
adequate ventilation. Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.
Beware of vapours accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapours can
accumulate in low areas.
For personal protection see section 8.
Environmental precautions
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains.
Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand,
earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to
local / national regulations (see section 13).
Reference to other sections
For disposal see section 13.


SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
