exposure. If the exposure cannot be completely characterized or an oxygen deficient atmosphere is possible
or anticipated, SCBA is recommended. Work gloves that are resistant to hydrocarbons are recommended.
Gloves made of polyvinyl acetate (PVA) are not water-resistant and are not suitable for emergency use.
Chemical goggles are recommended if splashes or contact with eyes is possible. Small spills: normal antistatic
work clothes are usually adequate. Large spills: full body suit of chemical resistant, antistatic material is
recommended.
SPILL MANAGEMENT
Land Spill: Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Recover by pumping or with suitable absorbent.
Water Spill: Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Confine the spill immediately with booms. Warn other
shipping. Remove from the surface by skimming or with suitable absorbents. Seek the advice of a specialist
before using dispersants.
Water spill and land spill recommendations are based on the most likely spill scenario for this material;
however, geographic conditions, wind, temperature, (and in the case of a water spill) wave and current direction
and speed may greatly influence the appropriate action to be taken. For this reason, local experts should be
consulted. Note: Local regulations may prescribe or limit action to be taken.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS
Large Spills: Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later recovery and disposal. Prevent entry into waterways,
sewers, basements or confined areas.
HANDLING
Avoid contact with skin. Prevent small spills and leakage to avoid slip hazard. Material can accumulate static
charges which may cause an electrical spark (ignition source). When the material is handled in bulk, an
electrical spark could ignite any flammable vapors from liquids or residues that may be present (e.g., during
switch-loading operations). Use proper bonding and/or ground procedures. However, bonding and grounds
may not eliminate the hazard from static accumulation. Consult local applicable standards for guidance.

Static, Lightning and Stray Currents) or National Fire Protection Agency 77 (Recommended Practice on Static
Electricity) or CENELEC CLC/TR 50404 (Electrostatics - Code of practice for the avoidance of hazards due to
static electricity).
Static Accumulator: This material is a static accumulator.
STORAGE
The container choice, for example storage vessel, may effect static accumulation and dissipation. Do not store
in open or unlabelled containers.
