6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
RELEASE RESPONSE: In case of a release, clear the affected area and respond with trained personnel. Uncontrolled, non-
incidental, releases should be responded to by appropriately trained personnel in proper personal protective equipment,
using pre-planned procedures. Wear neoprene or other chemically resistant gloves for incidental releases (e.g., one, 6 mL
bottle). Larger releases (e.g., rupture of a process container or several bottles in which one gallon of this material is
released) should be responded to in gloves, goggles, and appropriate body protection. An air-purifying respirator with an
organic vapor cartridge must be worn during spill responses in which excessive vapors are generated or if the area of the
release is poorly ventilated. In the event of a non-incidental release in which the material is reacting with other substances,
or when the oxygen level is below 19.5% or is unknown, minimum Personal Protective Equipment should be Level B: triple-
gloves (rubber gloves and nitrile gloves over latex gloves), chemical resistant suit and boots, hard-hat, and Self-Contained
Breathing Apparatus. Absorb spilled liquid with polypads or other suitable absorbent materials. Decontaminate the area
thoroughly. Place all spill residue in an appropriate container and seal. Dispose of in accordance with Federal, State, and

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS - PERSONAL PROTECTION
VENTILATION AND ENGINEERING CONTROLS: None normally needed under typical circumstances of use. Local
exhaust may be necessary under some usage and handling situations. Prudent practice is to ensure eyewash/safety shower
stations are available near areas where this product is used.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: None normally needed under typical circumstances of use. Maintain airborne contaminant
concentrations below guidelines listed in Section 2 (Composition and Information on Ingredients) if applicable. If respiratory
protection is needed, use only respiratory protection authorized in the U.S. Federal OSHA Respiratory Protection Standard
(29 CFR 1910.134), or equivalent U.S. State standards, the Canadian CSA Standard Z94.4-93, or the European Standard
EN166. An air-purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge is recommended for situations in which excessive vapors
are generated or during operations in poorly ventilated areas. Oxygen levels below 19.5% are considered IDLH by OSHA.
In such atmospheres, use of a full-facepiece pressure/demand SCBA or a full facepiece, supplied air respirator with auxiliary
self-contained air supply is required under OSHA's Respiratory Protection Standard (1910.134-1998).
EYE PROTECTION: Splash goggles or safety glasses may be worn if operations can generate mists of this product.
