|
| SECTION 6 : ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES | 01000144 |
| Spill Cleanup Measures: | Sections 13 and 15 of this MSDS provide information regarding certain federal and state
requirements. Clean up remaining materials from spill with suitable absorbant. Clean area as
appropriate since spilled materials, even in small quantities, may present a slip hazard. Final
cleaning may require use of steam, solvents or detergents. For large spills, provide diking or
other appropriate containment to keep material from spreading. If diked material can be
pumped, store recovered material in appropriate container. Observe all personal protection
equipment recommendations described in Sections 5 and 8. Local, state and federal laws
and regulations may apply to releases and disposal of this material, as well as those materials
and items employed in the cleanup of releases. You will need to determine which federal,
state and local laws and regulations are applicable. | | Note: | See section 8 for Personal Protective Equipment for Spills. Call (989) 496-5900, if additional information is required. |
|
| SECTION 7 : HANDLING and STORAGE | 01000144 |

For Spills:
Inhalation/Suitable
Respirator:
No respiratory protection should be needed. | | Other Protective: | For Spills:
Precautionary Measures: Avoid eye contact. Use reasonable care. | | Exposure Limits: | Component Exposure Limits:
There are no components with workplace exposure limits. | | Comments: | Traces of benzene (carcinogen) may form if heated in air above 300 deg F (149 deg C). Provide ventilation to control vapor exposure within inhalation guidelines when handling at elevated temperatures. Review the OSHA benzene regulation for detailed information on safe handling requirements. | | Note: | These precautions are for room temperature handling. Use at elevated temperature or aerosol/spray applications may require added precautions. For further information regarding aerosol inhalation toxicity, please refer to the guidance document regarding the use of silicone-based materials in aerosol applications that has been developed by the silicone industry (www.SEHSC.com) or contact the Dow Corning customer service group. |
