Spill Response Cabinet

Absorbs and controls liquid spills in the laboratory. For use on general laboratory reagents. Absorbs aldehydes but does not neutralize them.

Not for use on strong acids, bases or chlorines. Does not neutralize aldehydes.Use appropriate handler for these. Contact supplier for more details.Do not inhale absorbent powder dust, wear protective face mask.
Non flammable and non corrosive.

Isolate spill area.Put on protective clothing if available.Spread a portion around the perimeter of the spill to contain it.Liberally apply to spill. Allow approximately 5 min. for spill to congeal, mix together.Using a scoop and scraper pick up the spill. Place in waste disposal bag and seal with black tape provided.
Use cloth to ensure floor is clean and dry.

Put on gloves; mask/shield and apron provided: in response kit. Cordon off spill area with caution tape from kit. Apply Base Control to the spill around its perimeter to dyke the liquid, then apply inward being careful not to inhale vapors and avoid splashing of spill material. Wait for 5 minutes for handler to neutralize spill. Check pH with strips provided in kit. The neutralized spill material should be close to neutral pH (7). Use scooper/scraper to collect absorbed material and place in the yellow waste bags provided in kit. Use an absorbent cloth provided to wash the spill surface with soapy water; then use the second cloth provided to wipe dry the surface thoroughly. Place both cloths in the yellow waste bags provided. Remove apron, gloves and mask/shield and place in bags also. Then tie bags with ties provided and dispose in an authorized suitable waste management bin.
Wash hands thoroughly.

Must wear eye shield when using this product at all times. If splashed into eyes, flush eyes with flowing water for 15 minutes then flush with normal saline for 15 minutes, and seek medical attention. Skin contact. Wash with soap & Water.Internal. DO NOT induce vomiting. If conscious, give large amounts of milk and/or water. Keep warm and quiet. Seek urgent medical attention whilst continuing with milk/water fluid intake. If unconscious, DO NOT give anything by mouth. Seek urgent medical attention.

Be extremely careful using SOLVENT HANDLER on solvents with low autoignition temperature like nitromethane.

Put on gloves, mask/shield and apron provided in response kit. Cordon off spill area with caution tape from kit. Apply Solvent control to the spill around its perimeter to dyke the liquid, then apply inward being careful not to inhale vapors and avoid splashing of spill material. Wait for 5 minutes for handler to neutralize spill. Do not handle spilled material until absorption is complete. Use scooper/scraper to collect absorbed material and place in the yellow waste bags provided in the kit. Use an absorbent cloth provided. to wash the spill surface with soapy water, then use the second cloth provided to wipe dry the surface thoroughly. Place both cloths in the yellow waste bags provided. Remove apron, gloves and mask/shield and place in the yellow waste bags, then tie bags with ties and dispose in an authorized waste bin.
Wash hands thoroughly.

WARNING: When wet the solvent handler absorbs-Oxygen, exercise caution.Eye irritant:

Must wear eye shield when using this product at all times. If powder gets into eyes flush eyes will flowing water for 15 minutes then flush with normal saline for 15 minutes, and seek medical attention. Do not attempt to remove particles from the eyes and seek urgent medical attention.

Internal:

DO NOT induce vomiting. If conscious, give large amounts of milk and or water. Keep warm and quiet. Seek urgent medical attention whilst continuing with milk/water fluid intake. If unconscious, DO NOT give anything by mouth, and seek urgent medical attention.

POLYFORM-F
Formaldehyde Spill Control Agent. Eliminates hazardous vapors while it polymerizes formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde and other aldehydes.Polyform-F Use On:

Cidex
Formaldehyde Formalin
Glutaraldehyde Boiuns Fixative
• Zinc Formalin
• 5 Mac
• B-5 Fixative
These materials contain heavy metal which constitutes a hazardous waste. Spills of these materials must be treated accordingly.

Causes eye irritation and possible burns. For use by trained spill control personnel.
Do not mix with chlorine or chlorine type bleaches. Mixing with chlorine will liberate gas which is potentially dangerous.NOTE:
Because POLYFORM-F has the ability to rapidly destroy formaldehyde vapors, it lends itself well for use in areas such as operating rooms or otter areas that cannot be evacuated when spill occurs.Directions for use:

Consult MSDS for the spilled material to become familiar with its chemical properties and safety and health requirements. Select and wear proper personal protective equipment, including suitable foot and respiratory protection for the spilled chemical. Evacuate area as necessary to ensure safety of personnel. Control escaping vapors. Eliminate all sources of ignition and ensure that there is adequate ventilation available before applying product. Immediately add POLYFORM-F around its perimeter to prevent spreading. From the upwind side, cover the entire area from edge to edge at a ratio of approximately 1:1, completely covering the spill and taking care to avoid vapor and splashing. Do not mix. Allow to stand for 18-20 minutes. Dispose of neutralized waste in accordance with a Federal, State, and Local environmental regulations.
Dispose of container after use.

FIRST AID: Eyes:

Immediately flush with flowing being sure to hold eye apart and lifting eyelids to flush under them. If powder particles are stuck to eye, do not try to remove particles. Get patient to doctor or ophthalmologist immediately Continue flushing with wafer while en route to doctor.

Skin:

Wash with soap and water.

Internal:

If person is conscious, give small glass of water and induce vomiting at once. Once vomiting occurs, hold head lower than hips to prevent aspiration. Get immediate medical attention. If unconscious keep warm and seek immediate medical attention.

To Small Spills:

Rapidly apply P0LYF0RM-F to entire spill, and let stand on area for 10 minutes. Then dispose of neutralized waste as above.
