6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions For personal protection see Section 8.
Environmental precautions Collect as much as possible in a clean container for (preferable) reuse or disposal. Do not empty into drains.
Methods for cleaning up Sweep up with dustpan and brush off inert material, flushing the remainder with water. Absorb the remainder with e.g. vermiculite.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling Never weigh out in the storage room. Keep product and emptied container away from heat and sources of ignition. No sparking tools should be used. Never bring peroxide into direct contact with accelerator during processing. Weigh out and add peroxide and accelerator separately.
Fire and explosion Use explosion protected equipment. Keep away from sources prevention of ignition. No smoking.
Storage requirements Keep away from reducing agents (e.g. amines), acids, alkalis and heavy metal compounds (e.g. accelerators, driers, metal soaps). Store on accordance with local/national regulations. Store in a dry, well-ventilated place away from sources of heat and direct sunlight. Do not mix with peroxide accelerators, Do not mix with reducing agents. Keep container tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep container upright to prevent leakage.
Other information When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep working clothes separate and do not take them home.

10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
Stability A dangerous self-accelerating decomposition reaction and, under certain circumstances, explosion or fire can be caused by direct contact with incompatible substances or by thermal decomposition at and above the following temperature: +50 C.
Conditions to avoid Violent reactions may be expected with acid, alkali, heavy metals and reducing agents. Avoid contact with rust. Do not mix with peroxide accelerators. Do not mix with reducing agents.
Materials to avoid Use only Stainless steel 316, PVC, polyethylene or glass-lined equipment.
Hazardous decomposition products   not determined
Other information The SADT (self accelerating decomposition temperature) is an experimentally derived temperature at which the product in a typical package will undergo self accelerating decomposition.
