Containment/Clean up:
Determine whether to evacuate or isolate the area according to your local emergency
plan. Observe all personal protection equipment recommendations described in Sections
5 and 8. 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. Clean up remaining materials from spill with suitable absorbant. Clean area
as appropriate since some silicone materials, even in small quantities, may present a slip
hazard. Final cleaning may require use of steam, solvents or detergents. Dispose of
saturated absorbant or cleaning materials appropriately, since spontaneous heating may
occur. 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. Sections 13 and 15 of this MSDS provide information regarding certain
federal and state requirements.
Note: See section 8 for Personal Protective Equipment for Spills. Call Dow Corning Corporation, (989) 496-5900, if
