IV. SPECIAL HANDLING AND WORKER PRECAUTIONS FOR STORAGE AND FIELD APPLICATION |
---|
1. Flammability: Non-flammable until >170ºF 2. Ventilation: Handle in a well ventilated space. Local exhaust is recommended if TLV’s are exceeded. 3. Skin and eye contact; protective clothing; treatment in case of contact: Avoid eye and (sensitive) skin contact. In case of contact, immediately flush with large amount of cool water of at least 5 minutes. Wear protective eye goggles when using any chemicals. Impermeable protective gloves are recommended for sensitive skin types. Protective clothing is not required. Rinse contaminated clothing, shoes, goggles, and gloves in simple tap water to remove any chemical residue. Avoid ingestion, breathing dusts, mists, or fumes. In case of ingestion drink several glasses of water. Do not induce vomiting. In case of inhalation, move affected person to fresh air. 4.a. Maximum storage temperature: 160ºF 4.b. Minimum storage temperature: -15ºF 4.c. Optimum storage temperature range: 40ºF – 110ºF 4.d. Temperatures of phase separations and chemical changes: No phase separations will occur. Continued exposure to direct sunlight may cause a change in color, but performance is not affected. |
V. SHELF LIFE |
---|
Unlimited if left in unopened containers stored at 40º - 110ºF and away from direct sunlight. |
VI. RECOMMENDED APPLICATION PROCEDURE |
---|
1. Application Method: E-SAFE© may be introduced with a pressure spray to cover the affected area. The contaminated area should be thoroughly moistened. Following the spray application the treated area should be soaked with water to facilitate penetration. Heavy soil such as clay will be cleaned by E-SAFE©, but tilling or aerating the soil will rapidly shorten penetration time. Sand or loam ay require heavy dosage with E-SAFE© because hydrocarbon migration is so rapid in these soil types. Treatment of fouled beach areas should have E-SAFE© sprayed on all contaminated surfaces. Any remaining hydrocarbons may then be effectively vacuumed or wiped away from the treated surfaces. Incidental wave action or rainfall will enhance coverage and penetration by E-SAFE©. 2. Concentration/Application Rate: E-SAFE© should be applied full strength. Beginning treatment for hydrocarbon contaminated surface is one gallon of E-SAFE© per 100 square foot of surface area. This dosage is recommended when the ambient temperature is 72ºF and humidity is moderate. Higher temperature or lower humidity will increase the need for repeated applications or a higher volume of E-SAFE© per application. 3. Conditions for Use: E-SAFE© works on all soil types and weather conditions that allow hydrocarbon penetration. E-SAFE© follows the same path, channel, or gradient as the contaminant. When visible detection reveals that E-SAFE© has been absorbed by, or has penetrated the soil, water should be applied to the site. E-SAFE© is soluble in water and also breaks the surface tension of the transporting water molecules. |
