Compatibility Nonwoven Oil And Universal Sorbents Pads Rolls Pillows Drum Top Covers Socks Flakes ADR Strips Spillosens sorbents rapidly and effectively remove liquid spills and leaks. As a precautionary measure, they help control the general hazards posed by spilled liquids in a simple and efficient way. They absorb a wide variety of operating fluids as well as a large number of acids and bases. Their absorbency amounts to approx. ten times to twelve times their weight. The different product types such as pads, absorbent pillows and socks permit their use as versatile instruments.
Compatibility Nonwoven Oil And Universal Sorbents Page 2 of 6 1. General Information Nonwoven sorbents are compatible with the substances listed below to the extent indicated and in the appropriate concentration (where this is mentioned). This list of chemical resistance is derived from various sources and should only be used for advisory purposes. Given the almost unlimited number of potential combinations of chemicals, influenced also by factors such as concentration and temperature, this list does not claim to be definitive and is only intended for informative purposes in predicting the behaviour of the chemicals concerned. 2.

A prompt disposal in containers suitable for isocyanate must be ensured. Standing of the substance in the container for a long time must be avoided. 6) 2-butanone partially dissolves the colour of the sorbent. 2017
