Description
PetroGuard chemical spill hazmat absorbent is quick!
Known for its speed, quality, efficiency, and absorption capacity of over 4:1, PetroGuard chemical spill hazmat absorbent makes clean up of water reactive chemicals faster, safer and more cost effective.
With PetroGuard, common water reactive chemicals, hazardous hydrocarbons and silicone-based chemicals are quickly and efficiently:
- Absorbed
- Encapsulated (will not release under pressure)
- Solidified
- Immobilized
- Stabilized
Because PetroGuard acts so quickly, hydrolyzing is minimized/eliminated, reducing the risk of fire, explosion, and inhalation of toxic fumes.
Overall PetroGuard efficiently reduces operational costs because:
- It rapidly absorbs. Other polymers take up to 20 minutes to effectively absorb.
- Flammable or toxic vapor production is reduced or eliminated
- The absorbed chemical becomes impervious to water
- Clean-up is safer and requires less manpower
- Exposure time to hazardous chemical is significantly reduced
- It has a low volumetric increase of <=15% and rapidly absorbs. Other polymers swell <=27%.
- It is non-leaching and non-exothermic
- It is easily disposed of by incineration or landfill
Example of organics absorbed and immobilized by PetroGuard chemical spill absorbent include:
- Chlorosilanes
- Triclorosilane
- Titanium tetrachloride
- Butyltrichlorosilane
- Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons
- Ethyl acetate
- Trichloroethylene
- Styrene
- Naphtha
Suggested Methods of Application
Using a scoop or shovel, manually apply PetroGuard to the surface of the liquid chemical. Use an industrial blower for larger standing spills.
