fluidfor chemicalsacid

Short description
SEPIOLITA is a porous mineral in granular form (medium grain 1 mm) with an apparent density of approx. 650 g/lt. It is used to absorb accidental spillages of oils, hydrocarbons, acids, aromatic substances, vegetable oils and other environmentally hazardous liquids on roads, pavements and industrial surfaces. The granulometry and density make it usable even in windy conditions.

USAGE METHODS
Spread the granular product evenly over the contaminated surface. Leave to act until saturation (the mineral changes colour from cream to dark brown). Recover the absorbed material with suitable tools and dispose of it according to the nature of the absorbed substances and current regulations.

SAFETY NORMS
SEPIOLITA is an inert mineral and does not require special handling for the product itself; however, during application, collection, storage and disposal, follow the legal requirements applicable to the absorbed substances and site safety procedures.

PACKAGING
Supplied in polyethylene bags of approx. 20 kg (32 lt) and 10 kg (16 lt). Store in a dry place away from sources of contamination.
