Chemical Absorbent Socks for Hazardous Spill Containment
These SERPRO chemical absorbent socks provide a practical way to contain leaks and spills involving acids, alkalis and other aggressive liquids. Supplied as a pack of 20, they are suitable for spill response arrangements in laboratories, production areas, chemical stores, workshops and other workplaces where hazardous liquids are used or stored.
```The complete pack offers an approximate combined absorbency of 80 litres, providing a useful supply for planned spill stations, emergency response equipment and replacement stock.
```Flexible Spill Control Around Equipment and Containers
Each absorbent sock measures approximately 1.2 metres long and 8cm in diameter. Its flexible construction allows it to be placed around leaking drums, machinery, pipework, storage containers and floor-level spills.
```The socks can be positioned end to end to create a larger containment barrier or curved around the source of a leak. This helps slow the movement of spilled liquid, protect surrounding areas and provide additional time for safe clean-up procedures.
```Designed for Aggressive Chemical Liquids
The yellow absorbent material is intended for use with a wide range of hazardous and aggressive liquids, including many acids and alkalis. Potential applications may include spills involving hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, sulphuric acid and hydrofluoric acid, subject to the concentration, temperature and conditions of use.
```The highly visible yellow colour helps distinguish chemical absorbents from general-purpose or oil-only absorbent products, making the correct spill response equipment easier to identify during an incident.
```Suitable Applications
These chemical absorbent socks may be used in:
```- Laboratories and research facilities
- Chemical production and processing areas
- Industrial manufacturing sites
- Hazardous-liquid storage locations
- Engineering and maintenance workshops
- Warehouses and distribution facilities
- Spill response stations and chemical spill kits
Quick and Straightforward Deployment
The lightweight design allows the socks to be carried and positioned quickly. They can be placed directly around the edge of a spill or used to intercept liquid moving across a floor.
```Following containment, suitable chemical absorbent pads, cushions or loose absorbents may be used to recover the remaining liquid. Used absorbents should always be handled and disposed of according to the substance absorbed and the applicable site procedures.
```Important Chemical Compatibility Information
Always check the safety data sheet for the liquid involved and confirm that the absorbent is suitable before use. Appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn when responding to hazardous chemical spills.
```Absorbency performance can vary depending on the liquid, viscosity, temperature and conditions of use. All dimensions, capacities and absorbency figures are approximate.
