A chemical-grade pad for acids, bases and aggressive solvents, where a universal absorbent would degrade.
Construction
Chemical-grade polypropylene resists a broader range of aggressive liquids than the universal grade. The pad is designed to hold the liquid without reacting, so cleanup does not create a second hazard.
Where it is used
- Laboratory spill kits
- Acid and caustic transfer areas
- Solvent drum bunding
- Battery and plating rooms
Handling notes
Always check the SDS of the spilled chemical against the absorbent specification. Unknown mixtures should be treated as hazardous waste.
